Duh. If something is illegal and you do it, you get punished. How big of a deal is that? This could even help him in the primaries because most Republicans are pro-life.
Yes. And the hysterical leftists trying to turn this into a "gaffe" will never vote for any pro-life candidate under any circumstances so why worry about what they think? If the GOP is pro-life you can forget about the pro-death vote - and why would we want to pander to that?
