And we won't be able to do it by simply overturning them.

Well, yes we can change the law as easily as it was established.

The long term challenge will be to overturn the decades of moral decline that have so many accept that the death of a baby is a "choice"

I think Trump can be convinced to change his mind; I don’t think Hillary or any of the others can be convinced to change theirs —they are committed to their world view.

If you simply go for changing the law without working to educate those the abortion industry targets for aggressive marketing, the laws will be ineffective. Much like the laws on speeding--when is the last time you drove on the freeway during the daytime in good weather and observed everyone doing the speed limit? Also, if you even mention overturning the abortion laws, the pro-abortion lobby will come out in force, talking about the "war on women", etc., because we let them own the language on this topic.

If we want to overturn the laws effectively, we have to first own the issue. We have to talk about abortion as exploitation of women. We have to talk about how damaging it is to women's health. We have to talk about how the abortion industry cares only about profit, not human life or even women's health. We have to get young women to question whether "doctors" who murder children without a second thought really care about them and their health. We are making progress against the abortion industry (abortions are down by more than a third since the peak of 1.7 million per year), but we have to accept that it is still a struggle and simply overturning the law is not going to win the issue.
