No, she will be a Constitutional hardliner, since abortion, among other findings, is not mentioned in the Constitution.

No you missed my point.

When I say that "at least she will be an anti abortion hardliner" I mean that she will adhere to the church position that is anti abortion.

The Constitution leaves it up to the states.

“The Constitution leaves it up to the states.”

Does it? I’m as much of a Tenth amendment, states’ rights person as there is, but consider the following:

Amendment V: “No person shall ... be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law”

Amendment XIV: “ nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

One can argue that these two provisions, especially taken in tandem, prohibit the Federal government and any state from legalizing abortion.
