If the GOP abandons the pro-life plank, it will be because "conservative Christians" have failed to supply enough votes to be worth the price tag.

Now pro-family voters don't provide enough votes to keep the RNC machine moving? Okay, I give up. Why not just go where all the votes are and drop the whole "conservative" pretense and we can all be liberals, or the indistinguishable "fashionably moderate?" After all, Bill Clinton got votes--he was elected twice. If you can't beat them, join them, and be part of the "winning team." I guess that's what Rove and his RNC liasons are doing.

Out here in California, they can be relied upon to supply votes if the candidate has no chance of actually winning.

If the candidate suddenly looks like he might win, they manufacture some imagined sin against their beliefs and work like hell to split the vote and get radical pro-aborts elected.

They then complain that the GOP "has a vendetta against pro-life activists" when the GOP doesn't trust them after such stunts.

And as someone who is pro-life, I'm getting pretty damn sick of it.
