In words that I heard or news articles I saw on FR during the campaign, McClintock and Schwarzenegger did not say much different about specific aspects of abortion other than the general terms life/choice. Both of them are raising children, too, unlike Davis who never had or adopted any children.

Indeed, the partial birth abortion is one thing that many share opposition to, and I must admit, it was really nice to read this article.

It is in steep contrast to the pro-life protesters who showed up to Arnold's rally in San Bernardino, displaying billboards of partial birth abortion, and the images of corpses, yelling at attendees that this was what we were voting for.

The people in line knew Arnold's stated stance, yet telling the protesters was useless. I heard comments, and have to agree, those protesters were no better than Iraq when it showed the corpses of our soldiers. No one should use the dead for political gain.

Schwarzenegger drew supporters from all political persuasions, including moderate-liberal voters who are pro-choice. Many of them may never have thought about what happens during the gruesome process called partial-birth abortion. Most people accustomed to the liberal media's treatment of abortion -- that "choice" is good and that abortion is just another normal medical procedure.

If those graphic images changed the minds of any voters to oppose PBA, then the effort wasn't useless.

Some of the folks on FR, you would not believe the hassle they were giving pro-life supporters of Arnold. Canticle of Deborah even told me I'd have to justify my support to God someday, because I didn't vote for the pro-life candidate. I find it hard to imagine the Almighty would be mad at me for choosing the vote that would keep a pro-abortion racist from ascending to the governor's chair and handing out licenses to any jihadi who walked into a DMV and pretended to be from Tiajuana. She also said (and I'm not busting on her specifically, just using her as an example) that Arnold also supported the immigrant license law, and when I proved he was against it, she didn't budge a millimeter. Some people hear pro-choice and just lose their minds. Believing that California would suddenly become a safety zone for fetuses if McClintock won was Pollyannaism, but believing that you're better off voting for a guy who can't possibly win is just goofy.
