Millions of pro-lifers will bolt the GOP if it abandons its prolife core.

In other words, you're saying that pro-life voters would prefer the totally unacceptable Democrat position on abortion to a less-than-perfect Republican position.

Last time I checked, being prolife doesn't require one to be a complete idiot.

A pro-abortion Republican Party would very quickly be a dead party.

Like I said, go out and actually win a political campaign before flapping your jaws at me about what wins and loses elections, boy.

If you want a pro-abortion party, go over to the Dems, Poohbah.

I'm prolife. Unfortunately, I also have an IQ greater than a carrot, which means that I don't throw a temper tantrum if I don't get my own way each and every time.

What if tommorrow, the GOP "faithful" are given a choice between two "anti-gun," anti-Second Amendment candidates?

Will you then cave in to the whims of your Party and say, "oh well"??

And what if your almighty GOP also held the position that U.S. Sovereign Borders aren't worth being defended? (oh that's right -- that's this President's position, isn't it?)

You need to respect the fact that everyone has their certain "litmus test" issues. For instance, would you vote for a man who held your positions on domestic issues, but was very soft on the war on terror?

It's reprehensible that you and many others here are backing a pro-choice candidate and risking the Oval Office being lost to the Democrats, quite possibly even Hillary Clinton.
