Whoa! You may not have followed the thread to see what my post was about. The comment I replied to was that the withdrawl would mean O'Connor on some big decisions coming up. Unless there is a case within the next couple of months that would have overturned Roe v. Wade, the downside doesn't extend to babies. The better likelihood is that you can have a reliable anti-abortion vote in a truly well qualified Justice around when the issue comes up over the long term, who will also rule right on everything else.
