The Libertarian Party is pretty much pro-choice, isn't it? Wasn't Ron Paul the party's presidential nominee a few years back--and now he's Mr. Pro-Life? So what's changed, I have to ask.

He was always pro-life. When he accepted the Libertarian party's offer to run for President under its banner, he made clear to them that the abortion issue was non-negotiable.
