What our fellow conservatives don't get is that Huck's support is about stopping abortion. Even Reagan and H.W. Bush failed on SCOTUS nominations. No more failures please.
"What I accomplished as Governor proves that there is a lot more that a pro-life President can do than wait for a Supreme Court vacancy, and I will do everything I can to promote a pro-life agenda and pass pro-life legislation. If I'm saddled with a Democrat Congress, I'll veto any pro-abortion legislation they pass. I will staff all relevant positions with pro-life appointees. I will use the Bully Pulpit to change hearts and minds, to move this country from a culture of death to a culture of life. I have no desire to throw women in jail, I just want us to stop throwing babies in the garbage."
So you consider Antonin Scalia (appointed by Reagan) and Clarence Thomas (appointed by Bush 41) as "failures"? Interesting...
I can see that, but I like Fred's approach better - let the states decide. Otherwise I'm also sensing that Huck's embrace of the Fair Tax also might be driving some folks to his side.
