There's not really anything a President can do about abortion. It all comes down to his positon on judicial activism. The decision to overturn Roe is based on whether the Constitution is the foundation of law. The President can appoint strict constructionists, or he can appoint judicial activists.

Incidently, judicial activists could just as easily have ruled that no state has the right to legalize abortion, just as the Warren court did rule that no state has the right to criminalize it. Both decisions are wrong.

Even someone like Giuliani who is an abortion supporter would nominate judges that would overturn Roe because of his position on judicial activism. The ones who scare the heck out of me are the ones who would put a Souter or a Ginsburg on the Court.

That's exactly how I feel. McCain IMO is more likely to screw up with judges than Rudy. And with tax cuts, and with "torture" of terrorists, and with immigration.

Just think what kind of nominees we'd get out of John McCain.
