I never understood why conservatives are so concerned about abortion. I say let lefties abort their own as much as they want! Do you really want millions more lefties?

#6 I am thinking Christie’s words about Trump 3 weeks ago vs his comments the last few days.

Yeah, it’s called opportunistic.

When I saw Christie this morning I thought he was referring to Christie Todd Whitman, the former New Jersey Governor, and “Rising Star”. She said she would vote for Hillary if Trump was the nominee.

No, I thought that, it is the woman who is CEO of Hewlett Packard.

Well lets see...

Ted has the Beck and Whitman vote.

That should cost him about 7200 votes per state.

It’s not a matter of political practicality but the taking of innocent life.

I hate to break the news to you but abortion is low on the list of the most important things in most peoples’ lives. And IF making abortion illegal meant having MILLIONS more lefties such that Dems would be in power for the rest of your life, would you make that tradeoff?

I don’t particularly care for Whitman’s politics, but I do respect her record at eBay. She was educated at Princeton, and Harvard Business school..eBay grew from 30 employees when she took over to 15,000 when she left. She was President of eBay when annual revenue went from $4 Million to $18 Billion.

I’ll listen to her on business issues anytime.

“Where to begin.”, lol

So you’re telling me that if a political candidate (now or in the future) had exactly the same political views as you on EVERY topic, except for abortion, that you would not vote for him/her??

If you’re asking whether my only analysis on a prospective client is whether he or she is anti-abortion, then no. But it is the first thing I look at. I cannot understand how any other right is more important that the right to life. It colors everything else.

Abortion and gay marriage are LOW percentage issues for most voters. Most care about jobs and the economy FAR, FAR more. There is no such thing as the perfect candidate.

And btw, those first two low percentage issues both mean less lefties in the future, and that’s a good thing imo.
