The key point of why Mr. Muth brought up the abortion issue is that it is a devisive issue that needlessly divides people that otherwise would work together politically. And having your candidate get at least 1 more vote than his opponent is how we control policy and get conservative judges appointed. Being "dead right" (losing the election but keeping moral purity) is not a goal to aspire to. Being in a political winning position to effect your desired change in policy is.
Abortion is a GOP policy. You've already won.

Hey, thanks for the bumps.
I think I'll leave you alone today until you reach 40% of the thread's bandwidth.

You really are a piece of work. What makes you think that I am pro-abortion? Regardless of your rantings I am a "government shouldn't be in the abortion business" type that hopes that prospective parents would make the correct choice to bring an unexpected baby into this World rather than aborting it. That said, it is inappropriate for the government to dictate the outcome of a choice that ought to be made between a woman and her physician.
Spin your opinion of me as you might, but I believe that my view is more consistent with the vast majority of voters than your hardline stance or that of the radical government sponsored free abortions for everyone types. I think the GOP is responsibly trying to capture the hearts and minds of the larger voting block, that will in turn allow them to set policies that "keep the government out of the abortion business," thus protecting the majority of unplanned babies. Your all or nothing approach only prolongs the state of affairs that you find so objectionable. And that is the real tragedy.
