Hey, at least the fact that these Southern 'Rats would CONSIDER voting for the bill is better than many Kansas "Moderate" (sic) Republicans who wouldn't consider it whatsoever. But, still, your point is well taken.

"This article shows that pro-life Democrats are vanishing even on a local level."

They're coming under pressure from the same extremist groups that hold a gun to the head of the 'Rats at the national level. Simply put, being pro-abortion is an absolute necessity to run as a 'Rat or you risk getting the carpet yanked from under you, no matter how local a pol. What a shame.
