GOP anti-choice fight!
6:38 PM PT: Newt and Mitt in a smackdown over who is more pro life than the other. And Mitt is taking some serious umbrage about being accused of being quasi pro-choice.
6:40 PM PT: To claim he is really deeply committed to being antichoice, Mitt Romney is giving the least convincing answer I have ever seen him give on any topic. He's muttering about how "now is not the time to be questioning integrity."
6:42 PM PT: Rick Santorum says Romney is just "checking the box" and that in contrast he's fought in the trenches on social issues. Mitt Romney says it wasn't hard to be pro-life in Massachusetts. Well, sure, especially given that he campaigned as being pro-choice!
6:44 PM PT: Hahaha, the Paulites got pissed off that their guy wasn't given a chance to talk about abortion.

6:45 PM PT: Ron Paul mutters about "drugs and pornography" causing abortion, even before it was legal.
6:46 PM PT: Santorum and Paul are fighting again over who gets to be less irrelevant than the other. Combined, I bet they don't get as much as whoever finishes second.
6:47 PM PT: Haha, Ron Paul just told Rick Santorum he was "overly sensitive" to think that something Paul had said previously was a criticism of Santorum.
