(33,016 posts)The pro-life issue has been a stickler for many of us, and it hasn't helped that the Catholic church has gone full-tilt GOP when really the only issue they care about is abortion.
I have finally distilled it down to this: as long as they aren't anti-choice I can accept a Dem candidate's opinion on pro-life. It's basically my own position having been raised a Catholic myself. I believe that abortion would be a morally wrong choice for me, but I also believe that it's every woman's right to choose whether she wants to be a parent or not. No state government should be allowed to deny a woman's right to choose. If enough Democrats can see their way to accepting the "pro-choice-y" position of a pro-life candidate, I believe we can move forward.
