If you're pro-choice, pray for Gregoire

Pro-choice leaders in this decidedly pro-choice state have been holding on to the gubernatorial recount roller coaster with white knuckles, crossed fingers and the breathless hope that Christine Gregoire's 129-vote lead will hold.

It really doesn't matter that he supports severe restrictions on a woman's right to abortion, candidate Dino Rossi assured them during the race -- on those few occasions when he could be pressed to discuss a subject he smoothly managed to largely avoid.

"I'm not running for Supreme Court," Rossi repeatedly said, selling himself as a moderate focused on jobs and business while nimbly sidestepping prickly social issues.

1. What could a governor

possibly to to restrict womens rights? The only place that can happen (at least right now) is in the courts.

2. If it goes to the individual states, it could become a problem, no?

3. Yes, but

I don't see that happening.
