List of Tea Party Republican candidates who support no exceptions on abortion
Not even for the life of the mother or in cases of rape and/or incest.

I think Sharron Angle and Christine O'Donnell are two, but I forgot the other ones - was it Joe Miller, Ken Buck & Mike Lee? I can't find the list that Rachel Maddow had from the other week.

Thanks

2. The list
Of course, if their daughter was raped by a black muslim, they would have the "secret abortion"...


Call it the Palin Standard, the new normal creeping into Republican abortion politics—opposition even in cases of rape and incest. When Sarah Palin was plucked from obscurity two years ago to become the VP nominee, McCain’s senior policy aides did not know that she held this extreme position, which is shared by only 15 percent of the population, according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC poll.

Now at least six Tea Party-backed statewide GOP candidates—Nevada’s Sharron Angle, Delaware’s Christine O’Donnell, Colorado’s Ken Buck, Kentucky’s Rand Paul, Alaska’s Joe Miller, and New York’s Carl Paladino—back this absolutist stand.

4. Didn't Henry Hyde pay for his daughter's abortion?
Or was that another anti-choice Republican?

And, Paladino is the guy with the email problems, if I'm not mistaken.

3. Joe Miller was one..and the list is horrifying. These people are not the least
bit reluctant to air these outrageously Sharia like views. These are the American Taliban.

5. Don't waste your time digging up dirt on Lee
He's up by 27 points, and Utah doesn't care how extreme you are, as long as you're not a Democrat you are good there.
