I think the GOP response to the abortion issue should have been ... “That’s not what this election is about. The economy is in shambles, unemplyoment is too high, the debt is too high, gas prices are too high, ...”
The media snookered them into the abortion issue and skewed it all to make the Dems look compassionate and the GOP look hardline.
I believe that you are greatly in error. The election was about FAR more than the economy. The case for that “FAR more” was not made. THAT is why we lost.
