Yes I watched the video.

I still state that every conservative Senator that has a chance to win in Massachusetts or a similiar liberal state has done this. I've heard it many times. Look, I am a cynic about all politicians. Duncan Hunter is conservative because he comes from a conservative district. The same with Tom Tancredo. These guys would have no chance in a liberal district unless the compromised and everyone knows with a wink ;) wink ;) that if you are a conservative running for Senate in a very liberal state, you have no shot if you come out and say that you will govern as a pro-life.

But, I would rather have these guys run with them nominally supporting pro-abort laws than have the Ted Kennedy's of the world winning. The bottomline for me is getting pro-life judges on the supreme court and we would have a better chance if we can get Senators who are nominally pro-choice but will support constructionist judges.

The cynic in me believes that this is the game that conservatives play in such states in Massachusetts and we turn the other way when it happens. Why do we not recognize this is what happened with Mitt?
