Romney has the same record as Fred Thompson on abortion. Both ran as pro-choice candidates. Both have a 100% voting/veto record on the matter.
To Thompson’s credit, his is a longer-running 100% record than Romney’s.
I fail to see why I should hold a grudge against either for shifting their views towards life. The whole thing smacks of ridiculousness.
What's ridiculousness about someone proudly claiming he supports abortion rights until this election cycle?
Thompson was in Washington voting pro-life while Romney was telling us in MA how prochoice he was. And what exactly would a state governor have to do with abortion rights, which are Federally-protected?
