Mitt will say anything to get elected and he NOW knows that most Republicans dont care what he says now, they just want O gone. So he almost has a blank check by the R side.
Regardless I dont want Federal laws dictating abortion to the states, homosexuality, anymore than I want them dictating election laws or education laws. That is the states job,
I dont want to replace a Dem King with a R king.
Overturning Roe, defending DOMA, cutting abortion funding. etc is the role the Feds should play. I seem to remember Palin saying the same thing in 2008. Romney said the same thing as now in the primary, overturn Roe.
I dont see any future R POTUS nominee running on outlawing abortion at the Federal level anyway. They all seem to have trouble explaining over-turning Roe to average voters.
Marriages need to be recognized in all states, polygamy was banned before slavery in early America at the federal level, and child killing and slavery cannot be legal anywhere in the United States, not even California and New York.
