From the comment section on the Daly caller:

“Someone already posted this below, but it’s worth repeating because this is what’s coming. It’s a perfect mix of Mormonism and the War on Women (and Mitt’s claim that he supports abortion if the mother’s life is in danger). Coincidentally, she also now lives in California (Allred’s stomping grounds).
Have you heard of Carrel Hilton Sheldon? If not, you should, and here’s why. She was a woman who supposedly needed an abortion to save her life. Mitt was a 36-year old bishop at the time and was adamantly opposed. She had the abortion but claims she was so traumatized by Mitt that she left the church.
Still don’t think this is “it”? It was just written about in the Daily Kos 2 hours ago.

This might be part of it. 30 years ago

Who would’ve thought the next Civil War would be between men and women? Looks like we’re headed that direction.

Weak. And even if it were true, Mitt has 'evolved' to where today he'd support it in the case of saving the life of the mother.

The GOP would counter this with the chilling audios of Obama as an IL State Sen., discussing what to do to the 'child, fetus, however you define it' that survives a botched abortion.

“She was a woman who supposedly needed an abortion to save her life”

This a pile of manure. Back in the late 60’s, abortions could be done if the mother’s life was in danger. And the psychobabbles determined that for any woman who wanted an abortion, her life was in danger because she might commit suicide if she had to have the child. It became pretty much abortion on demand, just as it is now.

My guess is that the process of getting pregnant and having the abortion messed her up more than the discussion she had with Mitt.

The whole abortion thing is BS. Even if Row were overturned, it would revert to the states. In the states where this is a BIG deal, they wouldnt change the laws anyway.

And...someone should explain that to the muppets.

The sickening part is that this will be enough to change some women’s vote. He advised her not to get an abortion, she got one anyway...what am I missing here?
Prolly a bunch of b.s. anyway.

That story would not attract any new voters to Obama, just secure the pro-abortion crowd that is already solidly in his camp. It might actually help Romney with those who question his pro-life bona fides. Those here, for instance, who claim they can’t possibly vote for Romney because of his prior pro-choice position.
