The way a President fights abortion is to appoint judges who uphold the rights of the unborn.

Sorry. That's the lazy man's way of pushing an agenda. First, there are no guarantees that the president will get a chance to appoint any Supreme Court Justices. Since Roe v. Wade will have to be overturned at that level lower court judges don't matter.

Second, there is no way to guarantee which way a judge will vote. You can look at his record but it's not going mean anything when the case is put before his bench.

I still say if a candidate comes out with the platform to aggressively ban abortion he has no chance.

There are lots of judges besides those in the Supreme Court. And yes, there is no guarantee how the USSC will vote. That's why it is just as important for Federal District Court and Apellate Court judges to be appointed by a pro-life President. There is no need for a President to be an activist pro-life candidate. It is more important to elect pro-life congresspersons in the House of Representatives and in the Senate, backed up with pro-life strict Constitutionalist judges. There is no room for a pro-abortion President in the Republican party, that is why so many of us resist Rudy Giuliani and his ilk.
