“Poll after poll, 67%, 69%, 70% of people want to keep Roe”

Is this Bullwinkle pulling numbers out of a hat?

This is not quite an answer, but here are the Gallup Poll results on abortion:

It's true the majority support Roe. But, it's also true that in 40 straight Gallup polls Americans want abortion banned or limited to race circumstances.

So, a large percentage of the population doesn't know what overturning Roe will do -- return the issue to the states and allow the states to restrict abortion based on the will of the people.

I don't think the USSC takes popular polls to decide cases.

What about the poll that says over 50% of all Americans want abortion made illegal in all or almost all cases?

Both polls cannot be correct..........

And anyone with half a brain knows Roe vs. Wade is horrible use (abuse) of jurisprudence, terrible law in itself. If leftists were honest, they’d want a ruling that could stand on solid legal ground. They know that cannot ever happen, so they make Roe v. Wade untouchable.......

Even Rubin doesn't believe this. She d@mn well knows there will be a significant number of states that will prohibit baby-killing and that even in states where it's allowed to continue a sizeable portion of the citizens there will finally have a voice.

No, Rubin's words are just another example of the alternate reality those on the Left live in. And, like most on the Left, she figures that if she really, really, really believes what she writes, and if she says it often enough and -- as important -- loudly enough it will become true! (... and she wants so desperately to be taken seriously.)

Maybe not.

Women see it as a personal freedom issue, even if they think abortion is a moral evil.

This is legitimate.

I agree that overturning Roe is overreach. You don’t have to make abortion illegal in order to convince people abortion is evil, stupid, and ultimately rare.

I think overturning Roe is an idiotic political objective. Why pick a fight you can win through other means at a lesser cost?
