The issue with women voters is they don't want to be told to carry a child when they don't want to. The right can scream all they want about how this is morally reprehensible, but a vast majority of women are in this category. Doesn't mean they think abortion is a good idea. They just don't want the option unavailable if they really want one. And this position is not exclusive to liberal women. A good number of independent and suburban women also side with this argument.

One thing seems certain. Abortion on the ballot is generally the GOP's election kryptonite.

Very true. Unfortunately, it’s not just liberal women, but I would say that it’s mostly women that have never had children, just a guess on my part, but they are adamant about this issue and think Republicans are just horrible for trying to take the choice away. It never occurs to them to argue and promote using birth control, abstaining and all the things that you can do to not be put in this situation. They are really brainwashed on this one.

I would agree, my wife and I have three children, but she always tells me “it’s my right to choose.” I counter with “what right to choose life does the baby have?” We are both Christian and Catholics. It’s a conundrum.

It's a loser. As simple as that.
