I agree. The abortion issue was settled a long time ago and the majority of women will not vote for a pro life candidate, especially if the candidate is against abortion for victims of rape, incest or life of the mother. In addition, most people don’t care what gays do or don’t do relative to marriage. The far right will dig in their heals for their ideal candidate and they will lose.
“the majority of women will not vote for a pro life candidate”
This is a myth.
The DC area, governmentopolis, is entirely different. Due to the gov’t jobs, women outnumber men. It is not a nice place for a young woman. I was single and worked at the Pentagon in the 70s and 80s. Single men there (ok oversimplification) treat new young women moving to DC for a career as “fresh meat”. [As many married men do also, lying about that fact.] Most of them do not have a prayer of meeting a nice single potential husband — there.
IOW the area is not a normal demographic. It is distorted. It is over-represented by women, and within that number, of single women, and within that number, of lonely women who can never achieve a normal family life if they want their “career.”
don’t flame me — just saying — an observation
The Far Right? me thinks you are lost. Free Republic was the Tea Party before there was a Tea Party.
You don't win by compromising your principles, you win by making the other guy compromise HIS principles.
And One Prinples FR stands on is Pro-Life, something which has been lacking in this thread......
