But there's independents to consider.  Def pro choice moderate GOP stands a chance.  MAGA would lose outright with DT. Biden doesn't stand a chance v someone who can pull Dems, Rep and Independents which would be a moderate GOP candidate.

Pro choice moderate GOP candidate?  Who would that be?[/quote]

The way out for a Republican candidate is to simply reiterate that abortion is a state issue, not a federal issue. Which is what Dobbs did. I don't think abortion is going to be an albatross for Republicans if they frame it as a state's choice. California is free to do as it wishes. And so is Missouri. Don't think too many votes will be won or lost with that position. But any candidate advocating for some kind of nationwide ban or severe restrictions is dead in the water.  [/quote]

Therein lies the problem. Congressional Republican leadership is on the record as advocating a nationwide ban. The question is bound to come up, and just about any D presidential candidate will frame it as the veto being the only thing standing in the way of such a ban. And even if a R presidential candidate also says that they will veto it, most people of voting age will not believe them, and they will lose support from their base.[/quote]
