[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So can anyone think through for me how this could possibly be good for Republicans? It seems like trouble all the way down - but is there something I am missing?

Is this supposed to energize forced birthers to get out to the polls -and if so why not make it a 6 week ban, or a zero week ban? What's the strategy?[/quote]

15 week polls well with average American.  Republicans can cast pro choice as blood thirsty baby killers if they support abortion access after 15 weeks.  Can also claim “state rights” by saying states still have the choice to lower week threshold, just not raise. Don’t agree, just heard that’s a possible spin on it. [/quote]

But no - this doesn't guarantee the right up to 15 weeks, while prohibiting it outside of extraordinary circumstances after that. I could see that possibly, maybe being popular - if it were bipartisan. But this is just a straight ban, with no corresponding rights. That's not at all popular.[/quote]
