[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also very pro-choice.

That said, your misguided, single-issue voting friends are probably making the best strategic choice.  The last time Roe was before the SCOTUS, it was saved only by Sandra Day O'Connor, who stated that even though Roe may have been incorrectly decided, it had put into place a societal expectation of a right that should not at this point (more than 3 decades later) be revoked.  She is now gone.  If the issue comes before SCOTUS again, and they can find one more vote, it will be overruled.

Yes, but that's exactly my point!  If I'm correct, we have always maintained a majority of republican-appointed justices since RvW.  I heard this but have not found a source to clearly verify.  If they haven't found a way to overturn it, I really don't think they ever will.  My guess is that republicans don't actually want it overturned.  Once that's done, it's not on their platform anymore and their christian base starts to dwindle.  Also, I think they forget the fact that overturning does not make abortion illegal.  Just throws it back to the states.  [/quote]
