“I’m pro-life; it would be great if we could just leave it at that.”
Mitt Romney is growing exasperated with all the questions around his conversions to Pro-Life. I like Governor Romney and think he has a good chance of getting the nomination and winning the presidency in 2008 but do have some concerns about the depth of his commitment to pro-life principles. I can defiantly understand how someone could change their mind as they learn more about abortion and the destruction that does to both the child and the mother. We see that everyday.
However, Governor Romney has to understand the hesitancy of the voters. This is too important of issue. The next president will have the opportunity to nominate one, maybe more, justice to the US Supreme Court. The choice of nominees will impact basic fundamental rights as the right to life for unborn children as well as far reaching decisions on the direction of the country. As Congress becomes more and more partisan and unable to govern in an efficient manner, citizens are going to turn to the courts. And we have seen that there are plenty of judges who are ready and willing to legislate from the bench.
