Reply #90: Roe v Wade--how important? And to whom?

[Donna Zen]

To put McCain one heart beat away is hardly a small matter; in fact, by assenting to the name on the ballot is already to concede the high ground. Trees and forests are all easy anologies, but life and death are concepts beyond clever campaign tickets. If women are no longer valued by the Democratic party just let us know.

Let us look at it this way, would you expect the African American community to support a ticket with Kerry/Helms?

The office of VP is only powerless while Kerry stays in his as you well know.

But beyond that, the notion that somehow the Democrats are so berift of qualified vp candidates that they must run with a Repub somehow makes us look stronger and therefore more electable is a laughable concept.?
