In reply to the discussion: Pro-Choice GOP Warns Party That Contraception Fight Will Be A Disaster [View all]bayareaboy
(793 posts)51. I agree, except
Do you folks remember 2000 and 2004. It may not make a diff if we have Obama has to run against any of the GOP clowns. There is a fair amount of money out there to change at all levels from counting votes to the Supremes. The GOP fairly quiet in 2008, do you think they will be this time. I mean talk to a RePUG and ask him if all Presidents should be GOP and somehow he usually tells you that any means necessary to get some one to fight socialism and European thinking and that, well you folks know the rest!

This is just so offensive to me. Why do they think they get to decide for the women that they can't

Contraception is lead-up to abortion issue. Which traditionally throws 2-19% of vote to Repubs

Pick up the ones who like contraception instead of trying, failing to get the ones that don't. (nt)

Granting religious exemption loses nothing practically speaking; and gains some votes?
