I feel for the babies conceived by progressives. For selfish reasons I don't mind if they abort them. Murder is wrong so I will oppose it in all cases. Progressives killing their children does prevent a lifetime of child abuse.maineman » 11 Aug 2023, 7:20 am » wrote: ↑ Precisely!
This special election clearly sets the stage for the November election in which a constitutional amendment protecting abortion rights has already qualified for the ballot. Ohio voters all knew that Issue One was brought by the pro-lifers in Ohio and they resoundingly shot it down. One would think that the November constitutional amendment constitutionally enshrining reproductive rights in Ohio would pass by a similar margin.
Again... the right used Roe for decades to ramp up THEIR base and bring the pro-lifers out to vote for anything that restricted abortion, and, when the referendum happened on a general election day, the abortion wedge issue was a great GOTV strategy that helped the GOP up and down the ballot.
Now, with Dobbs, the GOP dog has caught the car. And The pro-choice advocates, who are usually aligned with Democrats, will benefit from Dobbs just like the GOP did with Roe.
If the GOP thought that the furor over Dobbs would somehow dissipate over time, the special election in Ohio should disabuse them of that pipe dream. They should simply ask themselves whether the furor over Roe went away over time. Dobbs will be a GOTV goldmine for the Democrats for decades.
