Meet the Obama Pro-Lifers
They are spearheading the effort to tell pro-life voters that Obama will reduce abortion.
(Page 2 of 2)
In sum, there is no tangible reason to fear that McCain would veto abortion-alternative funding. McCain could make it even more clear by publicly stating his support for specific types of funding, in addition to those he mentions in his platform.
The WOPL argument is therefore irrelevant to this presidential campaign. Yet WOPLs will persist. They will continue to gush about Obama's emotional attractiveness. They will also revert to the old liberal Catholic attack against "single issue voting," by which the only issue they don't consider important is abortion.
But history is against them. In the past two presidential elections, more rather than fewer devout Christians decided to vote pro-life. That's why liberals adopted their new "WOPL" persona in the first place, and that's why it will fail in 2008.
