This is how far they’ve moved to the right on abortion

[Senator Tammy] Baldwin said Walker’s views on abortion are more restrictive “than any Republican president in recent times.”
Walker supports outlawing abortion in all circumstances. The three most recent GOP presidents each supported exceptions, such as allowing abortion to protect the life of the mother.
We rate Baldwin’s statement True.
If you want to know what the hardcore anti-abortion people believe, just look at that statement: today the right to life of a fetus actually supersedes the right to life of a woman. Think about that. They have so little regard for the human being in whose body the fetus gestates that they believe it’s better for her to die than to have an abortion. Not that we didn’t know that.
And all the Villagers think The Great Whitebread Hope is the moderate who can win the race. Because meatloaf.
