Not any more, not in the slightest. Romney’s campaign website now has his “pro-life pledge,” which states, among other things: that abortion should be available only in cases of rape, incest, or medical necessity when the life of the mother is at risk; that <em>Roe v. Wade</em> should be overturned; support for the Hyde Amendment (no federal funding) and Mexico City policy (no support for non-abortion family planning services to groups that use non-federal dollars to provide or advocate for abortion in the international arena).</p> <p>Very sad to see how the quest for ultimate power can make people turn their back on deeply-held, personal beliefs.</p>http://nonsequiteuse.tumblr.com/post/8643487964http://nonsequiteuse.tumblr.com/post/8643487964Mon, 08 Aug 2011 08:14:09 -0500abortionpoliticspro-choice<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpkp74zlAp1r06na1o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>I do hope so.
