re: #110 Fairly Sure I’m Still Obdicut

And since the GOP has been pushing for massive abortion restrictions everywhere they can, it seems a weird hope that McCain wouldn’t have pushed for them nationally.

The fundamentalist GOP base was not at all pleased with McCain’s record on social policies, including abortion, and was prepared to run a third-party candidate to make their point.

I suspect that he had to really cave in on issues like abortion to guarantee their continued support.
