Actually, nobody on the left threatened to kill him, told him he was satan’s spawn, etc…or if they did, he didn’t say anything about it. Had he gotten those kinds of calls, it would have solidified his opposition to the bill.

Stupak, the Michigan Democrat whose last-minute compromise on abortion guaranteed passage of the bill Sunday, said callers have left messages for him saying, “You’re dead; we know where you live; we’ll get you.”

“My wife still can’t answer the phone,” Stupak told POLITICO on Tuesday. The messages are “full of obscenities if she leaves it plugged in. In my office, we can’t get a phone out. It’s just bombarded.”
