Paige - I was just about to write the "same post"! I don't understand why abortion is a deciding factor in an election - abortion is a legal act, written into law, and I don't think it's about to change any time soon. Shouldn't whether you are pro-life or pro-choice be a personal matter, and not how you cast your vote? I can see doing work in whichever camp you beling to - but why vote for a candidate based on that alone? Are you really voting "pro-life" - its not like that candidate is going to take that issue and tackle it legally. What about all the other issues?

The problem with the abortion topic is everyone can come up with reasons/stories/personal accounts/religious reasons which support their beliefs...can we ever really expect everyone to be on the same page about this? What good comes from attacking each other, or electing someone based on this alone?
