Doesn't have to. Doesn't take many of us. @LizMair: @chiproytx The polling doesn't back that up.

@BrianHDarling@chiproytx I doubt social conservatives will let pro-abortion Dems run the table just bc GOP softens on#SSM. -
@LizMair@chiproytx - They may stay home and not try to aid either of the two parties. -
@BrianHDarling@chiproytx Anyway, I would personally conclude that those who do are faux-pro-lifers. Let's have more abortion bc OMG#SSM! -
@LizMair@BrianHDarling So one is a "faux" pro-lifer if one believes it is wrong to support a pro-SS"M" candidate b/c it's now hip to do so? -
@chiproytx@BrianHDarling I just don't think that many legitimately pro-life folks would really not vote Portman over Hillary Clinton. -
@LizMair@chiproytx@BrianHDarling This happens all the time for centrists who don't believe in the pro-life cred of the R. Like w/ McCain. -
@StevenJDuffield@chiproytx@BrianHDarling In actual fact, it's normally social moderates that sit out/vote other party over social issues. - 13 more replies

@BrianHDarling@chiproytx You agree that social conservatives will ditch the GOP over#SSM support even w abortion as an issue? -
@LizMair@chiproytx - Some will. -
@BrianHDarling@chiproytx Not many. I have never met a social conservative who isn't far more concerned about abortion than#SSM...

@BrianHDarling@chiproytx One of these things is a life and death matter (abortion) and the other is not. -
@LizMair@BrianHDarling@chiproytx "Risk" is withdrawal fr politics; all focus on family, community. Already happens, unclear if accelerates -
@StevenJDuffield@BrianHDarling@chiproytx Yeah, what I'm saying is that while GOP remains mostly pro-life, I don't think that risk exists.
