    Roe will matter if Democrats make it an issue they run on. (Republicans could also do that but there is every indication that they don't want it to be an issue). Parties have some power to raise profile of issues.https://twitter.com/MollyJongFast/status/1524006457292861440 …

    I just think all these pieces saying Roe won’t matter in the midterms are premature. Things don’t matter until they do.

        Then I guess it’s good Pelosi just passed Women's Health Protection Act in the House to protect abortion rights.

        Never bet on Dems actually doing the smart thing with messaging.

        Why would republicans make Roe an issue if, by that time, the ruling has come out and the fire for overturning it has finally quenched nationally? They'll need something like inflation to keep their voters fired up.

        Agreed. Dems need to force Roe to the forefront, make it absolutely clear what republicans are doing, and not let this fade as, sadly, all news stories eventually do.

        Wait what? GQP hands Dems the biggest platform ever on a silver platter, and it won't matter? Dems are already running on it. How can it not matter?

        Roe has always mattered and Democrats MUST keep it alive NO MATTER the Supreme Court ruling...they must address ways that each state can support it moving forward

        In TX where Democrats have made abortion a national issue, it is not an issue. Abbott would LOVE for Democrats to make it an issue so he can increase his margins on the border.

        This is true for 2022 because we're already in election season and most of the candidates are locked in. But if Dems don't do anything, I expect to see an unprecedented number of primary challenges in 2024, and not just from super leftwing candidates.
