    You could make that argument. But again, it has always been the case that the Constitution means what the Court says it does. And so long as it is protected by the right of privacy and until Roe is overturned or wholly eviscerated, then it is what it is, and our elected officials, being bound to defend the constitution. have an obligation to defend that right as well even if they'd make other personal choices for themselves.

    I guess it's down to the unelected lawyers to make constitutional challenges then.

    Because 5 robed men with an agenda say there isn't? Perhaps Romney thinks there ought to be. It's certainly less of a stretch than the invisible so-called Constitutional right to privacy. I don't need a penumbra to see that a fetus is a little growing human.

    Btw, thanks for the "valid point" comment earlier.
