GOP presidential candidate and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley said Wednesday she would sign a federal abortion ban into law if she were president, but she dismissed the possibility of such a ban materializing, noting it was unlikely to get the necessary 60 votes to pass the Senate.

Haley’s comments are the clearest answer she has provided about her abortion position since she launched her campaign in February, becoming the only woman in the primary field so far.

“No one has been honest” about how difficult a ban would be to achieve, Haley said at Saint Anselm College in Manchester, N.H., on Wednesday, The Associated Press reported.

“It would take a majority of the House, 60 senators and a president to sign it,” she said. “We haven’t had 60 Republican senators in 100 years.”

Kiss your presidential aspirations goodbye.

1. This is an example why I'm glad the filibuster still exists.

OTOH, what's to stop a Republican majority in the Senate from getting rid of it?

5. No dumbass, we don't need more republicans anywhere

And presidential candidate, step to the microphone and tell America why it is yours or the Catholic Churchs business whether a woman or a 12 year old rape victim has an abortion

And tell us your views about doing away with the separation of church and state since the Catholic Church and others don’t hold up their end of the bargain.

Please, presidential candidate, tell us.

6. I'd say the DNC should use that in attack ads...

But since she has no chance of being the rethug nominee, I guess it’s a moot point.
