5. I would make the 2nd paragraph the first one

Low-information single-issue people will likely not read the entire thing, so start with the good stuff:

-(Personal greetings and niceties)-

What I will ask you to think on and pray intently about -- you are advocating voting for a man who believes Jesus and Satan are brothers. All because he dislikes abortion as much as you do.

How do you reconcile this?

I appreciate your concerns about abortion, so I have to ask - did President Bush ever do anything to alleviate this? He campaigned heavily on this issue, and had majorities in both the House and Senate from 2001-2006. Nothing has changed! Governor Romney can speak to this issue, but he would be in the same impotent position once elected. As we share a faith, I have to ask you - have you considered all of the aspects of the Governor and his campaign? There is no such thing as pro-abortion, XXXXXX. The goals I support have been proven over the last 3 decades to dramatically lower the instances of abortion - and I am happy to send you Department of Health statistics to back that up if you are interested. One plan is working, the other is just campaign rhetoric.

As always, I love you dearly, and please understand if my reply seems a bit short (I am tired), but I am a liberal because of my faith, not in spite of it. I would love to discuss this with you further. Please feel free to call me at any time at XXXXXXXX.
