How many repubs. could be anti-choice?

How many dems. are pro-life? Kucinich was until he ran for Pres.

How about DNC. I can feel the scorn throughout DU as I type the letters.

Man, we've got some many different types with us--old black panthers, old Marxists, hippies, peace-niks, Wall-Streeters, 1%s--really, you name it. I loved Jimmy Carter and loathed Clinton. But voted for both of them.

I'm in a very red part of the US. I know what repubs do. I know how they vote and how they sit out. I know about their single-issues (and know how their candidates manipulate that especially when the voters hate the candidate; I'm guaranteed to see an anti-gay proposition when there is a weak repub. candidate.).

So I may be stereotyping, but there's truth in the stereotype. Look at Andrew Sullivan. He's considered a Marxist by repub. standards. He moderate/conservative by mine. Nixon would be a tree-hugger today. Teddy Roosevelt? Oy.
