And a lot more republican. I've not seen abortion ever animate Latino people politically like with Anglo white people. Their Christianity isn't so monolithic. They face the same choice white southerners faced in the 90s... Do you want to be better off or do you want to be white? I agree that our messaging is implicit and reactive, not a good combo.
