Time to run another LTTE past my loyal critics...
First, the letter:

Want fewer abortions? Vote for Kerry.

You may not be aware of the fact, but there are fewer abortions performed during periods when Democrats control the Federal government than when Republicans are in charge. This has been true ever since reliable and stable abortion figures became available, in about 1977.

Why is this the case? Apparently because people are more likely to have abortions when they are in dire financial straits, and most people do better economically when Democrats are in office.

And now the theory:

While distracting the audience with a couple of handwaves
about abortion, I slip in and plant the notion that Democrats mean
prosperity.
