Abortion and Florida Key Kerry Concerns Now

Events Forcing Abortion Issue on Kerry

With a divided nation on abortion Kerry doesn't want this issue but can't avoid it.

Sen. Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.) yesterday released the results of a study that examined nearly two dozen votes and bills to determine which senators supported Catholic teaching most consistently. Kerry's record was the most pro-Catholic. Durbin and his staff denied that they cherry-picked issues to make Kerry come out on top. They said they spent three weeks combing the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' annual legislative report and looked at every bill on which the bishops took a clear stand, from abortion and war to raising the minimum wage.

Meanwhile Kerry learned lessons from Gore on how to take back Florida. (el - I would say avoiding spanish speaking media was Gore's key problem.)
