Rudy's and "The Roe Effect"

Scott Ott at Scrappleface has one of his satire pieces focusing on Rudy's pro-choice stance:

Giuliani’s Pro-Choice Stand: Abortion Cuts Dem Voters
By Scott Ott on Theology

(2007-05-10) — Rudy Giuliani this week plans to come out of the closet as the first openly pro-choice presidential candidate among leading Republicans, boldly making the case to conservatives that abortion “may be the GOP’s most effective electoral tool,” according to campaign insiders.

“Abortion disproportionately kills off blacks, the poor and those who live in metropolitan areas that are traditional Democrat strongholds,” said an unnamed Giuliani campaign source. “While pro-life Republicans hate to see anyone chopped up and yanked from the womb, knowing that it affects mostly liberals may make Rudy’s pro-choice stand more palatable.”

You can read the rest of Scott's piece by clicking on the link above, but though this is a satirical piece, there's a lot of truth in those first two paragraphs. If you don't think so, go read about "The Roe Effect" and how abortion is helping thin the ranks of liberal voters.
