What’s the point in voting GOP if they just adopt dem policies?

Absent a revival or a return to reason and virtue, I’m reasonably certain we’ve got the best we are going to get with SCOTUS returning abortion to the legislative regulatory power of the states.
I understand why you say that but I used to say the same thing (only I was more adamant about it) that we would never see Roe v Wade overturned, yet here we are.
And we are farther away from reason and virtue than when I was claiming that we would never see it.
Again, the idiocy of abandoning this plank is twofold.
1. It wouldn't do any good. Not for this nor probably the next two or so POTUS elections. And by then the Democrats will have moved so far out on the limb that they will want to "vote for the right" to kill already born children. We going to follow them out there, too? Because they have no limit.
2. Everybody supposedly hates the "GOPe" precisely because they failed to uphold so many conservative positions. Now the same populists who claim they abandoned the party for populism because of that want to give up the only real plank that Republicans have made any progress on that can't be immediately undone with a new EO.
Kind of makes me think they're FOS for claiming that all along.

Yall better leave OP alone, because the guy is right...
The right is loosing a great number of votes because of the abortion issue... Women will (out of spite) pay higher gas, food etc prices just to say they have to right to control their bodies.
Even if the are too old to have babies at all.

This is wrong. I’ve seen other polls showing abortion is 4th or 5th in importance for all women. There is no way suburban women have abortion this much higher women in general.

No they aren’t. The narrative is very strong, however so people believe it.

Like it or not, young women don’t like the threat being made to have a baby.
The dog caught the the car on this issue and the Repubs don’t know how to handle it.
If Trump loses, it will be on this issue.

This is a very good point. It’s hard to think that through logically to carry out the compromises made to that horrific conclusion.
It’s sort of the mindset the Episcopal Church went through. People comprised again and again, every time saying that’s the last straw. Until the next compromise. Like frogs in a boiling pot, many who didn’t leave were complicit in ordaining homosexuals to the priesthood and to the episcopacy and woke up in an apostate heretical anti-Church.
You make very good points well worth considering.

Imagine a media that treated abortion as it should all political debate issues - as something complex and not feigning support to one side or another and actually reporting the facts - late term abortions, body part sales, etc. All of the news and situations around abortion.
Then imagine reporting that women are a "voting block," around this issue.
Imagine a more balanced media approach to the electorate and the issues, rather than what we see today.
Is it ACTUALLY a divisive issue - or is it created and managed to be one? And do you think progressives would give up creating another divisive issue that they color, relabel, and recontextualize for low information voters?

You’d think suburban women would be more worried about the insidious creep of the ghetto into their enclaves via Sec 8. Suburban women live in suburbs to get away from the unusable schools of the city. To vote Democrat is to vote for the policies you ran away from when you moved to the suburb.

Abortion was the number one issue for my 75-year-old sister. She also was opposed to Republicans on the basis that they were Nazis.

Like it or not, nobody is making them "have a baby."
Like it or not, just because someone likes something doesn't mean they ought to be able to do it.
Like it or not, abortion ends with a dead human being. Every time.

Then abortion wouldn't have made any difference to her. If it was somehow taken off the list, whatever #2 was would simply have replaced it and she would have kept right on hating.
Just like the women polled will do if the Republicans puss out on this one.

I've actually made the same point to my fellow conservative friends. I'm as pro-life as they come, but abortion is down my list right now.
It's like RFKJr has been saying, the uniparty wants you to vote for their side by shouting about shiny objects to distract you. Keep us fighting over cultural issues that are like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Anything that starts like that is a loonfest.
RFK Jr wants single payer health care, isolationist foreign policies, to "transform" (read, "defund") the police, believes in climate change, but opposes nuclear power initiatives.
Y'all just like him because he's as conspiracy-porn addicted as y'all are.
He really has very little in common with anybody who would vote conservative.
Posted on 8/26/24 at 4:49 pm to wackatimesthree
Yes, some of his stuff is not what I'd agree with, but he's not for defunding the police, so if you believe that you've got an axe to grind. (probably because you're a prog who is mad at him)
He's also not against nuclear energy if it makes economic sense and is "safe" -- I'm not sure what he means by this as it's pretty damn safe and a lot more efficient of an investment than wind, for example.
Even if I disagree with RFK on some things, he gets the big things RIGHT. Health, healthcare, and the incentives in the system are an absolute mess -- we are a nation being led by the nose by big pharma and big ag. Needless warmongering and international interference for the sake of feeding the defense engine. And last but not least, the deep capture of our govt and its agencies by special interests, most of whom are downright nefarious and opposed to the common man.
