Wait, Murtha opposes abortion rights?

Advertisements [?]

from Wikipedia:
"Murtha is a Democrat with a relatively populist economic outlook, and is generally much more socially conservative than most other House Democrats. He opposes abortion, consistently receiving a 0% rating from NARAL; however, he supports stem-cell research."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_murtha

I've just read this elsewhere, too. I did not know this. Is this OK? I realize he doesn't have any real say over national policy, but...do we want him to lead our party in the House of Representatives?? I'm not advocating Steny Hoyer, either, I'm just saying...
