Stupak Gave Women A List of Representatives to De-Select.
Primary them. How are they different to having a Republican in their seat?

Health
Jobs
Decent Housing
A working economy.

That is not a purity test, it is why people elect Democratic candidates. If they do not deliver, they lose, Losing should not mean they go further to the hard right. No Democratic voter thought that by electing Stupak they would get the Taliban.

5. Stupak made abortion a choice for the rich.
I hope he finds the money for those who now have to bring a baby into the world.

9. Obama Wanted This Amendment
That's good enough for me. Let's try to support our party nominee and president. This is a historic moment.

10. It's not good enough for me. He won't be getting an abortion anytime soon, will he?
That pisses me off even more.
