"A new poll shows Republican John McCain — riding a wave of enthusiasm for his vice presidential pick Sarah Palin — pushing past Barack Obama, wiping away the advantage the first-term Illinois senator enjoyed coming out of the Democratic National Convention.
Palin, in her first term as Alaska governor and the Republican Party's first-ever female nominee for vice president, electrified last week's Republican National Convention with a sarcastic, slashing speech that denigrated Obama's readiness for the U.S. presidency and energized the deeply conservative Republican base.
Palin, who opposes abortion even in case of rape or incest, was a virtual unknown outside Alaska until McCain elevated her to the national stage as his surprise choice to join him on the Republican ticket 11 days ago."
If you're for or against abortion, that's your thing. However, to make a woman who has been raped give birth to that child opposed to aborting it... I couldn't ever imagine having to deal with that. Good luck telling that kid why daddy's not around.
