"Abortion foes’ pledge is snag for Romney; He has refused to sign, and GOP rivals attack" by Theo Emery, Globe Staff / June 21, 2011
WASHINGTON — The antiabortion pledge was drafted by a group called the Susan B. Anthony List, a nearly 20-year-old organization named for the turn-of-the-century suffragist who also wrote about her objections to abortion. The group backs candidates who oppose abortion, serving as a conservative counterpart to the group Emily’s List, which aids candidates who support abortion rights.

The newly minted pledge — the first the Susan B. Anthony List has authored — has been signed by five GOP candidates: US Representatives Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and Ron Paul of Texas, Newt Gingrich, former House speaker, Tim Pawlenty, former governor of Minnesota, and Rick Santorum, former senator of Pennsylvania....
Romney’s decision spurred a rebuke from the organization and quickly roiled the presidential waters....
Over this? Something the Democrats could filibuster in the Senate?
The real roiling is Ron Paul and his talk on the economy and wars. He may not reach double-digits because of the rigged machines, but his voice is at least raising those issues. It's sad to see the AmeriKan media continually try and turn them back to anything but those issues.
