When Kansas and then Ohio thoroughly shoot holes in your platform and you're the dominant party in those places, maybe you should start re-thinking your platform.

No, it's the voters who are wrong

Greene's takeaway was literally "we're losing because we're not extreme enough on abortion.'

I guess that means Republicans will start proposing that any woman who even thinks of getting an abortion should be thrown in prison and any woman who suffers a miscarriage should be tried for murder.

Then, they'll wonder why they are losing even worse!

There are already states that have been trying to criminalize miscarriages unless they can be "proven" to not be the result of an abortion.

Guilty until proven innocent

I dare them to push for a federal abortion ban. Make every Republican vote on it. Let's get it on record so voters know exactly who to replace.

Wonder what the odds are in Vegas that that harpy has had an abortion herself...

It's ok, Ohio Republicans have already signaled that they intend to put it on the ballot again to reverse the will of the people.

It won by such a large margin clearly abortion was supported by some Republican voters too. It won't be reversed.
