(I say this because he was challenging a legal ruling in this case, not to start an 'ethics' argument)
Also, he's wavered in the past on these 'traditional' values - when he ran for Senate in MA in '96 he said he would always support legal abortion, even though he was personally against it, because of the experience of a relative . . . he now wants to ban all abortions except in cases of rape (or threatened life).
Just saying, these are the kinds of issues he'll have to deal with to be elected.

Perhaps my liberal ilk should throw flip-flops at him like people did to Kerry in 2004.
