Pro-Life Democrats?

[Pike1483]

If their are any Pro-Lifers out there that are Democrats, please explain this to me. I don't understand how anyone who claims to be Pro-Life can be a Democrat since Democrat Platform supports abortions. To me, abortion is about human life, and human life is a big enough issue for me not to be a democrat. I would think that for most Pro-Life democrats also. The only thing I can think of about Pro-Life democrats is that they care more about the other issues/platforms of the democratic party than that of human life. Comments? I really would like some insight on this, and I'm not trying to start a big argument over abortion on this, there are plenty of other threads about that. I mainly want some insight from Pro-Life Democrats as to why they are pro-life, and why they are democrat. Also, I'm not implying that you can't be pro-life and democrat, so don't get mad, I just really would like some insight on this.

Note: I'm a Pro-Life Republican just so there isn't any confusion.
