As a retired businessman who worked in the convention industry, Horgen said he doesn't think the bill's sweeping restrictions on abortion - especially its lack of exceptions for cases of rape and incest - reflects well on the state to outside visitors.

Companies and organizations from outside the state could look at South Dakota as "going off the deep end," Horgen said.

"People who want to have conventions there ... I think they'll want to go elsewhere," he said. "If I were running a big hotel complex that had conventions frequently, I would be worried."

SD can't afford to lose business. I hope they get the message loud and clear.

PS This entire abortion issue is a well-timed political event used to distract American people from the real issue of Bush's poor performance.

Maybe but the Christian right is biting at the bit to overturn Roe vs Wade.
