The radio ad will not air until mid-July, two weeks before the
Republican National Convention in Philadelphia, which begins July 31.
But the group is taking advantage of the Mother’s Day holiday to unveil
the spot, which quotes former first lady Barbara Bush as saying she does
not think abortion ought to be in the GOP’s national platform, in hopes of
earning free media attention.
     Mrs. Bush’s comments came last December during an interview
with ABCNEWS’ Cokie Roberts on This Week.
     “I believe in states’ rights and I don’t think it should be a national
platform. There’s nothing a president can do about it anyway, in all
honesty,” Mrs. Bush said during the broadcast.
