This is a good question you raised on another thread and I am bringing it here for that reason. Will you agree that Romney himself can make this statement because now he is the leader of the party.

I was thinking of Romney when I posted that, that he could make that statement (that he finds abortion immoral, but he is not not going to pursue any steps to make it illegal). It may really be how he feels in the first place, and it might add some consistency to his somewhat shifting positions on the issue...

But Romney is definitely not going to say it before Nov 6 (if ever)... Why rock the boat now?

If elected, he could do that. No more primary elections...

But he will not do so and hence you cannot expect another GOPer to do it. Ask Sen. Richard Lugar why he would agree with this post. In today's Republican party, even Ronald Reagan is a liberal.

I don't think liberal enters the equation here (talking about GOP). It is an argument between conservative and libertarian ideas. Reagan years may have been more libertarian, GWB years more conservative, and now the tide is shifting back to libertarian (IMO)...
