On the Smitherman hypothetical: How would the aborted have voted?

statesman.com

"And so it is that Barry Smitherman, chairman of the Texas Railroad Commission and one of three Republican candidates to replace Greg Abbott as attorney general, delivered a quite extraordinary speech as the keynoter at the Texas Alliance for Life’s Leadership Circle Luncheon on Aug. 15, in which he said, among other provocative things, that Republicans would have benefited from the votes of those who were aborted had they not been aborted."

2 dumb ass Texans

Excuse me, but one of them was a Canadian.

Down here in Texas we don't send our best and brightest into politics. Maybe in the next election we'll outsource the other senator. :))
