"Mitt Romney said Tuesday he has no plans to push for legislation limiting abortion, a softer stance from a candidate who has said he would "get rid of" funding for Planned Parenthood and appoint Supreme Court who would overturn Roe v. Wade.

“There’s no legislation with regards to abortion that I’m familiar with that would become part of my agenda,” the Republican presidential nominee told The Des Moines Register in an interview.

The Romney campaign walked back the remark within two hours of the Register posting its story. Spokeswoman Andrea Saul told the National Review Online's Katrina Trinko that Romney "would of course support legislation aimed at providing greater protections for life."

His statement could put him at odds with congressional Republicans who have made limiting abortion central to their messages. His own running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), has introduced bills to restrict access to abortion. And the Republican Party platform toughened its anti-abortion stance earlier this year."

3. whatever, his appointments to the courts WILL, and the President needs to make this loud and clear

and NOT waver, or it will be game over

It is more than just about abortion, it is about women's rights

4. Contraception

So many women, especially young, were outraged that contraception could EVER become an issue. Some of us have been saying this for YEARS. Religous right wants to ban contraception too.

THIS issue needs to be replayed also.
