That's a shame, because Roe v. Wade was not a valid interpretation of the Constitution; indeed, it wasn't an interpretation of the Constitution at all. It needs to be overturned, no matter how many Americans say otherwise, for the sake of the integrity of the Court and the Constitution that it interprets.

No. We're not going to violate the rights of women and set back the clock for the sake of your own interpretation of the constitution.

This. I don't care about religiously following the constitution, either- what matters to me is that women everywhere have the right to decide what happens to their bodies and the right to live a normal life without men forcing them to have a child they don't want. Of course, I'd prefer it to be enshrined in law and not a simple ruling, but I'm not going to support overturning it because of "integrity" or whatever. Too much is at stake to care about it.

Also, the poll doesn't surprise me- the public has moved to the left on social issues far faster than politicians think. But many of these 71% just don't care enough to withhold support from pro-life politicians or even get out and vote, and these 23% just have too much sway in Republican primaries.
