I'm waiting for the poll that asks, "Do you care about Roe vs. Wade."  That's what matters.

Agreed. If they did care enough they would have voted for Clinton so that she could confirm Obama's rightful appointee to the Supreme Court.

Part of the problem is that the median American voter seems to want impossible things when it comes to abortion policy. There's no way to really translate the aggregate average view into an actual policy.

It seems like the only way you could make everyone happy would be to create a situation where abortion is always legal but no one ever actually has one.

This is the case for most things American voters want actually. They simultaneously want lower taxes, more public services, but no spending cuts!

Oh, and by the way Americans - Nobody actually cares what you want unless you actually vote based off what you want. This is what happens when you vote based off "wanting to have a beer with" and "charisma" and "they have the right letter next to their name" and "my family told me to vote this way" and "time 4 a change"...nobody elected actually gives a sh**t what you think.

Brutally honest.
