older post but IMO need to know before you vote.
Rand Paul is a United States senator who would like to be president. One thing he would not like to do as part of convincing voters he is the best candidate, though, is explain where he stands on abortion rights. We know he's against abortion, because libertarian-leaning Republicans never seem to think women's control of their own bodies falls under the category of individual rights to be protected from government interference.
"The thing is about abortion — and about a lot of things — is that I think people get tied up in all these details of, sort of, you're this or this or that, or you're hard and fast (on) one thing or the other," Paul said.
he left out "i'm dancing and know if i say i don't support them i lose women and considerate males" he needs to know if i coulda woulda shoulda doesnt fly in the 21st century, half azz remarks with no answer to posed question is easily recognizable and will come home to roost at the most inopportune times like campaign stumping. it also can be construed as you are in support because you're not but knowing it's not favorable chose to lie by omission.
