These are simply my observations. Debate grows tiresome because no one is going to change their minds.

First, it's a huge mistake to paint this as a "Catholic" issue or the imposition of Roman Catholic morality on the entire country. Most Catholics I know, and as an Italian American living in the Northeast I know a lot, are ambivalent about abortion law. They don't believe in it for themselves but don't want it to be illegal for others. The Southern Evangelicals are far more involved in repeal and restrictive state laws than the Catholics.

Second, even in some dead Red States, the divide is close to 50/50 on permitting abortion when conception is from rape or incest, according to NYT polls. The same polls indicate that while the great majority of Americans support some access to abortion, they also favor restrictions similar to what exist in Europe, which are far more restrictive that what currently exist in Blue States. I believe Germany restricts abortion access after 12 weeks which is less than the 15 in some Red State laws. So stating that Americans favor unlimited access to abortion, i.e. the status quo in Blue States, is not accurate.

Which leads to my final thought on this. Notice all the hyperbole is emanating from the edges? Notice who is conspicuously silent? Republicans not associated with the Religious Right. Why? They realize if Roe vs. Wade is repealed, it could completely fuck up what otherwise looked to be an historic debacle of a midterm election for the Democrats. It would mobilize the vote and possibly save Democratic control of Congress.

Which is exactly how the system is supposed to work. You vote out those who support beliefs contrary to your own. It took 50 years of working the system for the Religious Right to be on the verge of declaring victory over abortion. I'm betting doing the same from the Blue side will take a whole lot less.
