Among the topics that were not addressed in last night's debate on domestic policy was one that is very important to the Regular Guy. I am a Catholic (albeit somewhat newly minted... about six months ago) and pro-Life. The debate did not touch upon the topic of abortion. Obama is easily the most pro-abortion President, having voted against the Born-Alive Protection Act as an Illinois state senator. He is, in short, a proponent of infanticide, with views on abortion that are far outside the American mainstream.
I am certain that Romney was happy to focus on jobs and the economy, and I'm glad he landed so many punches on those topics. But I would like the topic to be raised, if only because otherwise we let the roughly 50 million children who have been aborted since Roe v. Wade remain silenced.
