A new poll suggests that social issues could hurt Obama in the swing states.
President Obama’s support for abortion and taxpayer funded birth control could kill his chances to win swing voters in Ohio, Virginia, Wisconsin and Florida, and possibly his reelection, according to a new poll.
Likely voters by a 49 percent to 25 percent margin, or two-to-one, say they are less likely to vote for Obama because he included taxpayer funding of abortion in Obamacare. A whopping 54 percent are less likely to back him due to his vote against a law to give equal treatment to babies born alive after a failed abortion. And 69 percent reject the administration’s mandate that forces faith-based institutions to provide insurance that covers birth control.
“This survey shows that a few straightforward, specific facts about President Obama and abortion shock the collective conscience of swing voters in battleground states,” said pollster Kellyanne Conway. “His support for taxpayer-funded abortion, opposition to Born-Alive Infant protections and ‘intimidation through regulation’ foisted upon religious organizations draws the ire of between one-half and two-thirds of the voters surveyed,” she said.
Almost everything boils down to a social issue. If the democrats want to talk about the GOP’s war on women, then have the GOP talk about the democrat’s war on babies/unborn children. I still cannot understand why conservatives are so unwilling to call abortion what it truly is. How can democrats be for the underdog and the defenseless when they support the killing of the unborn.
Republicans sure can be stupid sometimes.

Have you forgotten? They are all but officially known as “The Stupid Party,” and that is by their friends.
Solyndra’s crony capitalism, Trayvonn’s race baiting, Fast and Furious and other attempts to subjugate the Constitution, the LIES-LIES-LIES of Dear Leader’s whole friggin life and administration….there is an aircraft carrier load of issues to hang around this mooslim’s neck….but, does Mitt have the gonads to do it? Either he will expose this creep for what and who he truly is, or he will pull a McCain and keep with the “He’s really a nice guy, but…” routine, AND LOSE.
For God’s sake Mitt – get rid of your establishment-loser advisors, if you want to win.
I should have said “subvert’ the Constitution…its late, been up 20 plus hours working on a paper…tired.
