The Mississippi challenge at the U.S. Supreme Court to Roe v. Wade, which guarantees the right to an abortion, is likely to succeed. Especially when you have conservatives - including one from my hometown, which is so reflexively Republican it doesn't have a single Democrat on its town council and has a slew of anti-Biden and anti-COVID-restriction signs on its lawns - determined to overturn it.
But, that's not a given. I'm sure Chief Justice John Roberts, who wants to preserve the Court's integrity, can get another conservative justice to join with him and the liberal justices to come up with a compromise ruling that can let Roe v. Wade stand and still uphold mild restrictions in more conservative states.
What if Roberts can't do that?
Well, in that case, if you're a pro-choicer . . . you're toast.
Oh yeah, don't think you can get Republicans voted out of office in the midterms because the only people who vote on this issue are . . . Republicans.
The end.
