Three quarters of those polled support abortion rights, while less than a quarter, 23%, oppose abortion rights.

    Barrack Obama said it best: "No one is pro abortion!"

    According to that poll, a majority of those polled, 53%, support a reasonable approach to abortion rights, and 22% support unlimited access to the abortion option.

    Pro-life identity does NOT equal anti-abortion, anymore, Focus on the Family.
