The Democrats' Inclusiveness Does Not Include Pro-Lifers

Your favorite Peasant has commented here on the dwindling
ranks of the pro-lifers in the Democrat Party. Here is an update:
Some time earlier the Democratic Attorneys General Association
announced to the party faithful that they will from now on give
monetary and strategic assistance only to AG candidates who
publicly commit and adhere to the Dem's pro-abortion orthodoxy,
which includes opposing any restrictions on abortion. Those who
stand for the right to life for the unborn humans or have even the
tiniest qualm about eliminating the tiny humans awaiting their births
need not apply for said help, nor even run for their states' AG offices
(or any offices, period); the Democrat Party will even run candidates
more to their liking against them in the state Democrat primaries.

Now, in Louisiana pro-life Governor John Bel Edwards was re-elected
to another gubernatorial term; this after having signed a bill that
requires doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges
at a nearby hospital. There in the South, Democrats that win statewide
races largely do so by demonstrating their independence from their
party's predominant national left wing -- especially its stand on
abortion.

Your supportive Peasant commends these courageous Democrats for
their principled and unwavering stands. Whether they will ever make
a comeback in their increasingly extremist party, or one day exit
the party to join the Republicans, form a pro-life third party, or
take some different political tack is something that only the future
can reveal, but their party is making itself more and more irrelevant
to the mainstream voters in our electorate --- who are pro-life or at
least have serious questions and concerns regarding the morality
of abortion --- and just happen to be the majority of said electorate.
Something's got to give; stay tuned.
