Colorado Republicans clutch at straws

People seem surprised about the recent push to get a pro-life bill on the 2006 ballot. To me, the reason is obvious. Republicans bungled their traditional issues like national security, balanced budgets and small government. So they're clutching at non-issues like steroids, missions to Mars, gay marriage, immigration, and an abortion bill that has already been shot down twice. "Colorado voters in 1998 defeated a late-term abortion ban. A bill on the subject died last year in a legislative committee." Republicans are wasting taxpayer dollars proposing a bill they know will fail in an effort to get religious people to the polls. It's all politics.
