No one ever thought Democrats would do it.
But desperate poll numbers called for desperate measures.
And Democrats made one huge admission that left Republicans jumping for joy.
Democrats think the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade will serve as a political boon for the left.
A recent Monmouth poll found 80 percent of Americans believe the country is on the wrong track and the Republicans hold a seven-point lead over Democrats on the generic ballot questions.
NBC’s polling data found the GOP leading Democrats by a whopping 17 points on the question of which parts voters are more excited to turn out in the midterm election.
Combined, those numbers portend a red tsunami this November and Republicans winning far more than the five seats in the House of Representatives and one in the Senate necessary to take back control of Congress.
Democrats viewed abortion as their last chance to motivate their base and turn swing voters against the Republican Party.
Abortion has never actually been a winning issue for Democrats.
In the 2021 Virginia Gubernatorial Election eight percent of the voters listed abortion as their top issue.
And even though Democrats won every election in Virginia since 2009, 58 percent of the voters supported Republican Glenn Youngkin, who campaigned as a Pro-Life conservative.
Youngkin won the election by just two-and-half points meaning that the winning margin came from voters who listed abortion as their top issue and supported the Pro-Life candidate.
But since the corporate media is so invested in the culture of abortion – the Democrats upscale, college educated base treats abortion as a rich person’s luxury – Democrats mindlessly follow along with the media’s false narrative that America is a pro-choice nation.
And Democrats doubled down on their extremism with the pro-choice caucus distrinuting new talking points rejecting the Bill Clinton framing of abortion as “safe, legal and rare” to “safe, legal and accessible.”
NEW: The Pro Choice Caucus has just sent out messaging materials to House Dems on Roe draft.

Clinton won two elections with that talking point as “safe, legal and rare” made it seem like Democrats opposed abortion except in the most dire cases.
Planned Parenthood – the leading abortion mill in the nation – also sent out the message that pro-choice Democrats should now refer to themselves as “pro-abortion.”
The same Planned Parenthood post that the above screenshot comes from recommends that "pro-abortion" is preferable to "pro-choice".https://t.co/DolTtI3CMv pic.twitter.com/gY5zphBfCW

Democrats declaring themselves as the party of abortion without limits is politically toxic.
A recent Economist/YouGov poll found just 25 percent of Americans support abortion without any limits.
Democrats just launched their Hail Mary pass to secure victory in the midterm election.
But the Democrats last-ditch effort is based on a bad reading of the polling data and the mood of the electorate on the issue of abortion.
