At previous conventions, I’ve seen groups of feminist reporters sitting in a circle listening to Ann Stone’s words of wisdom. Not this time. There’s not much fight left in the pro-choice wing of the party. Significant portions of the party are pro-choice: the governors of New York and California, for example. But they are not heavily invested in challenging the pro-life definition of the party the way Governors Weld, Whitman, and Wilson were in 1996. The current pro-choice governors tend to support the ban on partial-birth-abortion opposition to which ban effectively ended the careers of Weld and Whitman.
