Thanks for your article on Scott Brown today. At 41 years of age, I just gave my first ever political contribution. I still couldn’t imagine making a donation to the RNC, but I wrote a check for Scott Brown. I’m a dyed-in-the-wool pro-life voter in Tennessee. I have been President of the Board of Directors for a chain of crisis pregnancy centers. I would have never imagined donating to someone who is not strictly pro-life, but these strange times call for desperate measures. I wasn’t donating to Scott Brown as much as to “Vote 41″ to stop the insane health care monstrostiy. Your article very helpfully pointed out the prudential choice that needs to be made by pro-lifers.
