Kari Lake just pivoted on abortion (somebody must be reading the polls)

OPINION: After a year of calling for abortion to be outlawed, Kari Lake now says it'd be "wonderful" if abortion was legal as long it is rare.

"SNIP.......

Well, it took awhile, but it appears that Kari Lake is learning from the master.

Blake Masters, that is, the Senate candidate who, upon winning his Republican primary, promptly gave a scrub-a-dub to his views on abortion.

Like Masters, Kari Lake has been a stanch advocate of outlawing abortion. Or she was.

There she was last year, extolling the virtues of Texas’ heartbeat bill, which bans abortion after detection of a heartbeat, about six weeks -- even in the case of rape or incest. Lake called for Arizona to join Texas in having what was then the most restrictive abortion law in the land

.......SNIP"

1. She still wants to outlaw abortion but like

a good GQPer, she’ll lie to get elected.

10. Exactly. nt

2. She has a block in her pocket. This is some sort of reach to get loose votes.

Her block is staying so she’s throwing out some crumbs.

3. Too late for all but the most ignorant to be swayed,

[JustAnotherGen]

4. Rare means

Its rare if it is outlawed.

She's lying.

5. They succeeded in getting Roe repealed

Show the earlier footage. They staked out positions long ago. This newfound "moderation" must not be allowed to stand.

6. She is truly vicious fascist.

[ThoughtCriminal]

7. It might cost her votes on both sides

Pro-choice voters won't trust her and anti-abortion voters won't be motivated.

8. between what happened in Kansas and now Hershel Walker...

I mean they have been screaming at the top of their lungs all year about banning abortion and jailing or suing women or doctors or uber drivers.....

now all of a sudden they pivot.

whatever gets them the votes, they don't really give a shit about abortion.

9. She's Lying

Hopefully voters see through her supposed flip flop.

11. Se has no neverminds about abortion either way. She's concerned which way the wind blows voters.

12. A temporary change of mind.
