McGrath,
The emotion in this case is real, but it's complicated.
We have divisions on both sides. Our party is both pro-life and murder/bort and there are pro-life democrats (French-Catholic).
The dems are all pretty cohesive however, and most of the GOPers are pro-business but split on social issues.
I'm not sure they are smart enough to pull off political theatrics in any credible manner.
