Democrats for Life Statement on the Election

(from Tom Berg) "Pro-Life Democrats to Democratic Leadership: You Cannot Win When you Alienate 21 Million People [pro-life Democrats] in your Base."

The release includes a chart showing that the number of pro-choice Democratic members in the House is roughly the same now as in 1980.  The Democrats' loss of power in the House has correlated with the loss of pro-life members (and voters).

Yes, I know, this has been said many times before and the Democratic Party has ignored it.  As Kristen Day, DFLA's executive director, says in this post-election analysis: "I feel like we are in a time warp."
