From an Associated Press story this morning about evangelical Christians being happy with John McCain's choice of Sarah Palin as the Republican vice presidential candidate:

Not only does Palin oppose abortion as a matter of policy, but she chose to give birth to her youngest child, a son, after a prenatal exam indicated Down syndrome. Studies show that about nine in 10 pregnant women who are given a Down syndrome diagnosis have chosen to have an abortion.

"That will resonate in a big way," said Quin Monson, a Brigham Young University professor who studies religion and politics.

Resonate with whom, Mr. Monson? Most Americans - 60 percent of poll respondents, according to Gallup - support a woman's right to choose abortion.
