It is real simple.
The bottom line is the abortion issue.
The old KRA group went soft on abortion - wanted to increase membership numbers and donations by accepting "moderate" Republicans.

And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That's how I saw it, and see it still." - Ronald Reagan's Farewell Address (January 11, 1989) |
