Welcome back to -- on the foxnews.com.

Live our question of the day today that we want -- to weigh -- -- -- is -- -- candidates stance on abortion play a role in how we you vote results that I as I look at them right now 54%.

Or so saying no other issues -- more important but I healthy 42% saying yes -- -- a fundamental role.

So it you -- got a lot of comments from you guys on this as well.

It's overseer of an issue that is being brought to the forefront.

By the representative told -- came down in Missouri and his.

Mom.

Shocking to most people comments on the rape and abortion.

So how does the media covered this Judy Miller -- you can tweet act JM free -- is here even -- screen just went.

Dog he is yeah I thought that -- fact I'm talking about half brother anybody especially I didn't.

Anything the media is covered this story well it's all -- and all the time -- no matter what the political tilt.

All of the publication are the broadcast it's hard to turn on your television without seeing mr.

Aiken and yet another effort to kind of hang on.

To receive -- at this point ten nomination race that not only wants him to Iran and especially the Republican Party it's and Mike can't.

One of our viewers who wrote in just a little while ago saying look you know we're talking about eight can make in -- -- other scandals.

-- there involving Democrats -- -- but I guess the point of this one.

Is that it does go to a policy position it's not just a personal scandal this is a guy who has made to most people's minds outrageous comments about a a policy issue that affects more than half -- -- Absolutely and this using gift tourists to Barack Obama running every -- agrees on that.

Because if you want to.

-- -- -- because everybody's talking about abortion pro life.

Amendments whether you're for them -- against -- this is not where the Republican Party wanted to be which is why the press reported today.

That the vice presidents to me -- me he mr.

Ryan called his good friend right and urged him begged him to withdraw from the race which so far has had no affect -- And that's an intro at present talking to we would -- Cameron was mentioning that earlier saying well it's not actually you know there is more times -- to get that but it doesn't.

Reflect -- well Paul -- authority.

And at least at this point to say -- to see that Tony can sit well thanks for the -- was to run -- Nice to hear from you -- the second and the man.

That's the problem for mr.

Aiken is that the check is not going to be -- -- -- you know everybody has withdrawn has distanced themselves from his comments.

He cannot talk his way out of this but.

Think issue sticks like velcro -- To the Republicans and -- -- and the Democrats are going to make that -- you already have Maureen Dowd in New York Times.

Calling the Republican Party that talent that when it comes to win -- That's a lie very very powerful.

Image -- women being taken at a time.

-- that.

Left of center position he wouldn't probably better than anyone has and that and -- -- on the right -- say this issue.

This issue.

Absolutely highlights the Republican commitment to the quote right to life and the protection of the unborn but this is not where most of the country isn't Republicans know this mr.

Romney.

Says that he even disagrees with the Republican Party plank.

It's going to be endorsement.

Next week and tell you a real challenge for their.

-- -- heads because it's a chance for the Democrats to make this a major issue is out.

Ask Eric Griffin 57 writes in the stance on abortion is a good indicator of -- on -- on other things and whether whether.

That makes you more inclined to vote for that person or going to vote against them that's probably true it gives you up a window into the into the social issues.

This is a President Obama already as we've discussed Jonathan has a huge lead among when NBI who has a huge lead among people of color and women.

And an issue like this just exacerbates that divide and I think there this is -- terribly difficult issue for the Republicans to handle all right.
