Wow. Of course, that's not exactly what she meant. So sad. Here's the story...

Washington Times - SC Dem chief says sorry for Palin-abortion comment

Here's her excuse....



Fowler has issued a statement, saying, "I personally admire and respect the difficult choices that women make everyday, and I apologize to anyone who finds my comment offensive. I clumsily was making a point about people in South Carolina who may vote based on a single issue. Whether it’s the environment, the economy, the war or a woman’s right to choose, there are people who will cast their vote based on a single issue. That was the only point I was attempting to make."
And that is completely their perogative. Similarly, just like people who choose to vote for Obama, based solely on the war in Iraq.
