Former Maryland GovLarryHogan eschews the pro-life label, writes TPCarney.
Abortion was legal and subsidized in Maryland when Hogan first ran for governor, and he promised, “Nothing will change on abortion with me as governor.” Hogan tried to keep that promise: He never took steps to protect the unborn of Maryland, and he vetoed legislation to expand abortion.
“I’ve never really been put in a box like that,” Hogan replied. “I don’t know what those labels really mean. ... It’s not a black-and-white issue. It’s a very gray issue.”“I’m personally opposed to abortion,” he began. “I am for the states’ rights and ability to have reasonable restrictions on abortion.” Hogan also said he’s always been for exceptions to any abortion ban, but also for requiring parental notification for minors’ abortions.
His answers lacked detail, and he clearly didn’t like talking about abortion on his way out of office any more than he did while running in Maryland.
