The point is, most Americans believe that abortions should be illegal some of the time. Most Democrats support the legality of all abortions, even for development beyond viability. The real important point to watch, IMHO, is whether someone states late term abortions should be acceptable if required for the health of the mother or the life of the mother. The latter is supported by most. With the former, one can always find a mental health professional who will state that continued pregnancy will have an adverse effect on the health of the mother....so it's functionally on-demand.
