The consensus among media types this morning appears to be that Joe Biden
trounced Paul Ryan on the abortion question in last night’s debate. In
reality, it was the exact opposite.
I have seldom heard a politician give a more moving, convicting, personal,
emotional, and truthful answer on the sanctity of human life than did Ryan

moderates on the abortion issue. He threaded the needle beautiful, taking an
