Why Brownback might lose support from the RW "Right to Life" Crowd
He believes that the "Culture of Life" should be extended to the death penalty and thinks that it should be used only "sparingly".

And as we all know, when one talks of "Pro-Life" being more than just abortion, that things such as eradicating poverty and giving health care to all Americans could also be Pro-Life, the screaming "You are all baby killers" RW'ers start to get quiet and try to flee from the debate.

Sorry Brownback, but it looks like your Presidential aspirations won't last for very long.

1. Unlike Bush
I think Brownback is sincere in his religious beliefs. But, I agree that being against the death penalty will not play well with many Republics.
