Staying the Course.(abortion law)

This year's election is going to be the meanest, nastiest, toughest election we've ever seen. Our opponents want George Bush defeated. They will do anything necessary to make that happen.

Four years ago, Americans were presented with a clear choice. If Al Gore was elected, we'd continue down the path of death for millions of unborn children. If George Bush was elected, Americans would have a man in the White House who boldly declared that unborn children should be protected by law.

Pro-lifers knew that we had to change the course of this country. You worked your hearts out and elected George W. Bush.

For the 2000 election, our opponents spent an estimated $70 million. According to the Washington Post, this year more than 40 groups plan to spend $300 million to defeat President Bush.

Along with those mammoth financial efforts, don't be surprised when you see the media doing its part as well. The nonpartisan Center for Media and Public Affairs analyzed network evening newscasts in January and February. It found that the coverage of John Kerry was 79% positive. From April of last year through February 2004, coverage of President Bush was 68% negative.

So I'll caution you. When you're watching news reports, take them with a grain of salt. Some of what you hear may be just a little biased.
