“…(A)ccording to a CBS/New York Times poll cited in the article, 49% of 18-29 year old women believed that abortion should be “available to anyone who wants it” in 1993. In 2003 among the same age group, only 35% of respondents believed abortion should be “available to anyone who wants it.” In 2005, only 28% of respondents favored making abortion “available to anyone who wants it.”

Furthermore, in 1993, 30% of female respondents in the 18-29 year old age group believed that abortion should be “available, but with stricter limits.” By 2005, the number had risen to 40%.

Most encouraging of all, only 19% of respondents in 1993 believed that abortion should be “not permitted.” By 2005, the number had risen to 30%.” — RedState
