Using abortion to kill healthcare reform

I appreciate it when adversaries are blunt. The right has decided to go all-in on the anti-abortion amendment to the healthcare bill:

"The Democrats will never go for it. But above all else, we must remember the strategy must be to kill the bill, not improve it."

Pushing the anti-abortion amendment is to create a "poison pill" - something that would cause enough Democrats to vote against it that the overall bill would die.

In pure politics it's pretty good. Sadly, I think my fellow Democrats will fall into the trap that's been laid for them.
