In an interview with WORLD magazine, Land predicted “the fussing will stop once the pro-life Thompson enters the race.”

So see, Land considers Thompson pro-life. The question remains how will Land deal with Thompson’s past statements and more importantly how will Thompson himself deal with those statements. He’ll have to confront the issue once he officially becomes a candidate….

Land has already stated that he will not support pro-choice Rudy under any circumstances, even in a Rudy v. Hillary contest.

Land views the anti-abortion movement as the successor to the abolitionists. It’s a deal-breaking issue for him. Or so he’s said. We’ll see if he keeps his word.
