Pro-lifers against Crist for VP

From LifeNews.com: "Leading pro-life advocates say one of the top considerations for John McCain for a vice-presidential running mate should be left off of his short list. They're concerned Florida Gov. Charlie Crist isn't sufficiently pro-life and not motivate the base of the Republican Party in the way McCain needs to win....Kelly Shackelford, the president of the Liberty Legal Institute pro-life law firm told CBN that a Crist selection "would certainly put the last nail in the coffin for social and Christian conservatives" but Shackelford says he doesn't think McCain will select Crist."
