Why should people who oppose abortion believe you are pro-life?

MR. BLITZER: You made, Governor Romney, this decision on abortion, opposing abortion, relatively recently.

Why should conservatives out there, people who oppose abortion believe you?

MR. ROMNEY: Well, people can look at my record. I’m not going to apologize for the fact that I became pro-life. I served as governor; as I was governor, as we were debating cloning and as we were debating also embryo farming, I said Roe v. Wade has gone too far. I want to make it very clear that I’m pro-life. People here in New Hampshire have seen that I’ve fought for life. I fought also for a traditional marriage, to keep taxes down, to have education in our schools that includes abstinence education. I’ve fought for English immersion in our schools. I know that I’ve got conservative credentials, and that’s one of the things that brings me to this race.

But there’s something bigger in conservatism that I don’t think we’ve spoken about, and that is that America is a land of opportunity, and our future is going to be far brighter than our past, not just as we overcome these challenges, but as we take advantage of the new opportunity of the 21st century.

MR. BLITZER: Thank you very much, Governor. (Applause.)
