"I've seen numbers as high as 70 percent--maybe even more--in the African-American community, and I think that's just appalling." So said Republican congressman, and Colorado gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez about abortion rates in a broadcast interview on Monday. He later apologized.
Shades of Ronald Reagan's welfare queens. Apparently, Republicans still can't resist playing the race card.
(A poll released August 17th showed Beauprez 10 points down on Bill Ritter, his Democratic opponent.)
