I can't speak for the future, but I can tell you that podunk Pennsylvanians were far more concerned with Muslim terrorists storming the local diner and BINGO hall for most of my adult life than one would think logical. I guess I'm sort of used to it around here, though. I come from a town that had a bunch of factories at one point, but unions became less important than guns and welfare queens. So it goes.
Anyways, never underestimate the power of unlikely but "could be super impactful given the 0.0001% chance it happens" stuff has on people. Now, where did I put all those lottery tickets?

Abortion as a single issue might not swing things significantly, but gay marriage and contraceptives on the chopping block would be different. I can't think of a ton of people I know, right or left, that have been outspokenly against birth control. It's a pretty ingrained part of our sexual culture. I highly doubt that trying to ban it, even in the reddest of red states would be popular with any majority.
Might as well go after porn and R-rated movies while they're at it.
Do dudes ever complain about birth control? I mean, isn't that like screaming that you never get laid?
