Supporting McCain over Obama?

A lot of polls suggest that a significant amount of Clinton supporters will vote for McCain or not vote at all, because Obama won the nomination.

Just a thought; Clinton supporters are some of the most ardent feminists out there. They are severely disappointed because they feel like sexism caused Clinton's downfall (no comment on that theory). So, why on earth would these people want to support a McCain victory when he says this on his website:

"Overturning Roe v. Wade

John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench.

Constitutional balance would be restored by the reversal of Roe v. Wade, returning the abortion question to the individual states. The difficult issue of abortion should not be decided by judicial fiat.
...

 As John McCain has publicly noted, "At its core, abortion is a human tragedy. To effect meaningful change, we must engage the debate at a human level." "

Uhh...so yeah...good luck with that, my lovely feminist.
