5 thoughts on “Abdul-Hakim Shabazz: Republicans are struggling to figure out what to do

  1. This is a pretty weak article. Obviously these are some of the issues but not even close to all of them. Also we have no idea how he feels on these issues. The headline reads as if the Republicans have no clue. Entirely misleading but what would you expect from an IBJ oped

    1. I don’t agree with Abdul but it appears he was right:

      “Recent Indiana abortion surveys are few and far in between — with big changes in support and opposition based on wording and level of detail — so Indiana Republicans commissioned their own poll, as they draw up abortion-restricting proposals for a special session this month.

      The House and Senate GOP campaign committees conducted a poll on abortion shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court handed down the Dobbs v. Jackson decision on June 24. The polling firm is reliably Republican, but the results were shocking to some conservative members of the caucuses.

      Multiple GOP insiders spoke to the Indiana Capital Chronicle anonymously because the poll is being heavily guarded. Requests about the survey to House Speaker Todd Huston as well as both the House Republican Campaign Committee and Senate Majority Campaign Committee were ignored.

      What is clear, according to the insiders, is that Hoosiers don’t want a near-virtual ban on abortion. Instead, they support exceptions for rape, incest and the life of the mother. And many are supportive of allowing abortion up to 15 weeks of gestation.”

  2. Like most from the “media”, the author betrays his leftist bias. When you take in news from 95% of the popular local and national news outlets, whether from reporters or editors, they all lean left and would have the readers believe conservatives are a small, dwindling group becoming less relevant each day. They not only hammer conservatives, but moderates as well, as they often express views different from the far left. The problem for the left is that their extreme views that distort reality become exposed for what they truly are when people vote. It sometimes takes a little time, but eventually, the “majority” of voters elect leadership that enacts sound policies that build society up rather than tear it down. These voters want leaders that address matters important to the majority, rather than spending ridiculous sums of time and money on fringe issues such as who can use what bathroom. What is needed is “media reform”. Most readers of news are tired of pundits reporting news, followed by explaining ad nauseam “what it means” and how those taking the news in should respond. Quit manipulating with the constant propaganda. The public is smart enough to know what they think about what happens without being told how to think.

  3. Why the negativity in the comments? All Shabazz was doing was sharing some inside intel on what Republicans are considering now that Roe is overturned. I found it useful especially because Republicans have been doing back room conversations which neither the Dems or public have been privy to.
