PRINCETON, NJ -- A new Gallup Poll, conducted May 7-10, finds 51% of Americans calling themselves "pro-life" on the issue of abortion and 42% "pro-choice." This is the first time a majority of U.S. adults have identified themselves as pro-life since Gallup began asking this question in 1995.

Would have expected it to lean heavily in favor of pro-choice.

#1) Pro-choicers are aborting their supporters out of existence.
#2) Most of the pro-choicers aren't really hardcore abortion believers anyway. They're more of the 'keep my hands off my body' crowd.

This has never been a 50-50 issue.
