One week before Iowa and just two till New Hampshire, and Rick Perry has just changed his views on abortion- to an even more conservative point of view.
He likes to call it, "a transformation."
Previously he was opposed to abortion, except in cases of incest, rape, or risking the life of the mother. He has now transformed his views and opposes abortion even in the case of rape, incest or when the woman's life would be at risk.
He says he changed his views after meeting a woman who was the product/child of a rape. Her story was shared in an abortion documentary screened by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Of course, it doesn't hurt that social conservatives are pretty powerful in Iowa, where Perry is in fourth place, but well within striking distance of beating Gingrich for third place. And it probably endears him just a little bit more to the Tim Tebow fans out there.
