Not talking Ted Kennedy

In all the healthcare yelling, it's interesting how short the "Obama is funding abortions" screams were. I'm sure it's still going on underneath the radar, but there was a time that abortion cries would have been one of the Republicans' main levers.

(If you think about it, there was relatively little abortion talk around Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor's confirmation.)

Has the political geography changed so much? Has the abortion issue lost its edge? Are there no more votes to be won by GOPers making the public argument against abortion anymore?
