5. They are in a position where they can't back down

They have been so adamant is their anti-abortion zeal that there is no wiggle room to say well maybe we allow it here or there.

In order to back track they would have to say that they only used abortion as an issue to convince poor religious people to vote against their own self interests.

That's not going to happen. Republican politics is about money. No one is going to be willing to give up the money.
