Palin against legal abortion even for victims of rape or incest

While this has previously been reported in the press, you can actually see Palin stating her position on abortion for rape victims in this 2006 gubernatorial debate. The question is first posed to Palin about 13 minutes into the debate. She says she would support a constitutional amendment. Two minutes later, she is asked if her daughter were raped, would she support an abortion in that case. In both cases, she says she is absolutely against abortion. The only exception she is willing to make is when the life of the mother is at risk.

Twenty-six minutes into the debate, she says she would be against embryonic stem cell research.

In this debate, Palin also says she is against domestic partnership benefits for gays and lesbians.
