Prohibit late-term partial birth abortions

Require pre-abortion counseling to inform the patient of all available options.

All of this things stop well short of the conservative position on abortion, but are more restrictive than the position held by Clinton and others in her party. I think you can consider that to be somewhere in the "moderate" zone.

Abortion is kind of like the death-penalty - nobody on either side of the issue will acknowledge that a moderate position is actually a moderate position. They will attack it as surrendering to the other side on cherished principles.
