Pennsylvania Gov. Robert P. Casey, author of"one of the most significant speeches in the last decade," dies
Peter Steinfels notes the passing of the prolife Democrat-and the significance of his undelivered speech-in The New York Times."At the 1992 Democratic National Convention, Governor Casey asked to present a minority report opposing the party's plank on abortion that declared 'reproductive choice' a 'fundamental right' deserving government financing. The party leadership barred Mr. Casey from addressing the delegates. The Casey obituaries mentioned the event, but they did not fully capture its significance. It was a watershed in the nation's political-moral discourse."
