"I told her I was one of the few pro-choice people she'll meet"... Actually I think she will meet a lot of people who see it as you do. They won't be activists. They are not well represented by either party. But your position is common. Remember the days when a common position for Democratic politicians was 'personally opposed but do not think it should be illegal'? That sounds a lot like your position, and the politicians picked it because it is widely held. Activists hate it, not pure enough.

In your case you think it should be legal at any time, but you say it is healthier to seek a compromise. Your willingness to accept a compromise loses abortions activists of all stripes, but you haven't lost me! Compromise is where I go when I accept both sides make serious claims.
