		Dana herself claims that she is not the religious right, when in fact she is the dictionary definition of it....
		Dana can speak out as loudly as she wants against the legal status of abortion in various European countries, but from what we’re hearing, she’s saying nothing directly to the people who choose to get abortions for whatever personal reasons they have....

		The danger of lacking focus is always potentially terminal with a political career as unusual as Dana's, in that in trying to please everybody you end up annoying a lot of people too, such as her original backers in 1999.
		Her 'pseudo-naivete' style of five years ago worked then when people were prepared to give her the benefit of the doubt and see, but this time around, it was patently obvious that little had been achieved in the five years.
		If Dana does decide to run next autumn, a complete change of focus is needed if she is to convince the electorate that she really has an alternative vision to offer.
