Ladies and gentlemen: if you feel the urge to bash in a baby's skull and suck its brains out, you will have to do it in another country. Alternately, you can use less obviously barbaric methods of dismemberment.
Current presidential hopefuls who have spoken or voted in favor of using partial-birth abortion include Hillary Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, Barack Obama, Bill Richardson, Dennis Kucinich and Chris Dodd.
Candidates who have spoken or voted against the ban include Tommy Thompson, Sam Brownback, John McCain, Joe Biden, Chuck Hagel, Ron Paul, Duncan Hunter, Tom Tancredo, Fred Thompson, and Rudy Giuliani, who has all his bases covered.
John Edwards did not vote on the ban in its final form, and has not maintained a uniform position on the issue, though he did say in his campaigns that he opposed the procedure. I could find nothing on Mitt Romney specifically on partial-birth abortion, though he has famously flip-flopped on abortion rights generally.

Edwards has clarified his position: "I could not disagree more strongly" with the Court, according to his website.
