This is going to ruffle some feathers.
NARAL President Nancy Keenan explains why the organization chose Obama out of the two strong pro-choice Democratic candidates.
UPDATE: The responses are already coming in. EMILY’s List president Ellen R. Malcolm says in a press release:
“I think it is tremendously disrespectful to Sen. Clinton – who held up the nomination of a FDA commissioner in order to force approval of Plan B and who spoke so eloquently during the Supreme Court nomination about the importance of protecting Roe vs. Wade – to not give her the courtesy to finish the final three weeks of the primary process. It certainly must be disconcerting for elected leaders who stand up for reproductive rights and expect the choice community will stand with them.”
What do you all think?
