The Third Rail. Obama Goes There.

If you watched Obama's acceptance speech, as I did, you might also have noticed he barely approached the right to choose. I was disappointed because I remain convinced that many women considering voting for McCain don't know how anti-abortion he is.
Apparently Obama has decided to tell them.
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Barack Obama has launched a broadside against John McCain’s opposition to abortion rights and moved one of the most divisive issues in modern American politics to the airwaves on a large scale for the first time in this presidential campaign.

Obama’s new radio ad, airing widely in at least seven swing states, tells voters McCain “will make abortion illegal.” It’s airing as McCain courts female voters with the addition of the staunchly anti-abortion governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, to his ticket.
