Reply #16: So they admit there was a strategy! [View All]

Which confirms exactly what to two MOST affected groups have said. NARAL and PP both have said that there was a strategy to get ALL democrats (and a few republicans) to vote "present" on the bills. Obama agreed to the plan as presented by NARAL and PP.

And Illinois NOW did not support it.

Well, if I was Obama, I would go with NARAL and PP.

NOW's "strategy" was every person for themselves... and if you were a Dem or a pro-choice Repuke in the senate, and you and only you were voting "present" because you wanted to be re-elected to make sure crap like those bills DIDN'T pass in the next session, I bet you were pretty happy that a large block of Dems were voting "present" right along side you.

Do you want results or do you want "principle"?
