If this election is clarified to be a referendum on women's right to choose,...

that should be welcomed by dems.

Choice has been solidly popular across party lines for decades, and if there was anything more needed to bring undecided women to the polls, this would do it.

Dems should emphasize that choice is on the ballot in this election, and welcome that fight.

Do you know a single person who cares deeply about choice who wasn’t already anxious for 11/3 to get here so they could vote him out?

I don’t.

But I know quite a few on the other side who couldn’t bring themselves to support this guy again... who might hold their noses one last time.
