.......The ad, which hits the air Tuesday, features a nurse practitioner named Meg who says she is outraged by Walker's decisions related to abortion and women's health.

"Scott Walker wants to make all abortions illegal, even in cases of rape or incest," she says. "Look, this is one of the toughest decisions a woman has to make. It's not up to politicians like Scott Walker. Scott Walker needs to get out of my patients' private lives, out of my examining room and just leave women alone."

Wisconsin governor's race turns to abortion

3 hours ago • By SCOTT BAUER


MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Scott Walker defended his anti-abortion views in a new television ad released at the same time Monday that a national abortion-rights group announced its own spot saying Walker needs to "just leave women alone."

The dueling ads demonstrate an intensifying effort to win over female voters in the tight governor's race, with just a month before the Nov. 4 election.

The Emily's List ad, its first of the campaign, features a woman identified as a nurse practitioner, wearing a white lab coat with a stethoscope around her neck. She cites Walker's signing of a law requiring that abortion doctors have admitting credentials at nearby hospitals and that women get an ultrasound before having an abortion. The ad also refers to Walker's opposition to abortion even in cases of rape and incest.

"Look, this is one of the toughest decisions a woman has to make," the woman identified only as Meg says. "It's not up to politicians like Scott Walker. Scott Walker needs to get out of my patients' private lives, out of my examining room, and just leave women alone."................

4. I wrote a letter to Ronald Reagan 30 yrs ago

and said the same thing. "Do your Presidential thing and leave women alone." Nothing has changed.

5. This is a very effective ad!

Clear, concise, and to the point. It's message and delivery should become a template for similar ads to be run in other states as well.

6. When Gov Walker gets pregnant, he should make that tough decision for himself. nt
