Related: About this forumPlanned Parenthood to endorse Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire on Sunday
ManchesterPlanned Parenthood for America is expected to endorse Hillary Clinton on Sunday in Manchester, two sources with knowledge of the endorsement tell CBS News.
The women's health group has never endorsed a candidate in a presidential primary - until now.
The endorsement is not unexpected: the Democratic front runner's ties with Planned Parenthood are long standing, and she counts President Cecile Richards as a friend.
"There has never been a presidential candidate with as strong a commitment to women's health and rights as @HillaryClinton. #Historic," Richards tweeted when Clinton announced her candidacy last April.

very deceptive, but i'm sure you meant for it to come off that way.

I did do a direct copy and paste so nothing would side track it.

Why should supporters of PP be forced to feel uncomfortable about them favoring a candidate in the primsry.
It'd be acceptable if Bernie or Martin O were anti-choice. But they are both pro choice and would be just as supportive.
Snacks of insider cronyism to me.

(2,570 posts)14. it sure does
like what would they have done had they had a leader not so "close" to HC.
And why her? Was her husband or BHO their enemy or something?
It also smells a bit like desperation as well...
