Michelle Obama and Jill Biden go after Cindy McCain on abortion...

[cynatnite]

In a disagreement among candidates' wives, Michelle Obama and Jill Biden took issue with a recent statement by Cindy McCain that abortion is not a "major issue" in the presidential campaign.

Michelle Obama and Jill Biden discuss abortion rights and working women.Responding to a comment made by John McCain's wife, Cindy, earlier this week, Jill Biden said that preserving a woman's right to abortion should not be dismissed as unimportant in this election.

Cindy McCain avoided directly answering a question about the Supreme Court repealing Roe v. Wade in an interview with "Good Morning America" Wednesday. "There are people without jobs, that are hurting, whose businesses who have collapsed. This is not the major issue on people's minds right now," she said.

After hearing McCain's response, Jill Biden looked at Michelle Obama and arched her eyebrows.

"I think it's very important personally," Biden told ABC News' Claire Shipman. "But I am of that generation of women who fought for Roe v. Wade and I can't imagine the Supreme Court overturning it. I think women have to remember that."

3. For someone who could simply hop in her jet and fly away anywhere she wanted,

it's probably true that people like her don't care whether the little people back home are prohibited from making medical decisions for themselves. That's elitist (at BEST).
