39. it's an MSNBC video interview of Hillary

I'm certain it can be found elsewhere.

I only watched the video there, I didn't read the story because it is, as you say, RCP... and yes, the subject is late term abortions, not all abortions... but it's clear that Hillary is open to BANNING abortions with her stated exceptions.

I am of the opinion that this should always be a decision between a woman and her doctor. It is my belief that nearly all women would NOT choose to have a late term abortion as a means of birth control, especially if we, as a society, made abortion and contraception safe, acceptable, accessible, and affordable.
