I am especially glad Tammy Duckworth is on the docket. She has another douche bag wing nut as an opponent, Joe Walsh.
Sandra Fluke. I wonder what she will talk about.
NARAL. Planned Parenthood.
They are going to fucking nail the war on women to the Republican's door. I am sure Akin, Ryan, and all the state legislature nonsense should figure prominently.
