A Woman's Right to Choose: Is the Battle Over?

With the election of a pro-choice president and the failure of anti-abortion measures in several states, the pro-life movement is down but not out. We hear about evolving tactics and a new focus on same-sex marriage. Also, big changes on Capitol Hill, and the latest leaks about the Obama cabinet.

With the election of a pro-choice president and the failure of anti-abortion measures in several states, the pro-life movement is down but not out. We hear about evolving tactics and a new focus on same-sex marriage. Also, big changes on Capitol Hill, and more names of Barack Obama's prospective cabinet members are being leaked. We talk about who they are, the likely source of the rumors and what they could mean for the next administration.
