The NARAL Endorsement and an Obama-Clinton Ticket

avatar

I have been virulently against an Obama-Clinton ticket for a while now for a few reasons.  First and foremost, I think it undercuts his message of change.  Adding the wife of a former president (and by default, the former president himself) to Obama's ticket doesn't seem all that revolutionary in terms of revising

How would you like to see McCain for a change?

Is that why you want to see an incompatible VP?
Why do you want the VP's profile to supersede the actual candidate's?

Can someone explain why people are making such a big deal of the NARAl endorsement? I know they're a pro-choice group but I'm not sure I understand why some Clinton supporters are upset that they endorsed Obama. (I genuinely want to know because it doesn't seem like such a big deal to me.)

They're a pro-choice group based upon a feminist base, which essentially means that feminists are now telling Clinton to drop out (probably because she makes them look bad).

Gotcha. Thanks.
