Transcript for November 13 - Meet the Press.

Anne Northup in Kentucky said it wouldn't be a--she hasn't decided right now, but wants to find out whether it would be a good idea. Friday in Pennsylvania, Rick Santorum stayed in another part of the state when the president went up to Wilkes-Barre.
And look at these numbers. This is what the voters say. Preference for 2006 congressional candidates, Republican-controlled Congress, 37; Democrats, 48.
Our congressional Republicans, "Do they have the same priorities as you for the country?" Same priorities, yes, 24; no, 58.
"In which issues do you prefer the Democrats over the Republicans?" Environment, gas prices, health care, Social Security, education, reducing deficits, energy policy, economy, government spending, taxes, trade issues, foreign policy, abortion, immigration, ethics in government, and Iraq--16 of the 19 issues we presented to the people, they chose the Democrats.
Are the Murkan sheeple coming out of their terra torpor? Everyone please take note of the 13th thing on that list: abortion. Regardless of the shrill posturing of the so-called pro-lifers, the US is majority pro-choice (for lack of a better term). Let's keep it that way. Act now!
