NOW's strategy was . . . what, exactly?
NOW raises a really good point: what Obama should have done is pursued a strategy that could have failed simply for the symbolic importance of his vote, instead of having pursued a strategy that worked. Because, really, it's much, much more important to lose and be right. The women whose abortions could have been denied would definitely have appreciated that failing strategy!
Planned Parenthood cares about family planning options and the right to choose. The spokespeople for NOW care about . . . well, it's not really clear what they care about. Whatever it is, it doesn't appear to be success.
