He needs to hold townhalls with all women. He needs to hit McCain hard on his opposition to the Equal Pay Act, women's health issues, and choice. He needs to hit him hard day after day. This is nothing but a winning issue for him. I hope he takes about a week after this convention to do that and send Biden somewhere to talk about the Economy.

4. I know that he has been talking about it, but it needs to be like a theme like what he did for the
economy, etc. Remember his Iraq and Economy speeches? He needs a Lilly Ledbetter speech, where all cameras are there and it's broadcast live on cable. In the speech, he begin to heal some of the divisions among the Hillary folks.

5. His unfortunate comments on late-term abortion didn't help him. nt

3. Yes, he should. He should smear McCain's very own voting
record on women's issues in his face. If he can get the women out to vote, the election is ours.
