U.S. Approves Abortion Pill After 12-Year Battle. I’m wondering if part of the FDA’s timing involves an Administration attempt to assist the Gore campaign by highlighting Dubya’s predictable disagreement with the decision (indeed, he did speak out against it). This ought to give Gore the edge in the women’s vote. The abortion issue has been on the back burner in this campaign until now. Thsi wouldn’t be the first thing the Clinton Administration has done to help it’s own; keeping home heating oil prices down this winter by releasing some of the strategic oil reserves is another obvious example.

Sorry to be so inarticulate, but all I can say is that I wish they would finally just give it a rest. AP
