Julie Rovner from NPR news had an interesting piece on what Governor Mitt Romney's take on birth control was following the debate on October 16th. According to President Obama, Romney wants to get rids of the planned parenthood program. She goes on to say that Obama's claim, that Romney wants to get rid of the program is false and misinterpreted. Romney fires back saying, "the presidents statement of my policy is completely and totally wrong."
In Julie's article she states that Obama's plan for the past few months has been to win the female vote by making Romney seem like he doesn't care about women. "He has been using the birth control issues and abortion issues to sway female votes," says Julie. Obama has actually been succeeding according to this recent poll from swing states. As a counter in her argument she goes to a different source that says Romney is in fact in favor of the abortion issue and thinks its alright only during certain situations, such as rape or incest. So the truth is Romney doesn't hate females as his opponent President Obama would like people to think.
