Finally!!! Women SPEAK!! Live Blog and it’s women issues now!

Candy Crowley is making sure that women get to ask questions!    Romney’s best answer is that women want to be home to make dinner!   There are questions about contraception and pay equity!

It looks like Sully’s back in love!

9.44 pm. It’s fascinating how contraception is now an issue in this campaign and Obama is owning his Obamacare position; and he is doubling down on Planned Parenthood. This is going to hel win him back women’s votes. He’s on tonight. Nice touch on his daughters. And obviously sincere.

9.42 pm. Romney’s response on women’s pay is strongest when he mentions his old cabinet in Massachusetts. But his segueway to the economy seemed a little desperate.

9.38 pm. Obama has owned the first half hour. This campaign is turning again. Now we get a very Obama-friendly question about women’s pay. And a great answer on women’s pay. Hard to beat that answer.
