lobbyist and special_interest and the folk who write the __MONEY___million check to try to win thi race and the on who ar try to make it harder for peopl to vote __PUNCT__ the politician in washington who somehow think that thei got a better idea than women about women_health health_care choic __PUNCT__ those ar the folk that ar go to be make_decis if you ar not make those decis __PUNCT__
