Mjae: Marked difference
Marjorie: that's good...
Mjae: They're talking about "women's rights" now -- highlighting races where both men were antichoice
Mjae: Here's another question. What's up w/ the standardized Republican elephant, whereas every station has that damn ass doing something different?
Mjae: CNN has it rearing up
