Due to firewalls, virus scans, corporate security restrictions, or just plain bad luck; there are times when MySQL just won't install on a specific Windows server. Here's a sure-fire install method. Relax, I won't have you run the msi installer again.
The first step is to remove directories from your previous install attempts. Uninstall from the control panel. Manually, rename or delete "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1″. Next, delete (or rename) the data directory. Warning! If you have previously entered data into MySQL, deleting the data directory will delete data. The directory is located at "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\data". You may need to unhide the data directory.
Let's get started.
#1. Download the no-install MySQL Version for Windows. Choose either "Windows (x86, 32-bit) ZIP Archive" or "Windows (x86, 64-bit) ZIP Archive" based on whether your system is 64 or 32-bit .
#2. Unzip the files to "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1″.
#3. Use notepad or wordpad to create a my.ini file and save the file in the MySQL directory, "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1″ Be careful that notepad doesn't add a default ".txt" extension to the my.ini file ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/253688 )
Add the following following to your my.ini file and save.
[mysqld] ##update basedir if you move the install location basedir="C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1" ##update datadir if you move the data directory datadir="C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1/data" ## increase to 40% of RAM if using MyISAM key_buffer_size=32MB ## increase to 80% of available RAM for production usage innodb_buffer_pool_size = 128MB ## may want to increase if write intensive innodb_log_file_size = 64MB innodb_log_buffer_size=8MB table_cache=1024 thread_cache=16 query_cache_size=32M
Note the basedir and the datadir variables. If you wish to install in a different location or put the data in a different location, update these values accordingly.
#3. Create and start the service. Open a command prompt, and enter the following:
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld" --install "MySQL 5.1" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini"
This installs the server. To start the service, type
net start "MySQL 5.1"
or start the service from the control panel.
You should be up and running. If not, check your err log in "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\Data"
#4. Connect from your client application and update your user accounts. By default, there are 3 accounts: root@localhost, email@example.com and an anonymous account.
The following commands log in with the mysql command-line client, remove the anonymous account and set the password for the root accounts.
At a command prompt, enter the following:
"c:\program files\mysql\mysql 5.1 server\bin\mysql" -uroot
This will log you into MySQL and you should have a mysql command prompt like mysql>
Here are the commands to delete your anonymous account and set passwords for your two root accounts. When setting the password, substitute your desired password for "mypassword".
mysql> DROP USER ""@localhost; mysql> Set PASSWORD FOR "root"@"localhost" = password("mypassword"); mysql> Set PASSWORD FOR "root"@"127.0.0.1" = password("mypassword"); mysql> flush privileges; mysql> exit
Feel free to post any questions/comments or issues to the comment section of this blog. For more comprehensive instructions see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/windows-install-archive.html

18 killed at Iraqi political site
Suicide bomber responsible
A suicide bomber detonated his vest inside an election campaign tent in central Baquba, Iraq, on Saturday, killing 18 and wounded 51, medical and police officials said.
A number of attacks have been recorded in recent weeks, as provincial elections approach across the country.
Still, the level of carnage has dropped considerably since the height of the sectarian violence in 2006 and 2007 that nearly tore Iraq apart.
The coming elections are slated for April 20 in 13 of Iraq's 18 provinces. Because of security concerns, elections in two provinces -- Anbar and Ninevah -- will be held in May.
Last month, more than 163 people were killed in violence across the country.

Classic Car News
Dukes of Hazzard car charges into auction
Image: Dennis Matheson, 2009
The Dodge Charger featured in 1980s TV hit Dukes of Hazzard is going on sale at an auction in California this week.
Of course there were many different copies of the Charger, nicknamed General Lee in the show, but only a single one of the estimated 256 remains on the market.
The vehicle was based on a 1969 edition and because it was officially used as a stunt car, it still bears the marks, dents and distortions which this job endowed upon it. Of course while this might be a problem for some classic cars, in this situation it actually adds character to the vehicle.
The Charger had been in the possession of a former stunt driver and was subsequently sold ten years ago to someone who did a little restoration work but, ultimately, decided that the damage accumulated during filming would not be repaired.
The auctioning of the vehicle alongside other classic cars at the Icons of Hollywood event is expected to net the current owner over $60,000. However, with the nostalgia and popularity associated with the show and the iconic car at its centre, heated bidding could push this even higher on the day.

Another great giveaway from my dear friends at Kit Naturals.
This time it is for their Coconut Dream Lotion, from their website …
The same dreamy consistency as our OS lotion but with the coco-nutty vibrancy of the Caribbean! You will feel an immediate euphoria as you apply this decadent lotion to your dry skin! This is an Island Get-a-way in a bottle so come, sail away with the KIT crew today!
I love anything from Kit Naturals, no joke, I have not tried anything from them I didn't love, and I am not a big beauty product person anymore, but their stuff is wonderful. I also love coconut oil, so put it in lotion and you know I will love it. My daughters enjoy spending time in the sun, and I enjoy spending time with them, but this born and bred California girl has seen more than enough sunshine in her days so a good but natural lotion is more than necessary for my skin. You will love it too. And you can win some!
I like this every bit as much as the Orange Cream, do you remember me talking about it?
In case you missed my review awhile back I will quote it for you here.
A few weeks ago I got the most wonderful gift in the mail from my dear friend Kathleen Gilmore. Something from her new home business Kit Naturals. It was some of her Orange Silk Cream, I agreed to try it out and give her my opinion. now Kathleen has known me for awhile so she knew I only tell the truth and never hype things up. However I do get excited about stuff that is really good. Well let me tell you, this stuff is good. In fact it is better than good. I can't decide if I like the smell or feel of it better. I truly wish I could create a "smell button" to let you smell this online. In the winter especially I tend to get really dry skin. Especially my hands. The first time I applied the cream I thought, hmm, nice but might be a little oily feeling, to be honest I probably used too much because it felt so good, but either way after about a minute it was all absorbed anyway. It felt really, really good and there was no left over oily feeling. And it has really helped where I had dry skin. I had to nearly arm wrestle it away from daughters, ha ha, but Momma always wins! Kathleen my dear you have done well! The only way she could possibly make this better is to sell it in gallon sized jugs! But since no one really ever needs to use that much I will just learn a little self control. I honestly can not say I have ever found a cream I like better. Since I used to own high end beauty salons in California that is my educated opinion. I pray that the Lord blesses Kit Naturals, and the Gilmore family abundantly! I might also add that their website is absolutely beautiful!Now in addition to my trying it out, I also get to give away a jar of cream!!! Yay!!!
This is how you can win. The comments must be added here to get you in for the drawing.
are you ready? really ready? yay!!! have a great week and join in my giveaways all week, all giveaways will be open until June 25th, by then my daughter will be married and on her honeymoon and maybe I can take a breath before round two
Kathleen has graciously allowed me to offer this open to everyone! Yep, where ever you live, if you win she will ship it to you, now folks tell me how often that happens?

Laura Simon is a multi media journalist for KTVO
KEOSAUQUA, IOWA -- The Pilot Fly-In is your one stop shop for toy planes and real planes and an all-you-can-eat pancake and sausage breakfast.
"We have the Ottumwa Radio control flyers here do an amazing job entertaining people with their aerobatic skills, and we have the Indian Hills Community College Aviation Department teaching people about careers in aviation," Stacey Reese, Executive Director of Tourism for the Villages of Van Buren, said.
For the past 13 years, both pilots and plane enthusiasts of all ages have been coming out to the Keosauqua Airport for the annual event.
"You've got farmers, doctors, lawyers, but you've got everybody who loves flying and people who would always want to be flying," Pilot Rick Michalek said.
Michalek has had his pilot's license for 35 years. He bought this 1946 Piper J3 Cub in the year 2000.
"This was the plane that was made available at that time and they produced about 10,000 of them," Michalek said. "There's about 5,000 flying now, and it's still very collectable."
Hannah Charbonneau's grandfather is also a pilot.
"I guess it's just fun because you get to have a free ride whenever you want," Charbonneau said.
While flying sometimes gives her butterflies in her stomach, she normally finds plane rides very relaxing.
"It feels good. You can just take your mind off of everything," she said.
Between learning about aviation and the delicious food, everyone seemed to have an enjoyable experience.
"I always enjoy the little remote controls besides the big planes, but the remotes—it's surprising what they can do," participant Mark Woodruff said. "Seeing everything." Evan Masterson, 11, said. "Just the feeling—there's the expression weightlessness, that's completely amazing," Brad Swanson, 12, said.
"It's a great way to bring the kids out, bring your lawn chairs, look at all the unique planes, learn a little bit about avation," Reese said.

A quick guide to the typical claims that may arise on a construction and engineering project
These include claims a contractor may make (such as loss and expense, extensions of time and for variations) and claims an employer may make (such as for defective work and liquidated damages). They apply to the jurisdictions of England and Wales.
Construction projects rarely run entirely smoothly: additional works may be requested by the employer or become necessary when things are "discovered" on site; delays may mean the building takes longer to complete; or it may cost more than the parties originally contracted for.
These are common claims:
A contractor may make a claim against the employer for more time and money (loss and expense) and for the cost of changes to the works (as variations or as a quantum meruit).
Common heads of loss and expense claimed include:
prolongation costs;
finance charges;
loss of profits;
general disruption; and
wasted management time.
not agreed a contract or not agreed all the terms, including the price for the work;
an agreement to pay a reasonable sum for the work done; or
agreed a scope of work under the original contract and the work falls outside that scope (and the parties did not have or did not use a variation procedure in the contract).
The employer may have a claim against the contractor because the works are of a poor quality or are defective, or because the project is delayed.
On construction projects, professional consultants often act as the contract administrator (valuing and certifying the works) as well as undertaking a design role. Generally, on building contracts, the professional consultant administering the contract is an architect; on engineering contracts, it is usually an engineer. Occasionally, the employer may appoint a project manager or quantity surveyor to administer a contract.
Professional consultants should perform their services in accordance with the implied or express duty of care in their professional appointment.
The professional consultant may be liable to the employer for:
An employer claims its losses caused by a breach of contract or the negligence of a professional consultant as general (unliquidated) damages.
Most engineering projects are procured on different forms of contracts to construction projects (such as FIDIC, NEC3, IChemE and IMechE, but many of the types of claims that could arise are the same.
Some key differences include:

A vaccine used to protect many schoolgirls from developing cervical cancer will change next year.
Gardasil will be used to prevent the youngsters from becoming infected with the human papilloma virus, the Department of Health has announced.
Professor David Salisbury, the director of immunisation, spoke to assure people already immunised with the previous vaccine that there will be no complications and they do not require the new medication as well.
"It will be tremendous to see rates of cervical cancer falling," he added.
Since 2008, the HPV vaccine has been administered to 1.5 million 12 to 13-year-old females, according to the government department.
Cancer Research UK states that HPV is the main cause of cervical cancer.

Infinite Visions, One Planetary Society
Share Your Vision with Us!
We want to know—and to share our Member's stories with the world as an advocate for space exploration on our Infinite Visions, One Planetary Society web forum.
Although your vision of space is unique, the Society is the one place we all come together to create a vibrant future for space exploration. You help strengthen our voice as the world's largest private space advocacy group, an international force in humankind's drive to explore and discover!
This week's question from Planetary Society Chairman Dan Geraci:
What do you value most about being part of The Planetary Society?
Submit Your VisionLike-minded people
by Dan Geraci
I'm a child of the space program—born in 1957, a few months ahead of the Sputnik launch. The Apollo program and my dream of becoming an astronaut defined my childhood.
In 1990, I stumbled across an ad for The Planetary Society and decided to join. The Planetary Report magazine gave me an insider's view of space from an incredible group of experts I had admired over the years, including Carl Sagan.
Today there is much more that I value about my Planetary Society Membership. It gives me a vital connection to something I have loved for so long.
Instead of pursuing my passion as an individual, Membership connects me to a global community of like-minded people.
I appreciate how the Society informs and educates in a straightforward way, with the right mix of technical depth for the true scientist, yet in a way the amateur enthusiast can fathom.
I admire the people committed to our cause: a Board of highly credentialed space experts, a dedicated staff and thousands of members worldwide who share the same passion.
I take pride in our impact, through projects that advance space science and through advocacy that affects the future of space exploration.
Twenty-three years ago, I became a Member of The Planetary Society out of love for all things space and a desire to have an inside track in the community. Today I remain a Member, and serve proudly as your Board Chairman, for those same reasons.
Here's how Planetary Society Members answered...

West African 2010-11 mid-crop harvests are winding down, and the output estimates are at record or near-record levels. Ghanaian production is now estimated at 1 million tonnes, far exceeding the previous record of 740,000 tonnes set in 2005-06. Ivorian port arrivals stand at 1.41 million tonnes, a record for this point of the season. Output in up-and-coming producer Cameroon shot up to 236,000 tonnes, beating the previous record of 210,000 set in 2008-09.
On August 26, to reflect these robust estimates, the International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) bumped up its estimate for the 2010-11 global surplus to 325,000 tonnes. That's up from its previous forecast for a surplus of 187,000 tonnes and a dramatic shift from the 125,000-tonne deficit recorded for the 2009-10 marketing year. With ending stocks at 1.93 million tonnes, the stocks-to-consumption ratio jumps to 50.4% of usage, up from 43.4% at the end of 2009-10. Not a terribly bullish scenario.
There have been two bullish developments over the past couple of months. Aging plantations and disease are a problem in most cocoa regions around the globe, but the effects have not been as severe anywhere as they've been in Indonesia. Output estimates for the current season have fallen to as low as 400,000 tonnes, compared with 530,000 tonnes in the previous season. It would seem that the forecast for such a large global surplus may not yet have accounted for the steep drop in Indonesian production.
Second-quarter cocoa grind statistics for non-origin countries were very strong. Europe was up 8.3% year-over-year, North American grind activity increased by 6.2%. Although these figures were above analysts' expectations, it is very likely that they were so strong only because European and North American processors were merely compensating for capacity lost temporarily during the standoff in the Ivory Coast. As such, it will be very interesting to see how third-quarter results – the period after the Ivory Coast got back on its feet – will turn out. That data will not be released until mid-October.
Studying fluctuations in butter/bean ratio values to determine whether grinding is profitable may have become somewhat archaic. Whatever significant growth there is in chocolate consumption is to be found in developing countries, which generally use a much higher ratio of powder to butter in manufacturing chocolate. There has been a powerful surge in powder prices over the past few years. Although butter prices have languished, powder prices have compensated. The combined price of butter and powder has gained steadily over the price of beans since mid-2010
The advent of the powder market has been supporting demand and helps to decipher – at least in part – the enigma of how cocoa prices remain steady at multi-decade highs.
It is, we believe, highly unlikely that crops in Ghana shot up by such a wide margin in such a short period of time, while at the same time, neighboring Ivory Coast was able to crank out a bumper crop despite the fact that the industry was virtually shuttered for months during the main-crop season.
A plausible explanation is that smuggled beans were double counted. Smuggled beans usually move from Ghana to the Ivory Coast to take advantage of higher prices, but went the opposite direction this year, as Ivorian farmers became frustrated by earning no income at all.
The Ivory Coast data are somewhat more believable because it has produced crops of similar size in the past and the arrival data published by the government matches – more or less – the parallel figures provided by exporters. Ghana has never produced anywhere near the amount of beans the official agency Cocbod is reporting and there is less transparency as we don't see the weekly numbers provided by exporters to the government. Aside from musings in press reports, there is no evidence to corroborate this theory. Time will tell.
As a result of our skepticism, we question forecasts that call for such a healthy surplus. As well, it's hard not be impressed with the action of a market that has been generating nothing but apparent bearish news.
We're a bit offside on our June 29 recommendation to establish long positions. Place stops at $2,800, basis nearest contract, close only.

The past week has been a good one for me. What started out with the sudden and unexpected news of my unemployment has given me the opportunity to touch base with many friends and business acquaintances. Too often I throw so much of myself into my current project that I neglect to maintain those tertiary relationships. I'm excited to explore new opportunities to help build value in businesses in the gaming and gambling sector. Feel free to email me at email@example.com if that proposition interests you.
For today's blog, I want to discuss elements of another call I wasn't expecting this week. This one came from my last manager from my international art gallery that closed in 2006. He had a client interested in a certain artist and he wondered if I still had any of their sculptures. I have held onto quite a few sculptures over the years that I felt had value and an impressive aesthetic. Luckily, I had just the right outdoor piece for this client. But how to determine its current value?
One of the major life skills I developed from my travels in Africa and running the gallery was the art of negotiation. Unlike most commerce in America, in Africa there are often no set prices. It is part of the culture to haggle. Negotiation and communication are part of your transaction. I have even had vendors refuse my initial higher than expected price because it cut short the transactional experience. They understood at a very base level that if people negotiated, they invested themselves in the process and were more likely to return as a satisfied customer
Zimbabwean artists are very shrewd negotiators. This was observed hundreds of times in interactions with artists who adjusted the selling price of their sculpture depending on who the buyer was. They would evaluate the buyer and determine what they felt they could get out of them. The most noticeable difference being the price offered to a local vs. a foreigner. My partner in the early years of the gallery was a local, but he now lived in the United States. Even though he spoke their language, they were able to notice that he wore clothes or sneakers that weren't available there so they ultimately offered him a middle ground price that wasn't offered to me.
Back in the gallery, American art buyers were all too eager to replicate that experience of negotiating the final price of a sculpture. They were looking for the best deal they could get. Even if you had a sale going on, they wanted more. Although it was a constantly shifting playing field, there were some key lessons I learned from the art of successful negotiation.
1. Everyone wants to come out on top. Negotiating brings out the competitive juices in everyone.
2. Show respect and understanding for where they are coming from. Everyone feels their position is genuine and compelling.
3. Remove your ego, as much as you can, so you can focus on creating a win-win for both parties.
4. Approach your negotiation as if this will only be one of many future negotiations. By making it a positive experience for both parties, it will encourage future business. Drive too hard of a bargain in your favor and risk alienating them forever.
5. Many believe negotiating is all about bluffing and bravado, but showing some vulnerability and honesty can often speed the transaction and satisfaction afterwards.
6. There are times where one party clearly has the advantage and upper hand, but accept that sometimes you need a deal to go through and that next time the dynamic might switch. I can recall numerous times when big bills were due that I sold a sculpture for much less than normal in order to get access to the funds immediately.
7. Elicit their limits, and determine yours. Determining the reasonable range for negotiation cuts out a lot of needless time. Understand that sometimes walking away from a negotiation, despite wanting it completed, is the best option.
8. A successful negotiation increases the respect that exists between both parties.
Focus on the results and not the people. Don't make it personal, it is only a transaction.
The negotiation has begun. I'll let you know how it turns out.

PAIN INTENSIFIER?: Although a general anesthetic may keep you from feeling anything while surgeons are cutting you open, they may increase postoperative pain.

Researchers studying the effects of general anesthesia recently made a startling discovery: the drugs used to knock out patients during surgery may lead to increased pain when they wake up.
Doctors have known for decades that most general anesthetics may cause a temporary burning sensation when administered or swelling around the injection site. Similarly, inhaled agents can cause momentary coughing bouts, according to Gerard Ahern, a pharmacologist at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C.
Now Ahern has discovered that some drugs used to put patients to sleep may also increase postoperative pain from the procedure itself by boosting the activity of a protein called TRPA1 on the surface of pain-sensing nerve cells.
Ahern and his colleagues write in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA that anesthesiologists may be able to limit post-op pain by sticking to meds that do not have this effect. "By understanding the mechanisms for these noxious effects," says Hugh Hemmings, a professor of anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City, "it gives you a way to screen for new drugs that don't have these effects, but do produce anesthesia."
Ahern says the study may shed light on why some patients complain of more pain than others who have the same surgical procedure, although the researchers did not identify a particular ingredient in anesthesia that may cause the effect.
In attempting to pinpoint pain sources, Ahern and his team examined the effect of various anesthetics on TRPA1 and TRPV1, two proteins known to sense pain and respond to chemical irritants. Cells containing TRPA1 were activated by the drugs, but TRPV1 cells appeared to be unaffected. Research confirmed their findings on lab mice engineered not to produce TRPA1. When anesthesia was administered to them, they did not twitch their legs or frantically rub their noses against the walls and floors of their cages as they normally do.
That meant the researchers knew that the anesthetic was causing irritation while it was being administered. "We've shown that a direct irritation [from the anesthetic] is caused by TRPA1," says Ahern. "This is a provocative finding in terms of the clinical setting, because it was not really recognized that use of these drugs result in [the] release of lots of chemicals that recruit immune cells to the nerves, which causes more pain and inflammation."
The next step was to determine if more noxious drugs were likely to increase the pain following surgery. To do that, the team anesthetized one group of mice with an agent called isoflurane (the most widely used gaseous general anesthetic), and another group of animals with a drug called sevoflurane (which generally elicits a much milder reaction when it is administered). The researchers then swabbed the ears of the mice with another known irritant—to simulate tissue damage from surgery. They found that the ears on the mice injected with isoflurane swelled more dramatically, and the swelling persisted for much longer.
"During surgery a surgeon is cutting in with a scalpel and it's causing a lot of tissue damage," says Ahern. "[This result] suggests that during surgery you might get more activation of the TRPA1 if you use a pungent anesthetic" such as isoflurane, which will cause increased and longer-lasting pain at the surgery site. Avoiding such drugs or developing ones that ignore this protein, he notes, should lead to greater patient comfort.

Welcome back to -- on the foxnews.com.
Live our question of the day today that we want -- to weigh -- -- -- is -- -- candidates stance on abortion play a role in how we you vote results that I as I look at them right now 54%.
Or so saying no other issues -- more important but I healthy 42% saying yes -- -- a fundamental role.
So it you -- got a lot of comments from you guys on this as well.
It's overseer of an issue that is being brought to the forefront.
By the representative told -- came down in Missouri and his.
Shocking to most people comments on the rape and abortion.
So how does the media covered this Judy Miller -- you can tweet act JM free -- is here even -- screen just went.
Dog he is yeah I thought that -- fact I'm talking about half brother anybody especially I didn't.
Anything the media is covered this story well it's all -- and all the time -- no matter what the political tilt.
All of the publication are the broadcast it's hard to turn on your television without seeing mr.
Aiken and yet another effort to kind of hang on.
To receive -- at this point ten nomination race that not only wants him to Iran and especially the Republican Party it's and Mike can't.
One of our viewers who wrote in just a little while ago saying look you know we're talking about eight can make in -- -- other scandals.
-- there involving Democrats -- -- but I guess the point of this one.
Is that it does go to a policy position it's not just a personal scandal this is a guy who has made to most people's minds outrageous comments about a a policy issue that affects more than half -- -- Absolutely and this using gift tourists to Barack Obama running every -- agrees on that.
Because if you want to.
-- -- -- because everybody's talking about abortion pro life.
Amendments whether you're for them -- against -- this is not where the Republican Party wanted to be which is why the press reported today.
That the vice presidents to me -- me he mr.
Ryan called his good friend right and urged him begged him to withdraw from the race which so far has had no affect -- And that's an intro at present talking to we would -- Cameron was mentioning that earlier saying well it's not actually you know there is more times -- to get that but it doesn't.
Reflect -- well Paul -- authority.
And at least at this point to say -- to see that Tony can sit well thanks for the -- was to run -- Nice to hear from you -- the second and the man.
That's the problem for mr.
Aiken is that the check is not going to be -- -- -- you know everybody has withdrawn has distanced themselves from his comments.
He cannot talk his way out of this but.
Think issue sticks like velcro -- To the Republicans and -- -- and the Democrats are going to make that -- you already have Maureen Dowd in New York Times.
Calling the Republican Party that talent that when it comes to win -- That's a lie very very powerful.
Image -- women being taken at a time.
-- -- -- a powerful voice like solo turn amber and people do both she's a powerful voice yes she is a very powerful voice and she articulates.
-- that.
Left of center position he wouldn't probably better than anyone has and that and -- -- on the right -- say this issue.
This issue.
Absolutely highlights the Republican commitment to the quote right to life and the protection of the unborn but this is not where most of the country isn't Republicans know this mr.
Says that he even disagrees with the Republican Party plank.
It's going to be endorsement.
Next week and tell you a real challenge for their.
-- -- heads because it's a chance for the Democrats to make this a major issue is out.
Ask Eric Griffin 57 writes in the stance on abortion is a good indicator of -- on -- on other things and whether whether.
That makes you more inclined to vote for that person or going to vote against them that's probably true it gives you up a window into the into the social issues.
This is a President Obama already as we've discussed Jonathan has a huge lead among when NBI who has a huge lead among people of color and women.
And an issue like this just exacerbates that divide and I think there this is -- terribly difficult issue for the Republicans to handle all right.
Judy Miller at JM free speech if you'd like to -- -- without daily -- -- -- I'm Judy and others -- only sort of matters on FOX News Watch.
Hosted by -- Scott every Saturday to thirteen and 11:30 PM eastern good to see you as always.
