Crowd is decent for that.  Very diverse and multi generational as well.

There's interest here in having HRC hit Jeb tonight for saying that he's
“not sure we need half a billion dollars for women’s health issues.”  I've
sketched out a possible riff below and updated tonights TPs (attached).
She goes on soon, so would love reactions ASAP.
Thanks

·      *Just today, we got another window into what the Republican
candidates really believe.  Jeb Bush said he’s “not sure we need half a
billion dollars for women’s health issues.”  He’s got no problem giving
away billions to the super-wealthy and powerful corporations, but I guess
women’s health just isn’t very important. *

·      *Governor Bush, try telling that to the mom who caught her breast
cancer early because she was able to get a screening.  Was her health not
worth the money?  Tell it to the teenager who avoided an unwanted pregnancy
because she had access to contraception.  Tell it to everyone who was
protected by an HIV test.*

·      *Governor Bush, you say you’re learning to show America “your
heart.”  Well today you showed America’s women your contempt. *

·      *Now, of course, he’s scrambling to clean up the mess.  The Bush
campaign claims what he meant to say was that we should just defund Planned
Parenthood.  Maybe someone should clue Jeb in to what Planned Parenthood
actually does – it provides vital health care to millions of American
women. *

·      *I’ve been fighting for women and families my entire adult life, and
I’m tired of the double speak.  I’m tired of women being shamed and blamed
and dismissed.  This isn’t complicated: When you attack Planned Parenthood,
you attack women’s health.  And when you attack women’s health, you attack
America’s health.  *
