'The War Room' for
March 8

It’s International Women’s Day, the perfect time to raise the question: why are the Republicans waging an assault on women’s reproductive rights?

From Washington, Celinda Lake of Lake Research Partners gave Jennifer Granholm her perspective on why the GOP is “obsessed” with women’s bodies. They were joined by opposing views from Tom Del Beccaro, chairman of the California Republican Party.

Former Wisconsin Senator and the author of “While America Sleeps” Russ Feingold also joined us inside “The War Room.” He discussed campaign finance and his perspective on how President Obama needs to position himself as the GOP inches closer to choosing their nominee.

Jennifer Granholm and Laura Tyson discussed the early part of President Obama’s first term, as well as the state of the US economy, jobs and manufacturing as we head into the heart of this year’s election cycle.

And our Brett Erlich told us about a mythical territory also known as “Newtopia.”
