Before beginning her tenure as president of NARAL Pro-Choice America in 2004, Nancy Keenan served as a Montana state legislator and State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Nancy applied her experiences as a candidate in overseeing NARAL Pro-Choice America's political program in the 2006 midterm elections, which helped fuel the gain of 23 pro-choice seats in the U.S. House and three in the U.S. Senate.

Nancy's commitment to public service was shaped early in life as one of five children born into an Irish-Catholic family in Anaconda, Montana, a small copper smelter town in the western part of this "red" state. Nancy earned a bachelor's degree in elementary education from Montana State University and a master's degree in education administration from the University of Montana. Before seeking elected office, Nancy taught children with disabilities in her hometown.

Nancy is a leading commentator on reproductive health issues. Her list of appearances includes NBC Nightly News, The Today Show, The Brit Hume Report on FOX, CNN and NPR. Washingtonian Magazine named her one of the top 100 most powerful women in Washington, DC, and the Detroit News has described her as both "forthright and politically savvy." She is routinely quoted in The New York Times, Washington Post, Newsweek, and other major national and regional publications.

Ann Coulter said that Hillary is more conservative than McCain. How bad can he really be?

Are going to work with theObama campaign?How can we help?

Are you completely in favor of all pro-active birth control? Are barrier methods ok with you? What is your view of making morning-after pills available on weekends.

Did you expect the backlash you received? Do you care that this may have had the opposite effect than your stated goal to begin unifying the party?

Do you really think Obama can beat McCain? I am still backing Hilary and am disappointed in your decision.

Even though McCain is bad, shouldn't we be happy that we're not fighting against Huckabee?

Hi Elizabeth! It looks like we're almost out of time. It's a shame we couldn't get to all of the questions.

How can you endorse someone who has zero chance of winning the general election? And you ask for money to help defeat McCain - your endorsement has done more damage to that cause, than any money can help!
