Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- A New York Times columnist says Hillary Clinton should get out of the race of the Democratic nomination for president so abortion supporters can unite behind pro-abortion hopeful Barack Obama. One news observer says the comment makes it appear promoting abortion is the most important issue.

New York political talk show host and Newsbusters columnist Mark Finkelstein says it was just another "ho-hum piece by another liberal columnist" saying Hillary Clinton should get out of the race so Obama can take on John McCain single-handedly.
