here at home, it's hoosier common sense. >> moderator: thank you. the issue of abortion and contraception continue to divide the country, and questions received from voters reflected the divide. for example, a voter wants to know your position on a woman ice right to abortion, but to contraception and other reproductive health services and whether government should provide it. another asks if you believe life begins at conception, and that person's view, what do you do to protect the babies that could be aborted during your term in the senate? where do you stand, mr. horning? horning: this is a tough one. all of us up here said we're pro-life. what does that mean? in terms of the federal legislature, you know, there's not really any authority granted to the federal government in matters of even murder. that's a state level crime. unless it crosses state boundaries, it's not supposed to be a federal matterment on constitutional grounds, i oppose row v. wade as law, it's not it's an unconstitutional law. under the color of it, it's wrong. we've been d

of my service in united states senate, i've had the distinct honor to spend considerable time with hoosier servicemembers and veterans from all branches of the military. each time i'm reminded of how important we are as a nation to have so many young men and women who are willing to step forward now to defend the ideals upon which our republic was founded. as one of our duties in congress to ensure that those who bear the considerable burden of defending our nation in the military service receive the care and support they have earned upon their return to civilian life. since its founding in 1919, the american legion and its members have worked closely with officials at the local, state and federal levels in providing that support. i'm also very proud to note that the american legion is headquartered in my hometown of indianapolis, indiana. i was especially pleased to meet with jim most reflate in august during the american legion's 94th national convention in indianapolis. where he was elected to serve as national commander. he brings a wealth of experience to this post. this includes his

i think hoosiers still have maybe a greater sense of expectation when it comes to privacy in the home particularly. so, in the voip and cloud-based robocalls began, and rachel was working her magic in the hoosier state. the spike in these complaints really kind of geometric growth on the complaints. and some of them come as a real shock. i want to express the, let's say, righteous indignation i receive in letter every day, but a lot of it comes from the relative peace and quiet we have received in the past, and now they're not used to having these calls, and wonder, why can't you keep people from calling me? so i think a lot of states didn't have the same experience in indiana. they always had a little bit of the robocalling so they kind of got used to it in indiana it's come as quite a shock, and i have 17,000 complaints i can share. the fully express the righteous indignation of my state. i think on -- the breakdown of the complaints really come in a number -- it's the largest bulk is clearly the robocalls but we do have complaints about text-messaging, which is only 17%, and then 3

what i think is the voters at hoosier state will say who can best create jobs and control the deficit have a senate that has not passed the budget in three years and if he's elected and he'll go with harry reid and he'll have more of the same and we're not going have a balanced budget, and i think people will focus on that. overall, i think what we are going to be focused on overall is the economy, the creation of jobs and who can help get this country moving again. >> i can hear you, karen, chomping at the bit. >> 30% and 40% of women, women voters and these were in battleground states. abortion is the top voting issue for them, not the economy. access to abortion which women see as an economic issue and as a civil rights issue and those women are not likely going to vote for republican candidates who say, talk about rape in the way that we've heard it discussed and it also exposes the republican party more broadly to the electorate when you've got not just murdoch. it's aiken and you have others who are making these comments and i do think there's damage there. >> you know what? jus
