APTurnout was relatively light across Massachusetts on Tuesday as voters
chose which Republican and Democratic candidates will win their party primaries
and go on to campaign in the state's second special U.S. Senate
election in four years.The race to fill Secretary of State John Kerry's
former seat has been overshadowed by the Boston bombings, though turnout
in the city was running slightly ahead of another special U.S. Senate
primary three years ago in part because of an additional local race
on Tuesday's ballot, the state's top elections official said.Even before
the bombings, the campaign had failed to capture the attention of voters
compared with the 2010 special election following the death of longtime
Sen. Edward Kennedy. Former Republican Sen. Scott Brown won the seat but
was ousted last year in another high-profile race by Democratic challenger
Elizabeth Warren.Two Democrats, both members of the state's congressional
delegation, and three Republicans are vying for their parties' nominations.A
win would help Senate Democrats maintain a caucus edge of 55-45 as
they press forward on major issues like immigration and gun control.The
Boston Marathon bombs disrupted the political race, forcing the candidates
to temporarily suspend their campaigns. The bombings also brought national
security and terrorism issues to the fore in an election that was
expected to turn on questions of the economy, gun control, taxes, immigration
and aborti
WASHINGTON The government is moving the morning-after pill over the counter
but only those 15 and older can buy it -- an attempt
to find middle ground just days before a court-imposed deadline to lift
all age restrictions on the emergency contraceptive.Today, Plan B One-Step
is sold behind pharmacy counters, and buyers must prove they're 17 or
older to buy it without a prescription. Tuesday's decision by the Food
and Drug Administration lowers the age limit and will allow the pill
to sit on drugstore shelves next to spermicides or other women's health
products and condoms -- but anyone who wants to buy it must
prove their age at the cash register.Some contraceptive advocates called
the move promising."This decision is a step in the right direction for
increased access to a product that is a safe and effective method
of preventing unintended pregnancies," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash. "It's
also a decision that moves us closer to these critical availability decisions
being based on science, not politics."But earlier this month, U.S. District
Judge Edward Korman of New York blasted the Obama administration for imposing
the age-17 limit, saying it had let election-year politics trump science
and was making it hard for women of any age to obtain
the emergency contraception in time. He ordered an end to the age
restrictions by Monday.The women's group that sued over the age limits said
Tuesday's action is not enough, and it will continue

<p style="font-size:xx-small;"> n.Obama will announce Wheeler's and Watt's appointments from the White
House Wednesday afternoon. The White House officials spoke on condition
of anonymity because they weren't authorized to publicly discuss the appointments
before the president's formal announcement.Watt's nomination comes at a
crucial time for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two federally sponsored mortgage-finance
enterprises that the government rescued at the height of the financial crisis
in September 2008 as they teetered near collapse from losses on mortgage
loans gone bad.Taxpayers have spent about $170 billion to rescue the companies.
So far, they have repaid a combined $55.2 billion.Fannie and Freddie together
own or guarantee about half of all U.S. mortgages, or nearly 31
million home loans. Those loans are worth more than $5 trillion. Along
with other federal agencies, they back roughly 90 percent of new mortgages.The
nomination comes as the housing industry is making a comeback. Home prices
are up, foreclosures are down and housing construction is on the rise.
Moreover, Fannie Mae had its biggest yearly profit last year, earning $17.2
billion.Watt, a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee
and former chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, played an influential
role in the passage of a financial regulatory overhaul in 2010. That
legislation, however, did not address the fate of the major mortgage lenders,
an issue likely to come up during Obam
For the 85 to 90 percent of Americans who already have health
insurance, this thing has already happened. And their only impact is that
their insurance is stronger, better, more secure than it was before. Full
stop. Thats it. They dont have to worry about anything else.-- President
Obama at a press conferencePresident Obama had some gnarly news for the
Democratic campaign committees: This is as good as it gets for his
signature health law.In a press conference on the 100th day of his
second term, Obama found himself on the defensive and short on answers.
Syria genocide? Were looking into it. Benhgazi whistleblowers? Never heard
of them. Intelligence gaps on the Boston Marathon bombing? This is hard
stuff.Presidents usually dont have press conferences unless they have something
they want to say, especially Obama who much prefers batting practice to
swinging at fastballs when it comes to media queries.So why did insular
Obama step to the podium on Tuesday if he didnt have more
definitive answers to the pile of policy and political questions reporters
would surely lay at his feet? Had he wanted to push a
topic, Obama might have just beckoned Steve Kroft or Matt Lauer back
to the White House.The reason for the press conference instead seemed to
be for Obama to assert that despite a string of defeats, he
is still relevant. Having been twice brushed back by Senate Democrats and
with his second-term agenda looking like a dead letter, Obama wan
