Moderator: "Mr. Udall, you've talked so much about women's issues you've been called Mark Uterus." How haven't I heard that before? #COSen

We hadn’t heard that one either, but it’s brilliant. The Denver Post’s Lyn Bartels, moderating Tuesday night’s debate between Republican Cory Gardner and Democrat Mark Udall, noted that Udall has been so singularly focused on women’s issues that some know him as “Mark Uterus.”

@lynn_bartels chides "Mark Uterus" for his singular focus on women's issues, to the exclusion of everything else. #copolitics #cosen

Not everyone saw it as Udall being “chided” and took it as a compliment.

I'm just gonna say it: I'll take "Mark Uterus" over the guy who thinks he should make decisions about my uterus *ANY* day. #COsen

Mark Uterus! I love it! Protecting my rights! #copolitics

Of course they’d drive around proudly with “Mark Uterus” bumper stickers.
Mark Udall outed as an extremist on abortion on 1st question. Pro-partial birth abortion, pro-sex selection abortion #COpolitics #COsen
— Brad Dayspring (@BDayspring) October 8, 2014
Mark Udall's position on abortion is BEYOND fringe. Less than 10% agree with his extremist position. #COsen COpolitics

Mark Udall believes in women, unless they're viable in utero and unwanted. Then . . . not so much. #cosen
