This election year we have an opportunity to possibly finish the Republican Party as a viable entity. Please allow me to explain why I see this as a relatively rare opportunity.
There are now more women voters than men voters. The GOPers in Congress badly overreached by attempting to deny women coverage of birth control by their insurance in order to placate religious zealots. They have waged a war on choice. The Congress has historically low approval ratings. They have awakened even non partisan women. Witness the departure of Olympia Snowe. Witness the regret of Lisa Murkowski in Alaska. Witness the retiring NY republican female legislator who said she would vote for Obama.
Please fold me past the squiggly line.
