Dem. Rep. Says Sexist GOP 'Repulses' Women

Meredith Shiner and I write today on the GOP's persistent trouble recruiting, retaining and attracting women, particularly in the House.

The exception seems to be among hard core conservatives, with Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) and Virginia Foxx (R-NC), emerging as populist folk heroes on the right.

But that doesn't necessarily make them appealing to independent and moderate women, says Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), herself a rising star among a larger class of Democratic women.

Asked about Foxx and Bachmann, Wasserman Schultz, blasted away:

“This is a party that doesn’t respect women, a party that doesn’t believe women are equal to men,” she told POLITICO. “I don’t think [Bachmann and Foxx] attract women to their party,” she said. “I think they repulse women.”

HA....maybe we conservative women do NOT want moderates....you idiot....we want women who understand FREEDOM and LIBERTY and the Constitution! Moderate and liberal women are merely the SLAVES on the DEMOCRAT PLANTATION....the GOP has NO SLAVES! At least not conservative ones.

“This is a party that doesn’t respect women, a party that doesn’t believe women are equal to men,”

I'd ask if she were really that delusional, but I already know, she IS.

If the women Republicans are repelling are like Wasserman Schultz, then I am all in favor of it!

Wasserman-Schultz is pretty good looking for a Rat...there’s something wrong with this picture. Could she be a transvestite? Or maybe a conversion is in the offing...

We also have Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Kay Bailey Hutchison, and in the past we’ve had Libby Dole, Susan Molinaro, and Christie Todd Whitman. Say what you like about them all, the Republicans have the widest scope of women in the party. It certainly confirms that the Republicans are the party of the big tent. In contrast, I believe, the Democratic women are very similar in terms of ideology.

I look at the women on the Democrat side. No wonder the Barney Franks of this world feel comfortable with them. Less competition for the “most fashionable on the catwalk” on their side of the aisle.

Ummm, Debbie...the point is that they’re not TRYING to appeal to independent nor democratic women and could care less.

They are conservatives, with conservative principles.

Frankly all these democrats and republicans calling themselves moderates should just get together and form their own party...there’s not a whit of difference in them. AND neither one of them is useful to the majority of Americans who are conservative and certainly not to the radical commies in power right now.

Not to worry, this is going to change. Change, I think we will be able to believe in.
