"Newt Gingrich was very, very, very welcoming to all of us who were women. I mean he really just pushed us out front," said North Carolina Rep. Sue Myrick.
"He was the one who said immediately, 'We're going to put women in the chair. We're going to put women on committees.' He said, 'You would be a good appropriator.' He did do that," added Rep. Kay Granger of Texas.
They and other House members recently talked about Gingrich's promotion of women Republican members at a seminar hosted by the moderate Republican Ripon Society.
The September session was focused on broadening the Republican's base by reaching out to women and three House members offered up that Gingrich, not typically associated with championing women's rights, moved swiftly to promote women when he became House speaker after the 1994 "Republican Revolution" election

Gee, that doesn’t fit the narrative.
With him being Mormon, I heard that Mitt has always welcomed women to the family colony in Mexico.
Well, you know those slobs would LOVE to say, “Female Members Elevated Gingrich”/s;)
I talked to a successful female President/CEO today in Ohio who far prefers Newt to Romney. she was impressed with his debate performance and said she would be sending Newt money.
FAIL. Gingrich won women’s vote in SC primary, exit polls show ... Go Newt!
What a totally stupid thing to say. Sounds like a typical Letterman nasty and futile attempt at humor.
Let’s criticize Romney on the facts.
bttt
No thanks, I will continue making jokes about Bishop Romney any time one comes to me. I guess you will simply have to endure our mockery of the goofy loser.
Here is how he described me and my favorite sporting rifle.
