Leftists need to lock down at least a goodly percentage of the female vote that went for POTUS in 16 - and they need to get this done for the mids.

They don't care about the harassment for sexual stuff - only the potential votes (power)

The thing that really opened my eyes was how NOW reacted to Bill Clinton. It was about this time when Rush started in my market, so it really hammered it home.

During the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings, we we schooled, we were LECTURED about sexual harassment. Not acceptable, EVER, for a man in a position of power to prey, sexually, on anyone, especially an underling. Now, if you accept Anita Hill's story, at its worst, Clarence Thomas told off-color jokes and asked Ms Hill out on a date or two. Thomas was single at the time. Yet, he was vilified as scum of the earth. Then just a few scant months later, Bill Clinton is president. He wasn't talking about pubic hairs on a Coke can, he was raping, exposing, groping, proposition and intimidating everything with two breasts and a vagina.

NOW's response? They backed the predator. I don't even know if NOW still exists, but I never gave them even the slightest credence on anything after that.
