78% of women in Congress are Democrats. 22% are Republicans. Why is it so lopsided?

Ask any liberal on here, Republicans hate women and think they should be kept in the kitchen

Probably because every time a female runs for the GOP, the left trashes them without mercy and accuses women who don't agree with the left of being anti-woman. Look at Palin, the left was seething with hatred and pure rage at the thought of a woman coming to power that didn't tow the far left feminazi line in politics.

Maybe I missed it but how many women have run & lost Congressional races against men for both parties? I'd think you really need that information to get a true picture of what's going on.

I didn't know it had to be an equal split. I didn't realize that the makeup of our representatives was ruled by AA. I thought it was the best person for the job? I gues it's not anymore.

Why are so many liberal talk show/pundit hosts white and male?

Hmm, interesting.

What did the GOP want to do with abortion? Was this a woman's idea or a man's idea?

Women seek out safty and a sense of security. Thats what democrats provide... A "sense" of security.. Welfare, healthcare, 1000's of BS programs in the name if helping someone..

Ask women to vote on any dumb issue regarding these and she will most likely vote for it.. It is the single most reason why the budgets for schools are completely out of control and yet our education system sucks..

It's for the children ....... waaaaaa waaaaa
