[LEFT]Schumer has a plan for painting Republicans as anti-immigrant and anti-women.
New York Sen. Chuck Schumer believes he has found a political weapon in the unlikeliest of places: the Violence Against Women Act.
Republicans have several objections to the legislation, but instead of making changes, Schumer wants to fast track the bill to the floor, let the GOP block it, then allow Democrats to accuse Republicans of waging a “war against women.”
[LEFT]“Sounds like all politics all the time,” said Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a member of his party’s leadership who also serves on the Judiciary Committee. He added that Republicans would point out the “cynical nature of what they’re trying to do that it’s not based on substance.”
Cornyn added: “We’ll be prepared to address their false narrative.”
[LEFT]Republicans said Wednesday they might move their own bill once the issue heads to the floor. And they pushed back on Democratic criticisms that they were being insensitive to women.

well, it will be up to the republicans to handle the situation. If they play it right, the tactic won't work, if not, republicans will look worse with women.
This is what BOTH parties have done for decades. The bonus is this year thanks to Citizens United, it will be MUCH MUCH more brutal and MUCH MUCH less truthfull... FROM BOTH SIDES.
