You should be happy that I'm giving Trump credit where credit is due. If the GOP had elected someone who wasn't such a sleazy, misogynistic, sexual predator many of these women probably wouldn't have been motivated to run.

I didn't see in the article where any of the candidates said they were running because they, like you, feel Trump was as sleazy, misogynistic, sexual predator.

They will do whatever their husbands and sons tell them too. We know that. Hillary told us.

When will conservatives ever learn to read and understand? Did you not read this part, "All things being equal" or this part, "unless there is an overwhelming reason to vote for a male democrat."? If you would pay better attention to the actual words maybe you would understand better.

While I may not agree with the political viewpoints of certain women running for Congress or Governor, I do recognize we do need more women in political office. Now, if more than half of the U.S. Congress become women, maybe we should worry.

What the hell is “underrepresented”?

And when a woman does not win, will they take from the Clinton playbook and blame men?

Did it really take Trump to get more women active? Why not so active before?

Do these women expect other women to automatically vote for them due to they are women?

How do we know these are all women?

I thought we weren't allowed to assume genders?

Do you need a definition of the word, or do you simply not understand the concept?

This surge of female candidates is a direct result of having put a misogynistic sexual predator in the White House
Pure B.S. This is nothing more than your opinion, and you know what they say about opinions, don't you?

This is a perfect example of why Donald Trump won. People are just fed up with this kind of crap from Leftists. Have you ever looked at your own Party's history? Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, JFK, and many, many more. There are no "saints" in the Democrat Party.

Yeah, yeah ...I know. "Whataboutism." But, if there ever was a sexual predator, it was William Jefferson Clinton.

The Republican Party has had plenty of women in offices across the country. This might be a new phenomenon for the Democrats, but it isn't new for Republicans.

Next time, do some research.
