People, like my husband, like to say, "If that's the way things go, they'll get what they deserve." But, I'm undeserving and you're undeserving and those of us who think things through, know the long-term consequences, don't deserve another Republican president whose interests will benefit the 1% at the expense of the rest of us.CaliforniaGirl500http://www.womenofcertainage.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929216211968531577.post-32844936528534214572012-08-18T11:14:40.032-04:002012-08-18T11:14:40.032-04:00And anger!!!!!

Since this was gender issue, do any of the female GOP members feel conflicted?

They had more centrist electees and were willing to work along bipartisan lines. That is all but eliminated now no thanks, in part, to this goofy Tea Party movement and the media adoration & attention given to the likes of extremists like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck and know-nothings like Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann.
