First things first: WCF does not support Ann Marie Buerkle
MsRep wants to thank our supporters (especially the New Yorkers!) who reached out to clarify the mention of Ann Marie Buerkle in yesterday’s Brief. Cialis sale, We want to make sure everyone knows that Buerkle is not a woman WCF endorses, cialis sale, as she does not support women’s reproductive health choices.
She was mentioned solely because she is the one woman with an outstanding race, cialis sale, which will affect the overall number of women in the 112th Congress. Cialis sale, If she wins the NY-25 seat, cialis sale, women will hold 16.6 percent of Congressional seats.
WCF invests in women on both sides of the aisle, cialis sale, but only those who believe in advancing our essential and fundamental freedoms. Cialis sale, Otherwise, cialis sale, women’s numbers in public office may rise, cialis sale, but women’s rights, cialis sale, freedom, cialis sale, and quality of life may suffer greatly as a result.
MsRep’s Continued Talk of Palin’s Pack of Petrifying Women
It’s been a very confusing election year, cialis sale, in so many ways. Cialis sale, Given the wide sea of 2010 women candidates and the gaping differences in their values, cialis sale, MsRep has striven to both elevate our endorsed candidates and discuss the larger picture of women and politics.
Unfortunately, cialis sale, that picture has included a sharp rise of extreme socially conservative, cialis sale, anti-choice women, cialis sale, and they became an important part of MsRep’s analysis; pointing out their dangerous views on women’s reproductive freedom and their disconcerting thrust into the spotlight.
One key point in analyzing the state of women’s representation is to report on how many Congressional seats they hold. Cialis sale, That said, cialis sale, we know that’s only one piece of the puzzle. Cialis sale, As Lauren wrote this week, cialis sale,
“We saw an increase in the number of anti-choice women elected this year (and lost a handful of proven advocates for reproductive health choices), cialis sale, and have created quite a dangerous landscape for women’s freedom, cialis sale, health, cialis sale, and quality of life.”
Ann Marie Buerkle is one of those women.
WCF Heartbroken after Midterm Elections
As MsRep said yesterday, cialis sale, this year’s midterms were especially difficult for WCF, cialis sale, as we sent our entire staff onto the campaign trail with a number of our extraordinary women who support women’s reproductive health choices. Cialis sale, Unfortunately, cialis sale, we saw many more losses than wins, cialis sale, especially with our incumbent Congressional candidates—thus creating the fragile state of women’s freedom and privacy.
We take the recent backslide in women and advocates for reproductive health very seriously. Cialis sale, To ensure we can reverse this damage in 2012, cialis sale, the fight starts now.
Will you help WCF get a jump-start on propelling women forward in 2011 and beyond?
Your super-early investment in women candidates (and potential candidates) can have the most impact on their success. Cialis sale,

Purchase viagra
With last night’s concession of Rep. Purchase viagra, Melissa Bean, purchase viagra, the news we feared has come true: Women’s representation in Congress will decrease for the first time in over three decades as a result of the 2010 midterms.
Exactly how far we will backslide remains to be seen, purchase viagra, with Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Ann Marie Buerkle’s (NY-25) races still too close to call. Purchase viagra, If both win, purchase viagra, women will hold a total of 89 out of 535 Congressional seats, purchase viagra, or 16.6 percent.
If both Murkowski and Buerkle lose, purchase viagra, the furthest we will backslide is to 87 women in Congress; 16.2 percent.
Add to this the fact that we saw an increase in the number of anti-choice women elected this year (and lost a handful of proven advocates for reproductive health choices), purchase viagra, and we have created quite a dangerous landscape for women’s freedom, purchase viagra, health, purchase viagra, and quality of life.
So where do we go from here? How do we move forward knowing that women voters didn’t come to the polls to save their own advocates this year? How do we motivate women across the country to undo this damage in 2012?
And will any of us see women hold 50% of the seats in Congress, purchase viagra, state legislatures, purchase viagra, or governorships in our lifetime? At this rate, purchase viagra, the answer is no.

One must be informed to fight the abysmal state of women’s political representation.
Gutty Murray Toughs Out Narrow Win
MsRep has to say it: Patty Murray is one tough politician. Buy cheap viagra online, In a difficult year for Democrats and incumbents, buy cheap viagra online, she held off Dino Rossi–albeit in a very close race–to win her fourth term in the Senate. Buy cheap viagra online, (Rossi conceded last night.)
Only four other women have achieved this feat and thus served as long or longer in the Senate: Maine’s Margaret Chase Smith; Maryland’s Barbara Mikulski; and Californians Diane Feinstein* and fellow class-of-92′er Barbara Boxer. Buy cheap viagra online, (Actually, buy cheap viagra online, having first won a special election in 1992 to fill a partial term, buy cheap viagra online, Dianne Feinstein has served long than both Boxer and Murray despite winning only three regular elections since…so Murray has actually won one more full-term election than DiFi.)
Congrats Patty! WCF is proud to have worked on your campaign and thrilled to have your needed presence in the Senate.
Equality: Ur doing it wrong.
Seeing this headline on POLITICO yesterday almost made many of us cry: “John Boehner’s boys: The new power club.”
We couldn’t resist putting a more fitting caption on this testosterone-overloaded picture.
Post-Election Powerhouse Press Call
WCF’s president Sam Bennett and political director Erin Cutraro hosted a fantastic media call yesterday that included some high-caliber experts about, buy cheap viagra online, and participants in, buy cheap viagra online, women’s politics:
- American University’s Women & Politics Institute Director and author Jennifer Lawless
- Renowned Center for American Women and Politics Director Debbie Walsh
- Groundbreaking former Virginia Congressional candidate Krystal Ball
- Leading political strategist Celinda Lake
- Terri Sewell, buy cheap viagra online, the first African American woman elected to Congress in AL-07
The panelists took questions from WCF members and the media about Tuesday’s election results and what it meant for representation in Congress and elsewhere. Buy cheap viagra online, Read some of the great coverage of the call by NPR and the Associated Press.
Somebody Should Sack Shuler
After Tuesday’s House losses, buy cheap viagra online, it’s perfectly reasonable for there to be talk of a change in Democratic Caucus leadership to replace Nancy Pelosi from what now becomes the minority leader’s position. Buy cheap viagra online, It’s clear that Republican strategy to demonize the unpopular Speaker, buy cheap viagra online, as the Washington Post’s Eugene Robinson discusses, buy cheap viagra online, worked on Tuesday.
But Heath Shuler as the new minority leader–is he kidding?
The former Redskin quarterback–once rated by ESPN the 4th biggest NFL “draft bust” of all time–couldn’t carry the Speaker’s luggage through an airport without fumbling. Buy cheap viagra online, MsRep presumes Shuler is just trying to raise his profile or provide himself some electoral safety in his swing district by looking like the tough guy who challenged Pelosi’s authority.
Women In The New Congress
During WCF’s press call yesterday, buy cheap viagra online, many women and politics experts explained that the share of women within each party caucus held the same because Democrats lost women and men in roughly the same proportions as they presently have, buy cheap viagra online, and the same for Republican gains by gender. Buy cheap viagra online, It’s only because the current Democratic caucus is more female (23 percent) than the GOP caucus (9 percent) that the net Democratic losses pulled the overall female share down. Buy cheap viagra online, Washington Post blogger Garance Franke-Ruta takes a closer look at those new GOP women.
Women Not In the New Congress
Elsewhere in the WaPo, buy cheap viagra online, Jason Horowitz examines the fate of three female GOP statewide candidates–Meg Whitman, buy cheap viagra online, Carly Fiorina and Linda McMahon–who, buy cheap viagra online, despite their business backgrounds and ample campaign resources, buy cheap viagra online, lost Tuesday in what otherwise was the so-called “Year of the Republican Woman.”
The Economy–Not Anti-Choice Positions–Elected Them
Citing WCF’s own Jodi Jacobson–in a post she wrote over at RHReality Check–Salon’s Tracy Clark-Flory provides the cold, buy cheap viagra online, hard truth: Even though many anti-choice candidates who won congressional races did so because of the economy, buy cheap viagra online, watch for them to claim their victories were a mandate to restrict reproductive freedoms.
Change Slow For Female Candidates in Two Laggard States
Despite’s Nikki Haley glass ceiling-breaking victory in the governor’s office, buy cheap viagra online, South Carolina still has the smallest share of female state legislators in the country; halfway across the country, buy cheap viagra online, Utah has only had one female governor, buy cheap viagra online, one House member and no Senators–and none of the women running this year won. Buy cheap viagra online, CarolinaLive.com’s Lisa Edge writes that South Carolina still has a long way to go toward women’s equality, buy cheap viagra online, and the Salt Lake Tribune’s Peg McEntee argues the same is true in Utah.
Meghan McCain: O’Donnell “Out Of Her Frickin’ Mind”
Yikes–let’s all please get out of Meghan McCain’s way. Buy cheap viagra online, She let failed Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell have it the other night on The Tonight Show, buy cheap viagra online, saying she’s “out of her frickin’ mind.” She also echoed Karl Rove’s assertion (joined by WaPo columnist Michael Gerson) that Sarah Palin is not ready for prime-time, buy cheap viagra online, especially because her forthcoming Alaska reality show is “unpresidential.”
Female Breadwinners Still Must Make the Sandwiches At Home
So, buy cheap viagra online, as women gain economic parity in their marriages by advancing in status and salary at the workplace, buy cheap viagra online, the balance of duties at home is shifting as well so that men are shouldering more of the burden around the house, buy cheap viagra online, right? Um, buy cheap viagra online, sorry, buy cheap viagra online, but no.

You don’t have to be a professional number cruncher to know that with so many seats in Congress about to swap parties, order viagra online, it also means that we’re swapping people who have been there and done that (aka incumbents) for people who’ve either never been there and done that, order viagra online, or have only been there and done that in local settings under local or state procedures.
In other words, order viagra online, freshman orientation for the 112th Congress and for new governors will probably be more like a hangover than a party, order viagra online, with the old hands being like the sober, order viagra online, designated drivers who retained clarity, order viagra online, agility and the wherewithal to do whatever they want with the still dizzy pledges.

All the single ladies? Some of the ladies? Anyone?
Poll after poll has shown a giant lack of enthusiasm among women voters—something that has continually puzzled and frustrated MsRep and other politically-active women. Buy cialis cheap, Colleen Flaherty talks about a few signs that this is indeed true, buy cialis cheap, especially among young women voters. Buy cialis cheap, MsRep hopes that all women prove these polls to be dead wrong today.
Nine Reasons Women Need to Vote this Election Day
Speaking of which, buy cialis cheap, Anea Bogue also wants women to get out and prove the pollsters wrong today. Buy cialis cheap,
Ninety years after the ratification of the 19th Amendment, buy cialis cheap, which gave women the right to vote in this country, buy cialis cheap, we find ourselves having made great strides toward equality between men and women, buy cialis cheap, but there still exists a gap that must be closed.
Anti-Choice Female Governors Poised for Gain
Our warnings and concerns over the surge in women candidates who do not support reproductive health choices were, buy cialis cheap, unfortunately valid. Buy cialis cheap, As Mary Kate Boylan reports in Women’s eNews:
“In the small number of races where women are running for governor today—eight out of 37—the anti-choice female candidates appear poised for more election victories.”
Only one of the six female gubernatorial candidates who is solidly pro-choice—Alex Sink in Florida—enjoys a polling lead and even she’s not considered a shoo-in.
7 Women Analysts Discuss How Women Will Affect GOP’s Chances Today
By now, buy cialis cheap, MsRep’s loyal readers know 2010 has been a non-stop debate about the role of women in the GOP.

Buy cialis cheap, She spent the final day of the campaign first in Nevada and trying to shore up Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s re-election bid, buy cialis cheap, before flying east to Pennsylvania to stump for Senate Democratic candidate Joe Sestak.
Whitman, buy cialis cheap, Fiorina Bids Fading Late
In what may be the ultimate anomaly of 2010, buy cialis cheap, why are neither Meg Whitman nor Carly Fiorina likely to win their respective races in a state with a reputation for electing women, buy cialis cheap, during a year in which Republicans are surging and female Republicans in particular are a big story? Meredith Vivian of USC’s Annenberg School of Journalism offers a pretty compelling explanation:
Unfortunately for Whitman and Fiorina, buy cialis cheap, neither is the type of woman that California wants or needs. Buy cialis cheap, California has a history of electing intelligent, buy cialis cheap, thoughtful and strong-willed women with a passion for improving the state. Buy cialis cheap, Californians have elected them to Congress, buy cialis cheap, the state legislature, buy cialis cheap, city councils and school boards. Buy cialis cheap, And I hope that one day in the near future, buy cialis cheap, we will elect one as governor of California.
Alaska Senate Seat Up For Grabs
Wow. Buy cialis cheap, MsRep cannot ever remember a poll this late in a general election, buy cialis cheap, statewide contest in which (a) three candidates were bunched so closely together; and (b) so many voters still undecided. Buy cialis cheap, But that’s what’s happening in the crazy Alaska Senate contest, buy cialis cheap, where the top three candidates—incumbent Republican Lisa Murkowski running as a write-in because she was defeated in the primary by Joe Miller, buy cialis cheap, along with Democrat Scott McAdams—are separated by less than two points…which is within the margin of polling error. Buy cialis cheap, And more than one in five Alaska voters polled are still undecided.

Boxer, cialis cheap, Murray Races Key to Control of Senate

Cialis cheap, Relatedly, cialis cheap, the Las Vegas Sun’s Jon Ralston predicts Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will hold on, cialis cheap, if barely, cialis cheap, against Sharron Angle.
Palin Endorsed More Men Than Women in 2010
Palin the feminist? Maybe not. Cialis cheap, Politics Daily correspondent Sandra Fish points out that, cialis cheap, “Only 25 of the 90-plus general election candidates Palin has endorsed or donated to are women.” To be fair, cialis cheap, the GOP once again has a smaller share of female nominees this year who made it through primaries to the general election than do the Democrats. Cialis cheap, But as Fish argues, cialis cheap, Palin’s picks may have more to do with shoring up her support among Papa Grizzly types who will have a lot of input on whom the Republicans will nominate for president in 2012.
“Paladino Runs Like Scared Little Boy”

Five Female Political Analysts Discuss 2010’s “Year of Woman”
MsRep gives major kudos to The Atlantic’s Rachel Horn for interviewing five top woman political analysts—Jennifer L. Cialis cheap, Lawless, cialis cheap, director of the Women & Politics Institute at American University; Linda Tarr-Whelan, cialis cheap, author of Women Lead the Way; Dianne Bystrom, cialis cheap, Director of the Carrie Chapman Catt Center for Women and Politics; Susan MacManus, cialis cheap, University of South Florida political scientist; California Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey; and Debbie Walsh, cialis cheap, Director of the Center for American Women and Politics—and asking them to explain why so many women ran for office this year and how 2010 compares to 1992.
In Gloria Feldt’s latest column, cialis cheap, she tells women there’s nothing wrong with getting angry about the political system and angry with politicians—so long as they channel that anger into voter turnout rather than voter apathy. Cialis cheap, MsRep of course agrees, cialis cheap, but here’s Feldt in her own words:
“Troubling signs portend that this year, cialis cheap, women voters, cialis cheap, unlike men, cialis cheap, aren’t getting mad or even—they’re getting depressed. Cialis cheap, More accurately, cialis cheap, they are turning their anger inward instead of using its energy to propel action.
Instead, cialis cheap, Democratic and progressive women of all stripes need to take a “get even” attitude as their new mantra. Cialis cheap, And they won’t get even by not showing up at the polls or by voting for a Republican out of anger at the Democrats’ failure to live up to their promises. Cialis cheap, That’s simply self-punishment by leaving power unused.
