1. After today's stunt with PP defunding vote, HRC's numbers will increase

Women across the country watched intently as this vote was taken & No there were no cheers when it was defeated but many sighs of relief, followed by a personal promise to join hands to defeat the good old boys in 2016.
I think more women & men are more aware today, of how close this came & how far the GOP will go to silence & shove women's equal rights down on the bottom of their shoes.
They laid out their hand for all to see today & they insulted & pissed off a lot of people.
This is Emily's List of women they are funding to replace those who refuse to be on the side of fairness & equal rights:
From the donation page. Scroll down to see these strong women candidates supported by Emily's List, along with their choice for candidate, Hillary Clinton.

and the reason why the GOP senate was defeated in the attempt to defund PP. It will be the usual coverage of e-mail gate, Benghazi and how everyone hates HRC. VP Biden to the rescue and the surge . . ..

This poll above won't get mentioned at all. Q's poll is gospel.

Furnishing birth control and the ugly statements Rush gave. Santorium thinks sex for procreation only so guys should listen also. They want to control women and in the end it will be men also.
