misogynistic misdirection; when Republicans do it, DU is up in arms.

Disclaimer: I am not putting Franken in the same pile as Moore.

That said, rallying around Franken because he's a "D" is too mirror-like to the other side rallying around Moore for comfort.

This woman is thrilled to see women finally speaking up against the good-ol'-boys network of misogynistic predators and the embedded cultural sexism that created them.

When there is no gender imbalance of power, when no finally means no, and when men pay consequences for violating that "no," THAT's when we've gone far enough.

It's not a "witch hunt" to force that long-needed cultural change.
