What you all say is true, but you can be sure this will be front and center of any Democrat smear campaign in what will be a very close contest.

My daughter at the tender age of 18 told me she thought giving the women the vote was a terrible idea based on the shallow type of conversations she had about politics with classmates.

It only gets a little better when they marry and have families.

My daughter at the tender age of 18 told me she thought giving the women the vote was a terrible idea based on the shallow type of conversations she had about politics with classmates.

Not sure you remember this. But in my early years of writing I wrote an article back in March of 2009 about the effect women have had in politics since they were given the right to vote. It was something I wrote as a way to understand why Obama was elected. Especially since women overwhelmingly voted for him.

The best thing about it is the 570 plus comments it generated on FR. It went on for quite some time. The stats FR used back then show the post had well over 12,000 views.

This is the link to the FR post if your interested in the comments. 19th Amendment, Was it the Beginning of the End for America?

The paper I wrote it for changed formats and scrubbed their archives. I recently stumbled upon an archived copy of it on the Wayback Machine, grammatical errors and all. I wes new at writing. It even has the 500 plus comments it generated from the community. To this day, it still holds the record for number of comments the paper ever received on any of their blogs. They actually shut them down after they received 500 comments. No one could keep up to them as they just overwhelmed the newspaper's staff. Today they just ignore blogs.
