I know I'll get flame blasted for saying this, but she is just one of hundreds of examples of why women should have never gotten the vote. We would be a right-of-conservative country now if they hadn't.

Way ahead of you there!

I'll second that. Most females are gullible and don't want to think beyond a candidate's facade. Critical thinking is not something MOST females are capable of. Yes, I'm serious and it IS true. It's all about the pretty package and their EMOTIONAL response to it, not the contents!

Females are led by their EMOTIONS. REAL men, not so much.

Just one of many studies about how the women’s vote has changed this country. We have gone from being governed by common sense and logic to being ruled by emotion.

Abstract:
This paper examines the growth of government during this century as a result of giving women the right to vote. Using cross-sectional time-series data for 1870 to 1940, we examine state government expenditures and revenue as well as voting by U.S. House and Senate state delegations and the passage of a wide range of different state laws. Suffrage coincided with immediate increases in state government expenditures and revenue and more liberal voting patterns for federal representatives, and these effects continued growing over time as more women took advantage of the franchise. Contrary to many recent suggestions, the gender gap is not something that has arisen since the 1970s, and it helps explain why American government started growing when it did.
