From Salon: This news comes by way of Politico’s Meredith Shiner and Jonathan Allen, who appropriately point out the obvious conflict here: “The party’s own platform calls [abortion] ‘a fundamental assault on innocent human life.’” The RNC didn’t opt out of abortion coverage, though, even though that is allowed by Cigna, its insurer. Worse yet,...

... new female candidates." And the GOP wonders why it has trouble reaching women. Seriously. Meredith Shiner and Glenn Thrush spend two pages exploring "the GOP's women problem," which is twofold: The number of female Republican candidates for office keeps dropping, and women voters stubbornly keep favoring a party that at least pretends to care about our needs (not that...

As you may recall, 176 Republicans voted "Aye" for the Stupak-Pitts coathanger amendment this week. Only one GOP vote was contrary, and it was a "Present." Pretty solid Republican opposition to providing a level playing field for all women when it comes to obtaining a medical procedure that has been legal for 36 years (despite right-wing efforts at intimidation, harassment and...
