GOP Goes After Women in a Big Way: Well Female Candidates and Voters Anyway

It seems that the "binders full of women" might turn into actual conservative women if this full-court press works out.

The RNC, joined by the National Republican Congressional Committee, Republican Governors Association, National Republican Senatorial Committee, the Republican State Leadership Conference, and the College Republican National Committee, launched “Women on the Right Unite” which will oversee two other initiatives announced to encourage conservative women to run for higher office and nurture them once they are there, as well as getting more women involved in conservative politics.

The National Republican Congressional Committee announced “Project GROW” (Growing Republican Opportunities for Women), which is focused on recruitment and campaigns, while the Republican State Leadership Committee launched “Right Women, Right Now,” which pledges to recruit 300 new candidates, with the goal of electing 150 women at the state level.

Let's hope that these conservative women that have been recruited from this initiative aren't future Sarah Palin's and Michele Bachmann's. I would love to see a renewed GOP Intellectual Class (yeah there was one once) with a female William F. Buckley coming to the forefront to challenge liberal ideas when it comes to women. A cheerful and smart conservative woman who isn't fingernails on the chalkboard like Ann Coulter is something that America really needs right now.
