NEW VIDEO: 2012 - Year of the Woman

While Rush Limbaugh and the Republicans wage a war on women that aims to roll back healthcare coverage and block access to contraception, Democrats are committed to stopping them in their tracks. As our new video http://www.dscc.org/waronwomen declares, Democrats believe it's time to end the culture wars and get back to work for the middle class. It's quite a stark contrast to Limbaugh and his Grand Old Party.

In MA, Scott Brown Runs From His Anti-Women Blunt-Brown Amendment

Scott Brown is trying to run away from his support of his amendment that would have blocked access to basic health care services, while at the same time attempting to blame Elizabeth Warren for the political uproar around his extreme measure. The Warren campaign said it best – "He paid for a radio ad, wrote a newspaper column, taped a video, and did numerous interviews all talking about his legislation that threatens women's healthcare. Now that people are outraged, he wants to change the subject, claiming he's focusing on job creation." http://www.bostonherald.com/news/politics/view/20220303after_setback_brown_turns_attention_to_jobs/

GOP Fears Long Primary Will Cost Them Senate

Republicans have long seen 2012 as a chance to win back the White House and the Senate. But now, Republicans are worried that their long, drawn-0ut, nasty presidential primary will cost them the opportunity to expand power in Washington, according to "The Hill". What's bad news for Republicans is good news for Democrats. "In every primary, we've seen just how disappointed Republicans are in their candidates. The longer the Republican primary goes, the longer we have to continue to build," said Obama campaign manager Jim Messina.
