DCCC: a gentle reminder about what progressive women do when their rights are in the crosshairs

[calimary]

10. NEVER FORGET THIS: There really are forces out there pushing against

the most basic right for Americans who happen to be female - the right to vote.

I myself heard, with my own ears, talk on the limbaugh radio show years ago when he was in his heyday period, laments about women voting. One man's voice, in particular, stood out: "I think this country started going downhill when women got the right to vote."

They're OUT THERE. They exist. This is REAL. And they'll take that right away if they think they have any sort of shot at it. This bullshit is REAL. And some of the fundamentals behind it have already gained ground as we speak, particularly in THIS grim new era of trump. These forces have really gained a major vitamin booster shot with the trump incursion.

And we can't afford to drop our guard for even a nanosecond. Keep in mind: that's exactly what they most dearly hope for - that we roll over and go back to sleep after we THINK we made some "permanent" gains.
