Pelosi, First Female Speaker Of The House

I am extremely excited today to write about the Democratic tsunami that recaptured Capitol Hill. In the wake of this tide, Nancy Pelosi becomes the candidate most likely to become Speaker of the House. This will be the first time a female politician has ever been Speaker of the House and it signals a major victory for women in politics everywhere. In fact, it's been rumored that more women than ever were sent to Capitol Hill during these midterm elections. Could it be that grass roots organizations like Mom's Rising have spurred enough women to stampede the voting booths in favor of female candidates?

It has been noted by demographic election profilers that women have historically not voted as often as men. Single mothers, a rapidly rising demographic in America, have also been lax about voting. Could it be this demographic is finally awakening to its political power? I am very excited to think so.

Remember that when a woman runs a house, she sets her sight on providing a safe and productive environment for her children. When a man runs a house, he's likely to cheat the coffer and make the children work for free. It's time we bought the real morals back to the hill, the values of motherhood. Who better then women who are mothers to promote and uphold these values? It's a paradox to think that men can be good mothers when they will never in their lifetimes hold that particular role. What do you think?
