Antonin Scalia: "Sorry women, no privacy rights for you."

Antonin Scalia: "Sorry women, no privacy rights for you."

The danger to women in this election has become crystal clear, at all levels. Richard Mourdock just demonstrated that again by expressing his medieval views on lady stuff. From Mitt Romney, who's standing by the troglodyte Mourdock, to Paul Ryan, who shares that troglodyte view , it's clear that to the GOP today, women are nothing more than walking incubators.

This matters not just in the presidential race, but in keeping the Senate. It matters because of what a radical GOP-controlled White House and Congress could do legislatively, and it matters because of the Supreme Court.

Elizabeth Warren gets it:



>Richard Mourdock's comments are more proof that a GOP-controlled Senate would be a disaster for women.

"For me, it really doesn't matter who's in charge [of the Senate]," Brown said.

Scott Brown, on the other hand, lies about it Coming from the man who gets to vote on Supreme Court nominations and whose model justice is the extremely anti-woman Antonin Scalia, that's bullshit. It absolutely matters. And any truly pro-choice candidate would get that.

Brown is like all of the Republicans who are denouncing Mourdock's statement. They try to make it just about the one guy who says what they're all thinking, but are smart enough to not say out loud. It's the same thing they did with Todd Akin. Brown and every other Republican that continues along with their party's increasing rightward lurch are enablers.



They are attempting to obscure the fact that Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock exposed what is absolutely Republican policy, enshrined in the party platform they adopted in Tampa this summer. There are no exceptions for rape and incest in their official policy.

A Democratic Senate is our stop to this radical policy, and most importantly to potential Romney Supreme Court nominations. A Democratic Senate that is upgraded with true progressives, who won't just be a stop to bad policy but will be fighting to advance good policy, is even more important.

What Elizabeth Warren said: "a GOP-controlled Senate would be a disaster for women." Don't let it happen.
