“there were 2 very interesting stories on the news wire today. First of all, Majority Leader Dole was addressing a convention in a western State and he said very strongly: Do not send Washington another Pat Schroeder. Hey, thanks, Bob. I am hoping we do not send the White House a Bob Dole, but that is OK. And then I also read on the wire today that Speaker Gingrich gave a speech and said that he felt that the Democrats' advantage with women voters was just artificial and he was going to lead a public relations campaign to turn this around. Hang on, women. Who knows what will happen. First we saw him with little animals. Now it is going to be interesting to see what we see him with in this whole campaign. But I must say, once women got the right to vote, we also have the right to read and we also have the right to drive cars and all sorts of things. I think it is going to take more than a public relations campaign to paint over the record the people on the other side have built up.”
