Laura Flanders of The Nation ponders upon the media-proclaimed "year of the woman" that proclaims that feminism has been seized by the wonderful and surprising GOP women who have done a lot of things to get themselves noticed but have yet to do well, anything. What everyone has missed, Flanders argues, is that this year has been the year of the working woman- but the media can't talk about that.
With unions pouring support into primary challenges for centrist Democrats, you'd think the media would've noticed this storyline as well. If Nikki Haley is a new face for the Republican Party, certainly Mary Kay Henry is a new face for organized labor. So if novelty's not the reason for the love for the new generation of Bushwomen, what is?
