Maybe you could suggest to Gov. Ritter that he will get more support from women if he nominates one of us for senator, instead of a white male. That’s not representing me! Then, he sends a special letter, also signed by our new senator, recommending an hispanic male for the supreme court. I’m sorry, that doesn’t cut it with me. President Obama is on target. Women want representation.
