The Ladies Don’t Like It

It seems like yesterday, but it’s been sixteen years since Greg Maddox and Tom Glavine introduced the Chicks Dig the Long Ball concept.

What chicks don’t dig is the Republican Party:

A detailed report commissioned by two major Republican groups — including one backed by Karl Rove — paints a dismal picture for Republicans, concluding female voters view the party as “intolerant,” “lacking in compassion” and “stuck in the past.”

Women are “barely receptive” to Republicans’ policies, and the party does “especially poorly” with women in the Northeast and Midwest, according to an internal Crossroads GPS and American Action Network report obtained by POLITICO. It was presented to a small number of senior aides this month on Capitol Hill, according to multiple sources involved.

Also, conservative comedians aren’t funny.
