Tea Party Feminists?
The tea party movement has become “an insta-network for ambitious women,” writes Hanna Rosin. “Some would surprise you with their straightforward feminist rage.”
More women than men belong to the tea party movement—55 percent, according to the latest Quinnipiac poll. “While no movement that uses Michelle Malkin as a poster girl could fairly be described as feminist, the party has become an insta-network for ambitious women,” writes Hanna Rosin. “Some are aspiring candidates who could never get traction within the tight, local Republican Party networks. Some are angry-mom-activist types who, like their heroine Sarah Palin, outgrew the PTA. But some would surprise you with their straightforward feminist rage.”
