Nick,
I am not sure that you realize what you are saying, but as perhaps the most
vocal conservative on this List, let me ask the obvious question anyways:
Do you believe that I, as a conservative, quote, "by definition... favor
preserving the male domination of political power?"
I personally suspect that abortion views are playing some kind of role in
here, and that due to the lack of prominent pro-life women politicians,
many Republicans may tend to reflexively assume that a woman politician is
pro-choice.
At any rate, though, I am very interested in your answer to my question.

seggregation, increases in income inequality as quickly as possible, and
the impoverhing of people of color......
