Two pro-Hilary Clinton groups will be joining forces to launch a multi-million dollar campaign in hopes of energizing young female voters to vote against Republican “extremism” in the 2016 presidential election. Priorities USA, the biggest independent expenditure super PAC backing Hillary Clinton’s presidential run, will be working alongside Emily’s List’s Madam President project in kicking off a “war on women” themed campaign intended to push female voters away from supporting the eventual Republican candidate in the general election. The groups hope to raise at least $20 million to pump into the campaign to paint the Republican presidential field as wanting to interfere with women’s access to health care along with opposing fair pay.Obviously, Priorities USA is a huge Hillary booster group that was, until a week ago, led by worst-governor-in-Michigan-history Jennifer Granholm. Granholm left the organization to run another pro-Hillary outfit, called Correct the Record. You'll be hearing a lot more from them, since they're tightly linked with the Clinton campaign. Emily's List is a radical pro-abortion group that proudly proclaims it's having its best fundraising year ever. We're sure this has absolutely nothing to do with a recent series of horrific and damning undercover videos. Anyway, if you're interested in knowing who's behind the 'Republicans hate women' effort - and how much they're spending to spread the lie - now you know. Hillary's cheerleaders have decided that their only hope of dragging Mrs. Clinton across the presidential finish line is to label her opponents misogynists early and often. ...Even if they have to squander tens of millions to do it. Interestingly, when these two groups start yelling about "equal pay," one of their targets will be the woman they're supporting. After all, Senator Clinton paid her female staffers 72 cents on the dollar compared to their male counterparts. ...Or maybe that was just another part of the vast right-wing conspiracy. These days, it can be so tough to tell.
