Progressive Women Take On Palin

A leading progressive women’s group is challenging former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s “Mama Grizzlies” campaign to put conservative females in office.

Entitled “Sarah Doesn’t Speak For Me,” the new campaign from the PAC Emily’s List is attempting to energize Democrats and moderate Republicans fed up with Palin. The campaign’s website allows visitors to share their opinions on the Republican Vice Presidential candidate and offers a guide to the position’s Palin’s candidates have taken.

“We understand the power of the rising tide of women voters,” EMILY’s List President Stephanie Schriock said Tuesday during a press conference to kick-off the campaign. “We know that the rising tide of women voters this year want more opportunity … in direct contrast to the candidates Sarah Palin has endorsed.”

Schriock would not give a dollar figure for the campaign.
