Here comes our First Lady, Alpha Female...can the GOP handle 8 years?

I've been walking around with this big smile on my face now since cali. Get ready America, here comes our First Alpha Female! I hope this empowers more women to step up and demand their place at the head of the table.

Reminds me of all the years after 2000 and 2004 I had to hear GOPers tell me to 'deal with it'. Then Obama got into office and did better then any leader since FDR...they didn't deal with it well. NOW they will have to 'deal with it' again.

Karma, my love.

When women hold high elected positions. More women then think of doing the same. The higher the position the more profound the effect is. Awesome! Plus women elected officials bring women issues to the forefront! WIN-WIN situation for us all!

Imagine a female President! Imagine the reverberations all over the country!

Also it affects boys because when they look at girls now they''ll think that this girl could be a future President! GREAT!
