This is a great article.
You should be proud of writing it.
I agree with almost all of it, 100%.

But, the people who need to be influenced to make their minds up this year are not going to agree with everything you wrote.
Although I think it is a great opinion piece, myself, some of the people that need to be influenced need some kind of a huge wakeup call that hasn't come yet.
They need to be "suddenly awoken" to the fact that Romney-Ryan suck.

We need women to wake up to the fact that Romney-Ryan want to go back to the 50's and make abortion illegal.
Romney-Ryan want to make it harder for women to succeed in the workplace.
They want to make it harder for women to go to college and get an education.
And they want to limit women's choices of how they can live their lives.

It's going to take a Million Woman March to wake them up to the fact that the Republican party wants to return to the early 1950s.
Not just a few of them, either, but the majority of the Republican party.
