Asserts the moderate-liberal commentator in New York: "The advancement of women — from Hillary Clinton in Washington to
Marissa Mayer in Silicon Valley — is ample proof of what can be done
when this nation decides to put bigotry right where it belongs. Of course, we can never forget the existence of prejudice. It is a
living thing, a clever disease, and it will remake itself to survive and
fight the dishonorable battle on another day."
Mr. Crouch continues his commentary about next week's U.S. election: "That’s why, next Tuesday, radical Republicans will be surprised if they
think American women will let them get away with what they have said
and what they believe: about rape, contraception, equal pay. They can
deny all they want, but it is all on the public record, the crazy
statements of Todd Akin, Richard Mourdock and all the rest. Hiding behind their faith, these zealots have sought to take away the
very rights women fought for throughout the long, hard decades of the
20th century. In this camp are also Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan — no matter how much
they deny it. They intend to lead a party of the 19th century, or maybe
even the 18th, but certainly not a modern, broad coalition. There is no
room for that on the right."
