Somehow I just don't see conservatives promoting feminist causes very enthusiastically, at least not as much as Democrats would.
Although Republicans were leading Democrats in promoting womens suffrage, the Stats don't bespeak very well of a party that wants to promote women into the highest office in the land. I'd say that Dems are twice as likely to put a woman in the White House as Republicans.
