BOSTON U.S. Sen. Scott Brown is enlisting the help of a fellow Republican in his quest for re-election. Sen. Olympia Snowe, of Maine was in Boston Monday to campaign for Brown.
Snowe defended Browns vote in favor of giving employers a religious exemption to providing certain health coverage, but some Republican women in Massachusetts have been worried about the direction the national party has been taking.
Meredith Warren is a Republican political consultant. But lately shes found it hard to defend the national Republican party because of some of the positions Republicans have taken, whether its Rush Limbaugh calling a college student a prostitute, or Rick Santorum speaking out against contraception.
Honestly, most of my friends are Democrats, and in a lot of ways I have a trouble convincing them sometimes to consider voting Republican because of their stance on womens issues, Warren said.
