Women step up to fix problems in government

It is natural for us to clean up after others make a terrible mess. We cannot sit on the political sidelines and watch any longer. It is time to take action. No matter what you think of Sarah Palin, she is empowering women to take charge of our current state of affairs. While other countries have or had women leaders, such as Great Britain, Germany, Pakistan and India to name a few, the United States is behind in the count of women in charge. Tuesday’s state primaries showed a change in women willing to fight the battle. November elections will be interesting to watch. Be sure to vote!

Iowa -- Democrat Roxanne Conlin will challenge five-term Republican Sen. Charles Grassley come November.

California – Republican and new to the race Meg Whitman will face former liberal governor Jerry Brown for the governorship. Newcomer Republican Carly Fiorina will challenge Democratic sitting senator Barbara Boxer.

Nevada – Republican Sharron Angle will fight Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in November.

Arkansas – Sitting Sen. Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas has kept her seat to fight in November.

Maine -- Senate President Libby Mitchell will challenge for governor.

South Carolina – Republican state lawmaker Nikki Haley is in a run-off for governor.

WISDOM – At singleparentwisdom.com we offer books of parenting wisdom. Others are choosing the wisdom factor to select who will fix our government’s problems. In Iowa, former 4-term governor Terry Branstad won his primary to challenge sitting governor Chet Culver. California’s former governor Jerry Brown is running for governor, again. There comes a time when we must realize wisdom is worthy.
