Highlights From The “The Obama Economy Isn’t Working For Women” Press Conference Call:
SEN. KELLY AYOTTE: “I think it was very insulting for President Obama’s adviser and DNC strategist Hilary Rosen to make the comments she made about Ann Romney yesterday, that she never worked a day in her life.

He left the state with a $2 billion rainy-day fund and an unemployment rate of 4.7 percent. He’ll bring that same experience and passion for reform to Washington, D.C. … American women are tremendously concerned about our debt, our deficit, jobs and the economy. They want better lives for their children and their grandchildren, and we are piling a mountain of debt on our children and grandchildren when we refuse to reform entitlement programs in order to save them and when we refuse to cut spending in a manner that creates a soft
