Running as a female Republican, I have a gender gap. So it s something that is a problem for all of us. Bob Dole should have a gender gap in a much smaller way than any of us. And then his vision for the future, his economic package, directly goes to the heart and soul of women who are trying to take care of their families and also hold down a job. So I think you re going to see that gender gap close extremely quickly once the American voter and the American woman starts to focus on Bob Dole.
Polls show that women want to keep the safety net, for example.
And I would say that we kept the safety net. What we were trying to do was to make the safety net better. Well, we re not. What we re doing is making welfare work better. Our tax cuts are very important to women, but we can t just talk about them in terms of tax cuts.
