And im confident that republicans are going to be kicking ass and taking seats because theyve got a message that appeals to all americans, if you dont count 51 of them. An exclusive report states a study ordered by two republican groups found that female voters feel the party is stuck in the past. They also said the g. O. P. Was intolerant and lacked compassion. Nearly 50 of women had an unfavorable view of the Republican Party. The Republican Party is in worse shape with women now than it was in 2010. Why do you think that is . Im not sure. In spite of all this chatter, were going to have a great year. Stephen yep, great year. Super good. What were you saying . I couldnt hear you with all the chatter about how women hate us.

Now brown is running for senate again in the heart of massachusetts. New hampshire. Against incumbent democrat and dr. Seuss tribute name jeanne shaheen. Unfortunately, brown is losing the women vote to shaheen by 39 to 53 . Havent the ladies of New Hampshire seen his old cosmo photospread . He should have an easy path to the senate. Just follow the treasure trail. But scott brown has a new plan to win female voters give them the women for scott brown hero award seen here being given to New Hampshire businesswoman janice leahy. Brown commemorated the occasion in a press release, saying im pleased to award janice with a hero award to celebrate her determination to maintain a business despite government red tape and burdensome regulations.

Its not like they went to the trouble to put it on the plaque. An extra 2 cents a letter. Jane here was clearly moved by the honor. As she told the magazine, she was left confused and embarrassed by the whole episode, but im sure janine will remember this great honor come election day.

Thank you so much thank you cheers and applause nation, the news right now is a little depressing, but when times are tough, americas small towns show us how folks make do with what theyve got. This is hometown herotown. trumpet sound tonights tiny town that could detroit. Motown has fallen on hard times lately youve probably heard about it on the news, or if youre a local, from the traveling meattraders who scavenge carcasses from the shoulder of the highway. Right now, detroit is mired in the largest municipal bankruptcy in american history. The city manager estimates the total debt is likely to be between 18 billion and 20 billion. The figure is a little vague, since repomen took the citys calculator. laughter but when the going gets tough, the hometown gets hero, and nobody knows that better than detroits Fire Department which, contrary to popular belief, does not start fires. laughter these hard working middleamericans turned their lackoflemons into a lackoflemonade. Jim . Detroit gets about 11,000 fires in any given year. But how it gets those calls may surprise you. The city has no modernday computerized system for getting Emergency Alert. In fire stations all across detroit, firefighters place a pop can filled with coins or screws on top of a fax machine. When an Emergency Alert comes through, the paper knocks down the pop can, the clanking noise means theres an emergency. When a run comes over the printer, it comes out, hits our faygo can. clanks and we get an alert. Stephen thats right, the alarm at many yes, give it up applause can do thats right, the alarm at many detroit fire stations is a faygo can full of screws which is, incidentally, the healthiest flavor of faygo. laughter well done, thrifty detroit firefighters, for showing you dont need the bells and whistles of actual bells and whistles. laughter this wobbly can system is foolproof, provided no one ever bumps the table. And this security innovation is no surprise. After all, detroit is the town that brought us robo cop, which, with todays budget, looks more like this. Dead or alive, youre coming with me drop i it stephen folks, when i see this jerryrigged alarm system, its clear these brave men and Women Deserve more. Chances to make do with less. Theres still plenty of fat to be trimmed. For example, right now emergency calls go to a central dispatcher who faxes it to the fire stations. Why bother with dispatchers when homeowners can fax the station directly . If theres a fire, just remember the old saying stop, drop and roll over to your canon l. C. 2050 laserclass fax machine, then load paper in the tray, place your document textside down into the feeder, dial your local fire station and hit send. Oh and make sure you add a cover letter with the subject header fire laughter applause so bravo to detroits firefighters who solved their lack of an alarm with their cando spirit by saying lets have a cando it. laughter well be right back.
