HuffPo: Rep. Richard Hanna (R-NY) Tells Women To Donate To Democrats

    Whoa! ... Why not just switch parties? Hanna claims his rebellion is in the Republican Party's interest. The key quotes below.

    I think these are very precarious times for women, it seems. So many of your rights are under assault... I'll tell you this: Contribute your money to people who speak out on your behalf, because the other side -- my side -- has a lot of it. And you need to send your own message. You need to remind people that you vote, you matter, and that they can't succeed without your help.
    This is a dogfight, it's a fistfight, and you have all the cards. ... I can only tell you to get out there and use them. Tell the other women, the other 51 percent of the population, to kick in a few of their bucks. Make it matter, get out there, get on TV, advertise, talk about this. The fact that you want [the Equal Rights Amendment] is evidence that you deserve it and you need it.
    I'm trying to help [the GOP]. I think it's the appropriate thing to do.
