Last week, I wrote about some of the radical and far-right Republican candidates in Arizona and Florida who are already on the attack and taking special interest money. Now it's time to highlight the dedicated and accomplished women whom we are supporting in these races -- Ann Kirkpatrick, Gabby Giffords, Alex Sink and Suzanne Kosmas.

Yesterday, we watched and waited as Republicans in Arizona and Florida cast their votes in competitive primary races. The outcome? A slew of ultra-conservative candidates ready to take on our pro-choice Democratic women in November. These Republican nominees are extremists fighting for policies that are harmful towards American women and families.

Rep. Kosmas helps family cut through red tape

Much is asked of our servicemen and women, but asking the family of one sergeant to jump through bureaucratic hoops to help the family's quest for a reunion was going too far. That was, until the mother contacted her representative – EL Cong. Suzanne Kosmas (FL-24). Suzanne and her staff took up the family’s case, meeting last week with Lacey Mercer, whose husband -- Justice -- is on his fifth tour in the Middle East.

The GOP isn't wasting any time plotting for 2010 -- and top on their list of priorities is taking down freshman members of Congress in moderate or conservative-leaning districts, including women we've helped elect.
