All right women ladies listen up because women's rights are a hot topic on the campaign trail as they always are every election -- -- have been answering some pretty tough questions about jobs the economy equal pay.

Planned Parenthood and family issues.

And yesterday the president using a conference on women and the economy in hopes of reaching out to some -- -- And there's been a lot of talk about.

Women and women's issues lightly as there should be but I do think that the conversations been oversimplified.

Women are not.

Some monolithic block.

Women are not.

An interest group.

You should be treated that way.

Women are over half this country.

And its workforce.

Not to mention 80% of my house sold -- -- my mother.

You got to commend them for living with all those lemon right there imagine living what your mother mom I've done that.

I don't think my husband had joining me now are Angela McGlowan Fox News political analysts -- -- is Green the former president of the women's media center thank you both ladies.

For coming on.

So the president says he's got his finger on the pulse of women he knows what we want he knows what we're looking for an a president.

And according to the latest Fox News poll he's right in fact if if the election were held today.

How would you vote is how we asked if the candidates were Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.

49%.

Look throughout the poll say Obama 37%.

Say Romney.

And even if you add the undecideds to the Romney's column because right there it says that about.

A 7% -- you don't know he would still beat Obama according to this Paul.

-- he still wouldn't beat Obama so Obama seems to be raining pretty hard -- Angela what are Republicans doing wrong.

Well it's not actually what we're doing wrong liberals are very good with the -- in the bottom line is this if you won't get equal pay today.

Women make 77 cents to men making one dollar now Obama I had -- stand -- and the house whiny -- through this legislation that.

The bottom line is this he has not done things for women he is not create a better America for women.

So Republicans have to get out there and get their message out there and do -- and Julian -- not doing.

-- -- -- -- Q first of all.

We -- we just brought up very Angela did equal pay and that is an issue that.

Really burns on the nerves of every single working woman in this country why -- that that -- first of -- are still making more and are our Republicans.

I guess it.

-- in that category when it comes to practicing for the economy -- pressing to get women back into work is more and more women are actually out of the workforce.

-- under this particular administration.

Well I had Julie yes it's pretty whack that women artists making seven of seven cents on the dollar for -- away and asked that that I had -- the words right out of my mouth.

I do think the whole methods around the war on women actually said this on the O'Reilly Factor last night.

That -- is a creation of communications professionals on the left.

But it also is based on the reality of what we -- seeing across the country.

Just you know yesterday you had governor Scott Walker in Wisconsin yet repeal.

The act equal pay -- there in Wisconsin one of governor Romney's.

Biggest -- gets.

And Angela talking about the paycheck fairness act look at it is the same guys who are trying and leading the fact.

That the fight to defund.

Planned Parenthood who are the ones who defeated the paycheck fairness OK so you -- hard to keep complaining and and -- -- ordinary -- many Angelo Reyes -- about didn't do well bottom line is as you add -- to know that women care more.

Ads in just about planned parent said.

And getting free contraception.

Today we had a head of households where they had bread winners and -- we heard that it's patient well it's about long term health care for our.

So Scott Walker even -- doing what he did.

Does not represent the Republican Party as a whole it's an excellent.

Thank governor Romney and where he stands he's one of the biggest circuits we haven't heard.

The governor come out but I -- You know -- packet came -- Mitt Romney is actually holding in and his his popular wife.

They are holding an on the economy and he actually says that that that jobs in the economy are among two of the top issues that he's not necessarily focusing so much on social issues and he actually -- -- I wanna quote that he wants women to have a bright economic future.

For them and their kids I mean what woman doesn't want -- bright future for their kids and -- do you believe the Democrats often too often perhaps.

Focus on the woman's right to choose and birth control of you just mentioned abortion.

Those seem to be the issue that we often hear Democrats talk about but what about all that jobless women that we've got under this economy right now I mean.

This there are out of the 740000.

Jobs loss since Obama took office 683.

Of them were held by the end.

Look silly -- that that's exactly why I'm asking why is governor Romney silent on the fact that one of his legal surrogate one of his most prominent supporters.

Just took away equal pay for women in Wisconsin that's something yesterday I think you know out on video so -- come out and -- the -- in the expansion -- That's something he should be speaking out -- look this president's record when you look at.

-- that.

Waited he had to drag it Republicans and conservative -- kicking against Greenland.

He's perhaps a payroll tax cut that benefited 75 million women now get a thousand dollars more out per month.

These Republicans did not want to see that happen.

President Obama -- I know my -- not -- on and it's not me yesterday next.

All right Angela what do you think do you think women are being left out of of of the job market under president Obama's administration.

I -- -- number all people.

Are being left out of the job market when women go to vote in the ballot box and women -- the winds in the mid term election.

-- make a difference what Republicans step back house.

Women got a -- -- pocket book women -- -- -- about education and Republicans stand stronger and that -- didn't know.

The president holding some type of conference.

And the White House it's not going to create more jobs but I literally the president enacted in a better America I have got to -- not that budget that.

-- -- Republicans just past week poor women out to do rise.

There is no power -- position in favor of women coming from Bob Ryan is not -- different.

-- -- insulated them and call a timeout and you know but believe me I would like to spend the next 45 minutes on this I don't know the producers -- -- probably a good.

Absolutely -- they don't want to hold a moral failure Obama you can't fight got so but there's still a lot of time as well ladies thank you very much female and Angela.
