Been seeing some nostalgic reminiscence of the Anita Hill hearings leading into the 1992 “Year of the Woman” election cycle
Not too much acknowledgment that all that energy yielded a wet fart of a session that dramatically failed to bring liberalism back to government (Hillarycare!), ending with the 1994 “Angry White Men” election where the Republicans took Congress for the first time since 1955, tried to depose the President, and settled for passing the parts of the Reagan agenda the Gipper hadn’t
(Certainly possible to programmatically overlearn from that tho – the Dems probably did on gun control, they were due to lose those southern and rural seats in campaigns with some headline wedge issue)
