MSNBC Guest: Hobby Lobby Ruling Will Drive Women Voters Into Arms of Dems in 2016

‘I think that you are going to see women think that this is a large problem that corporations are not people’

Michelle Bernard: Hobby Lobby Ruling Will Drive Women Voters Into Arms of Dems in 2016 (NewsBusters)

The Hobby Lobby ruling will be a blessing in disguise for Democrats, possibly this November but most certainly for 2016. That's the argument put forward by two MSNBC contributors on Hardball this evening, Washington Post columnist Melinda Henneberger and Michelle Bernard of the Bernard Center for Women, Politics, & Public Policy.

"I see this ruling as, definitely on the political front, being a good thing for the Democrats, because people are furious and thinking, I think it goes further than it does," Henneberger argued to guest host Steve Kornacki. Minutes later, Bernard saw a big problem for Republicans with women in 2016, if not 2014, insisting that Mitt Romney's "binders full of women" line and "corporate personhood" would be instrumental in locking down droves of female voters for Democrats in 2016.
