obviously, not sure how progressive Ms. Vine is on other issues. I personally found her commercial posted here a bit exclusionary "women and children", as if men are unable or unwilling to raise children. Or that men are not sometimes abused by women. I singlehandedly raised my children, from ages 5 and 7, after their mother (my wife) died. A more inclusive message would not raise my hackles as much, but as I am not in the 3rd district anyway, my opinion means squat. I get it with women's healthcare and similar issues on the forefront after Roe was reversed, but family mental health and and well being is a far broader issue which she seems to see only from the woman's perspective.
