As with their male counterparts, their views are dictated by the constituencies and by their individual beliefs as well as party loyalties. Other than Bella Abzug, who, one of her supporters warned, "will come to Washington and turn this town upside down," they fit most easily into the traditional patterns: liberal, conservative, Republican, Democrat.
