Conway: Conservative women held to a ‘triple standard’ — "We're constantly going back to where I sat, the presumptive negativity of what I wore or what I said, and I do think it's a triple-standard," she said. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais) | Pablo Martinez Monsivais

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway said conservative women are held to an even higher standard when it comes to what they wear and do.
