Let's face the fact that women because of their maternal instincts are attracted to different issues than men. They are more security concious which makes them more susceptible to arguments for bigger government. They are more attracted to eye appeal images than men which helped Willie immensely.

They do have it over men in the area of pragmatism which can be good or bad. They are reluctant to fly off in war driven adventures of foreign policy because of protecting their children which is good. They are hell to live with but hell to live without. Seems to me, women suffrage is about a draw. Men have done a pretty good job of messing this country up.

women are more likly to respond to emotions, which have no place in a what should be a dispassionate debate (such as the long term consequences of a law). Women are what put clinton in office.

Here is something I'm curious about: It's pretty clear that men are more interested in the purely visual appeal of the opposite sex than women are. They have Playboy, cheerleaders, exotic dancers, celebrities like Pamela Lee and Britney Spears, etc. A woman can be "just pretty" in a way that a man can't ("Pretty boy" is a put-down). But you hardly ever hear of a woman getting elected based on her looks. Men might ogle Pamela Lee all day, but they would never elect her to anything. In so many other areas of life, a woman's face is her fortune, but not in politics. I can't think of a female politician who made it on her looks the way that, say, Britney has made it in music on her looks. It's as if men get more reasonable when it comes to important matters.
