The One Simple Reason Newt Gingrich Will Not Win The General Election: Women

Posted by RealQuiet (Diary) December 7th

Newt Gingrich has conducted a brilliant campaign strategy since he stumbled back in late spring regarding Paul Ryan’s Path to Prosperity Plan. He has been masterful in debates and shown an eagerness to take on and fight the media elite. He has owned up to his personal and political mistakes and stated candidly what his positions are, though many may disagree with them but still live with them.

He hasn’t shown the brash ego and self-centeredness that reared its ugly head so many times when he was the Speaker of the House. He certainly seems to be a changed man.

BUT…..

Though Gingrich has engaged in his own political cronyism and playing both sides of the fence on political issues like Mitt Romney has in the past (which the Republican voter seems to be willing to overlook), there is one thing that will stop him from winning the general election:

A considerable majority of American women will not vote for him because of his past marital actions of betrayal

Most American women whether they be Democrat, independent, or Republican will not vote for a man who cheated on his previous wife(s). Among women, men like this cannot and will not be trusted. People like to point out that Ronald Reagan had two wives. The key thing is Ronald Reagan never cheated on Jane Wyman, his first wife. She left him because there was nothing left in common between them as she claimed. That is a very big difference.

He is running against the metrosexual or bisexual Obama. Newt will clean Obamas clock. Obama will be Rick Rolled by the Newtron bomb!

Simply reason Romney will not win - Third Party conservative splits the anti-Obama vote.

We need someone who is ELECTABLE, for once.

All of my female friends love Newt, and I live in the South.

He is the Repo Man this country needs to take back our Country. Repossess our Country.

"This fear of Obama’s “electability” is ridiculous."

Boy, did we think Klinton was toast, especially after taking the House and Senate. Sound familiar?

We did not work hard enough to secure Klintoon's defeat.

I am a 58 year old Christian Conservative woman. I support and will vote for Newt Gingrich. I am very impressed with how he handles himself with tough questions, such as the conversation with the gay man. I love how he came back at CNN and separately at Juan Williams.

Moral values are important - my highest priority is pro-life, which is his position. His marital shenanigans and other ethical lapses concern me, but I think we need a capable man who cares about our country and will fight for it. I doubt if any, except perhaps Rick Santorum, have no skeletons whatsoever, and I think he is most qualified of the remaining crew to lead.

Like many, I believe that 4 more years of President Obama and his pals would take this country down the tubes completely.

“I’ve been startled by the volcanic hatred from Newt from women on the right”.

Same here, Dw. The women I know, be they young or old, all seem to hate him. SIGH.

I’ve been startled by the volcanic hatred from Newt from women on the right and middle I meet. I don’t know a single woman who’ll vote for him.

You can sure put my wife in that category.... she HATES Newt.. I can't get past that with her, with ANY topic.

Not that I try all that hard... re: Newt.

How about all the women out there that are married to men who have nutty ex-wives bothering them? Won’t they be motivated to vote for Newt?

I am sure that there are many of these women out there. There is nothing more dangerous than a vindictive ex-wife.

RE:"They STILL want to vote for Bill Clinton in droves."

"I'd be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal," boasted former Time magazine White House correspondent Nina Burleigh about Bill Clinton. She made her offer known to Washington Post media reporter Howard Kurtz when he called to discuss a piece Burleigh penned in the July/August Mirabella magazine detailing her lust for Clinton.
