My FRiend. I actually thought he did pretty good in the last debate. Almost none of the points he made can be refuted, as far as I know. But he comes across as a tattletale. He doesn't come across as a man's man. That simple. He's unelectable for that very reason.

Of those standing, only Santorum is electable in the general election.

For someone that seems to lean on polls... how do you explain the present poll numbers for the 'only electable' Santorum?

Yes. Of course Newt will get most of the conservative women vote. He won’t get the vote of most moderate women.

And if he doesn't, he will lose South Carolina by a significant margin. So we'll know definitely, in less than 24 hours, whether women will be deserting Newt in droves or not.

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

100% pure dee conjecture on facts not in evidence.

That said, the 'ol lady says there's no friggin' way women will vote for this guy and men just don't get it.

The infidelity allegation are 3rd on the list after:

1. He's old and ugly

He's perceived as uncaring.

If this is true, and I suspect it may be, it's the best argument for repeal of the 19th I have ever heard.

American women voters, on average, are both stupid and destructive of the Republic.

UTTER NONSENSE!

The same was said about Sarah Palin, yet at all her appearances, women are the majority of her supporters!!!

“I don’t know a single woman who’ll vote for him.”

Well, meet one! Me! ;o)

I think it’s a mistake to try to cram all women into one barrel just because we’re women. Some of us model ourselves after Hillary Clinton . . . and some of us try to emulate Maggie Thatcher. Are you hanging out with a bunch of closet Democrats?

“Most American women whether they be Democrat, independent, or Republican will not vote for a man who cheated on his previous wife(s).”

Tell that to Clinton. The guy had a bimbo eruption every other week including during campaigns.

Agree. Santorum is not electable in the general election. If the general becomes focused on social issues as it would with Santorum, the middle, and they exist, will flee from our side as fast as they can. Santorum will scare the s**t out of them. I wish it wasn’t so,I like Santorum personally, but reality tells me otherwise. As for Gingrich, the focus will become Newt and all his baggage. Since Newt is a bit of an egomaniac he will play right into the trap, since the issue will become his favorite subject, Newt. So reality tells me he will also go down in flames in the general. The middle will be repulsed by him like its 1999. As for Paul, no explanation is needed. If Obama faced Paul he would get lots of chances to get 18 in. That leaves one standing, Romney. Is he what everybody says he is, in a negative sense, sure. But he gives us the best chance to get us over 50%. Hell, he has a good chance of winning this. I can see the apolitical middle, those secret Obama voters of 08, easily pulling the lever for Romney, but not for the other three. Do I wish a more conservative candidate with a great record and charisma were our nominee, your damn right, but he or she never entered the race, or maybe even exists. If we lose this one, the next ones will not matter so much.

How do you do Mr./Mrs. DarkWolf.

You have met a single woman who is going to vote for Newt. :)

Just wondering if this is one of those bitter would-be Perry-fellators who just can't let go of the dream...

(Red State kicked Palin to the curb a while back to become wholesale shills for Perry until even Erick had to admit that Anita's little dream was over.)

Cheers!

Can you re-work the legend on that photo?

"NEWT IT FROM ORBIT. IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE."

Cheers!

Someone should've reminded ol' Nina that if you give oral sex, you won't NEED an abortion.

Look at the photo again -- then look at the cigarette on the knee.

How many fingers are there? Are they holding hands or something?

Cheers!

"What the Hell is wrong with you?"

Nothing.

It's true.

Over 60 percent of American vote democrat...EVERY election since WWII.

I'm glad you're in the 40%.

Did you notice the "on average" qualifier?

I'm thinking you didn't.

I'm thinking you're a thinking person and don't vote...across the board...Democrat.
