More proof that Democrats's "War On Women, War On Moms" backfired:
More voters think Mitt Romney and the Republican Party respect women who work outside the home than think President Obama and the Democrats respect women who stay at home, according to the latest The Hill Poll.
Forty-nine percent of likely voters said the presumptive GOP presidential nominee respects women who have independent careers, while 27 percent said he doesn’t and 24 percent weren’t sure.
When asked if President Obama respects women who stay at home rather than pursue a career, 37 percent of likely voters said he doesn’t and 35 percent said he does. Twenty-nine percent were unsure.
[...]
When it came to just women voters, 46 percent said Romney better understands their issues while 41 percent said Obama is better.
There was also a statistical tie when it came to which political party is better for women, with 42 percent of all voters saying Republicans and 41 percent Democrats.

Part of the problem for the Democrats is that they forget most women have a male partner (and many have sons). They realize that they can’t just focus on narrow “women’s issues”.
0zer0 won in 2008 partly because he dominated the woman vote. That’s why the dumbcrats are desperate to try to replicate this in 2012. I think this election is going to be a squeaker, but if the dumbcrats lose the woman vote, it will be a bloodbath for them like 2010. They will lose the Senate and the White House. They understand this so they have to keep pushing gender warfare. Hopefully, they will over reach and fail just like everything else they try.
Just read in a local conservative paper that in the last 4 months there has been a strong shift in 18 to 29 voting age toward Obama.
John Edwards and Bill Clinton shouldn’t have branded their floozies “nutty sluts”.
I wouldn’t believe it. Just look at what the Regime is reduced to in a last ditch effort to excite a voting block. Doing the Fallon show. Do you think the Regime would do that if they didn’t have to? Obummers polls are flat and under 50%. No voting block is swinging anywhere near him, especially the irrelevant 18-29 year olds.
The socialist political parties race each other to the bottom.
“They realize that they can’t just focus on narrow “women’s issues”.”
They probably realize that like the “youth vote”, they are losing the “femi-nazi” vote as well (based strictly on financial considerations), and have to at least reign them back in. There are few demographics that are “better off than four years ago” (government employees, illegal aliens), so they are going to have to fight for every single vote.
Any Republican candidate should be a shoe-in simply because nobody believes Obama can fix anything anymore, and many believe that Obama doesn’t even think there are problems (he is detached in a wierd way). It isn’t even about assigning blame at this point; people will happily let Obama off the hook and sing his praises while they cast their ballots for his adult opponent. While Romney wasn’t my first choice, he’ll easily beat Obama because while many point out his lack of conservatism, the most important thing for Romney is that he hasn’t failed yet.
I agree with you; the only people I know that are still in his corner are public school teachers (that haven’t been laid off). I work with some very demoralized blacks; they may vote for him anyway, but the thrill is gone - they know they are worse off than 4 years ago.
Without jobs, he has no hope of drawing the “youth vote” as he did in 2008; he now has a track record (a miserable one), and student loan forgiveness won’t put gas in people’s cars or pay their rent. It effects a narrow demographic at a high price.
I find it frightening that the economy alone is what will probably defeat him; he deserves to lose for so much more...
Its amazing that is works. It must work they keep doing it? I mean, appealing to the gullible/illogical/emotional/stupid amoungst us.
All you do is divide people into subcategories, and then you say “the Republicans are against (pick a subcategory)” and bing they vote Democrat every time.
The irrefutable logic being: the Republicans are against us therefore the dimwits are for us.
That and the dimwits are handing out “free” stuff and getting the “rich” to pay for it.
When skin color is the reason for your decision, you are a racist and both Bull Connors and Martin Luther King would agree on that fact.
Blacks are the biggest racists in the USA, and second in the world only to the Asians {vs} Asians.
The chinese, japanese and koreans hate each other more than they hate round eyes, and more than American blacks hate American whites.
African blacks don't have anywhere near the racism that our ghetto dwellers have.
