I’m responding to posts to me. If people don’t want to hear my opinions they shouldn’t post to me, or read my posts.
Women gave Senator Kerry just a three point edge in 2004. In 2000, Al Gore won the women’s vote by more than ten points. That’s 7 percent who switched sides in 2004.
Juvenile comments on politicians’ appearance didn’t have anything to do with that switch.
You stil haven’t proven that Rush Limbaugh’s ‘strategy’ is the reason why “Republicans made significant gains with white women in 2008 over 2000.
Any evidence for that claim?
How about you prove your little girl feminist attack against Rush, since that is what all of this is about.
You have done nothing but whine this entire thread.
You are ignoring the people most likely to be affected by the Rush Limbaugh “strategy”, white women.
In 2008, the female vote for Republicans was the same as it was in 2000, yet with white women the republicans did 4 points better than in 2000.
The losses among Hispanic and Blacks in 2008 versus 2000 were offset by the gains from the white women.
There isn’t a lick of evidence to support your anti-conservative male, feminist whine.
You made a claim you haven’t supported with evidence.
Asking for evidence of a claim made is not an ‘attack’.
Republicans GAINED 7 percentage points among women in the 2004 election (from 2000). They lost those 7% and then some in 2008.
Even if you are correct about your ‘white women’ claim (which won’t win you elections in any case), you still haven’t provided evidence that those gains were due to Rush Limbaugh’s ‘strategy’ ... which was your claim.
The ball is in your court because YOU made the claim, not me.
You seem to have drifted off to another thread, this one is “With Ugly Sexism of Rush Limbaugh Right-Wingers, Republicans Have Lost Women for Good” an untruthful claim that you have been defending fiercely, although ineffectively and inaccuratly.
What is your source for this? “Republicans GAINED 7 percentage points among women in the 2004 election (from 2000). They lost those 7% and then some in 2008.”
You first.
What first?
What is your source for these numbers?
““Republicans GAINED 7 percentage points among women in the 2004 election (from 2000). They lost those 7% and then some in 2008.””
"Republicans made significant gains with white women in 2008 over 2000, Rush Limbaugh’s strategy seems to be working."___ ansell2
Your post #167
Do you have any evidence for YOUR claim that Rush Limbaugh's strategy is responsible for an increase in white women's vote for Republicans between 2000 and 2008?
It seems that you have abandoned your attack on Rush and are also unable to defend those false election numbers that you claimed.
It seems you can’t or won’t support your claim about Rush Limbaugh made in your post #167.
I was mocking your “strategy” comments and I still am, although I do believe that Rush is very much a strategist and conducts his show in a very deliberate manner.
Like I said you won’t defend the numbers that you posted and after all this time you are abandoning the thread subject, so my question is why? Why be so emotional and argumentative when you had nothing except feminist emotions to drive you, is the “sisterhood” identity so powerful to your type that you will group with even the radical left when you feel that a “sister” any “sister” is being dissed?
The article is by Bonnie Erbe, a radical feminist.
The subject of ridicule is Nancy Pelosi for crying out loud.
The video is by the leftist activist propaganda group Media Matters for America.
The subjects under attack are our most media effective conservative spokesmen, including the conservative giant Rush Limbaugh.
So who are you pulling every manipulative trick that you can think of to defend?
I don’t know if your anger is more driven by hatred of those conservative men or your protection of Bonnie Erba.
You’re the one being emotional and calling names.
All I’ve asked you to do is to back up your claim about Limbaugh being responsible for the increase in the white women’s vote from 2004 to 2008.
Simple request. That’s all.
I never made that claim but if anything the strategy of Rush’s and the rest of much of the conservative movement to ridicule Nancy Pelosi that you and Bonnie Erba and Media matters are attacking appears to be working.
Under these attacks her numbers are plummeting, and producing this 51 second video is reactive evidence of damage control from your side although you seem to have finally abandoned defending Erbe and Media Matters and Nancy Pelosi on this thread.
