“...most studies show pretty conclusively it is because women tend to vote on emotion and men tend to vote on logic.”

I’d sure like to see a list of those studies. I, and most of the women I know, are extremely logical. Cause and effect mean a great deal to us. Our emotional component allows us to see a larger picture, but doesn’t necessarily or automatically override logic.
“Men tend to look at the numbers and ask “does the program work”. Women tend, for whatever reason, to be more receptive to the argument that we should spend more on these things no matter what (or that it is simply good enough that we keep trying no matter how wasteful).”

Good grief! What *study* did THIS come from?
“Hence the made up “war on women”. Sadly though, that stuff tends to work ...”

Among the women I know, the vast majority find this *manufactured war on women* meme utterly ridiculous. It’s not working for them this time.
Overall, my input is that Republican WOMEN ought to promote some strong, logical PR on the subject to both educate and counter the nonsense being put forth by these juvenile Democrats.
There is no “gender gap” in favor of the Democrats among married women.
For those for whom the government is the provider and protector, the “gender gap” is huge.
The person you’re posting to is right in a way, but not in the way he expressed.
