It used to be called “brain washing” but after years of Rush and Fox all that seems needed is a light rinse.

If that was the only issue. But a job, is on the top of the list. And the choice should have been before the got in sack. With all the STD out there you would think women would make sure thier partner used a condom. Oh wait those are the one voting for obama I guess they need a one issue president

My wife and sister both support Romney. They are more concerned about putting food on the table than “Reproductive rights”.

There are as many one issue voters among women as there are men. The majority of people care about more than a small set of issues and, like the Log Cabin Republicans, are willing to risk attacks against their own self interest if it means taking care of the most important issues. I am certain they are hoping that those who would attack them for their ‘social’ choices will fail on individual matters while fixing the myriad major problems facing us. If they are right, and the Republicans will quit talking about opposition to social issues after they win and start working on jobs the economy and other issues, it won’t necessarily be bad for the rest of us. However, if they are wrong.
Well….
There’s always 2014 and 2016.

GOOD ONE, Mr. Rogers!!! I’d really like to go door to door in a typical neighborhood and ask all woman supporting Romney/Ryan WHY they would do such a thing. I don’t think it’s the economy. It can’t be racism. Do they see something in him that I – a man – can’t see? Or are they deaf and blind to the stuff he said and that will be thrust upon him by his own party should he win? Jon Stewart said it well yesterday (about having babies): “IVF, you can’t. Rape, you must”. It’s as simple as that, really…

So your wife can’t depend on you to put food on the table and she’s going to vote for the guy who has put untold thousands out of work.
.
She can’t depend on you to put food on the table and so she’s going to vote for the guy who will double down on the policies that wrecked this economy in the first place?
.
Your wife can’t depend on you to put food on the table and so she’s going to vote for the party that tried to freeze the government instead of sending out unemployment checks to the others trying to put food on their tables?
.
Maybe she’s only telling you she’ll vote for Romney. When she’s in that booth, there might be a “Romnesia” event as she changes her posotion, just for the time being!

If women can vote for any republican…except, I guess, those that have been indoctrinated into believing they are chattel with no identity or individual rights. I honestly cannot begin to understand it.

My right-wing Congressional district will undoubtedly return our Congressman to the House, as will many others. That is far more a tragedy than anything going on at the White House. While Mitt IS an idiot and potential disaster, it’s the House and Senate where the voters have REALLY gone for the “lowest common denominator”.

Yes, recently women have decided to go against their own self interest, and that of their daughters, nieces, grand daughters, a rat or mouse might as well vote for the cat!

That’s the 3rd party. All the undecided rats are going to vote for him.

The Only way I could see somebody voting for Barry again is if they’re on welfare.

@ConserveGov
