Not really. I believe as science advances further it will become much the same argument as climate change.

Actually, what real women want in politics.

As long as we continue to attack "Stay at home Moms" and associate them with Hitler we should be able to get Obamy re-elected....

I'm a stay-at-home mom. I don't feel attacked.

:thumb: Great. You are among the alone! Many disagree....

Which is why there's a 17-point gap between Romney and Obama when it comes to women!

...Oops, wait, that's 17 points FOR Obama. Nice try though merc.

Got a link to that poll? Those out today do NOT show that at all.

Ibby 05-15-2012 09:08 PM

What do today's show? I don't have any link, but 17 was, if i recall correctly, the number I heard on TV earlier today. I could be off by a few points, but I've seen polls shown in the past couple weeks showing double-digit gaps between obama and romney when it comes to the lady-vote.

TheMercenary 05-15-2012 09:09 PM

Who freaking cares.... the only Poll that counts is the one that kicks his stupid ass out of office. All the rest are speculation.

Depends upon which ones you agree with.
Some have O ahead by a few - another has R ahead by a couple. :eyebrow:

Ibby 05-15-2012 09:35 PM

Overall, or among women, classic?

TheMercenary 05-15-2012 09:39 PM

Great Sign Line!

classicman 05-15-2012 09:39 PM

Women

Here's from today, via Kos:

Let's look at the latest national polling (excluding the daily trackers, which don't provide gender breakdowns), plus a couple of recent state polls:

Gender gap

NBC/WSJ (5/15-20) All Women Men

Obama 47 53 40 +24

Romney 43 38 49


dKos/SEIU (5/17-20) All Women Men

Obama 47 51 42 +19

Romney 46 41 51


WaPo (5/17-20) All Women Men

Obama 49 51 47 +9

Romney 45 44 49


IBD/CSM (5/17) All Women Men

Obama 43 45 41 +10

Romney 40 37 43


Fox (5/13-15) All Women Men

Obama 46 55 37 +27

Romney 39 33 46


PPP-PA (5/17-20) All Women Men

Obama 50 56 43 +25

Romney 42 36 48


SUSA-NC (5/18-21) All Women Men

Obama 44 50 38 +23

Romney 45 40 51

Compare it to two weeks ago, and it's clear that the gap hasn't gone anywhere. Obama maintains significant leads among women in pretty much every one of those polls.
What makes some gender gaps less pronounced is the percent of men Obama gets—the better he does among men, the smaller the gap.

That's not exactly good news for Team Red, which needs to run up big margins against men to have any chance of victory. Because they sure as heck ain't gonna pick up the ladies.
