Shock Poll: Romney now leads among women
Washington Examiner ^ | MAY 15, 2012 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 05/15/2012 8:30:57 AM PDT by RobinMasters

President Obama’s claim that the GOP is mounting a war on women has proven to be a failure. A month into his assault on the Republicans and Mitt Romney, the new CBS-New York Times poll shows that the GOP presidential candidate now leads among women--and men.

Since April, women have gone from strongly backing Obama to endorsing Romney. In April, Obama held a 49 percent to 43 percent lead among women. That has now flipped to 46 percent backing Romney with 44 percent for Obama, an 8-point switch.

Ironically, Romney’s support among men has dropped, but he still edges Obama 45 percent to 42 percent.

And here’s a surprise: Despite the media hyping the so-called war on women, no major outlet today noticed Romney’s new lead with women voters.

“This is unbelievable,” said conservative consultant Greg Mueller. “The CBS story manages to not mention the change in women numbers,” he said, adding sarcastically. “No media bias here -- Obama is getting fluffy stories about his commencement speech to women at Barnard -- so we better bury the reality.”

But, but.......the liberals have told us that women are outraged about the war on women. The liberals have told us that women fear having birth control taken away. The liberals have told us that women fear being forced to undergo ultrasound procedures in private bodily regions. The liberals told us that women earn 70 cents on the dollar, and that Republicans want to keep women down in so many ways.

Did the liberals lie about all of that??????

The jungle fever appeal faded once they announced Obama was gay.

Now, they got Mitt, who's creepy but at least he's straight.

Lonely house frau calculus.

Just for entertainment: here is a post over at our favorite libs website with their panic-ing comments as reality hits them in the face. Looks like the American people are letting them down.

Example comment : 33. Apparently, a lot of poll respondents think bullying is a-ok. nt ,
LOL, Sorry, this is funny.

CBS News/NY Times poll: Romney leads Obama (DU post with destressed lib comments )

Some of the other threads there are recommending pulling out all the stops at throwing any mud they can at MR including attacking him for being a Mormon. They are getting pretty angry over there. Very entertaining!

*rubs hands together gleefully*

I know it’s a long ways until November, but this is just beautiful. It’s been a long, long time since I’ve seen a political ploy as obvious and contrived as Team Obama’s “GOP War on Women.” I also find it, by extension, condescending. Axelrod and his ilk must not think very much of voters, especially women voters, to think that many of them would really buy into it.

Mitt will make it easier for the private sector to create jobs for women and their grown kids that are living at home. Women have been hit hard by the Obama collapse.

the left is not saying “let them win” and we will get everything and more next time.

no “losing is winning” BS.

We need to take congress and crush the left.

Wife, mother and step-mother, generally conservative voters voted for obama last time, to give him a chance.

None will make the same mistake again.

Even before the "gay marriage" flip-flop, I think the "composite girlfriend" revelations put a big 'ol blip on the average straight female voter's gaydar.

At the very least, it makes Obama come across like an internet dating site fraudster.

RE :”the left is not saying “let them win” and we will get everything and more next time.

Anymore than Republicans did in 2004.

The dynamics are very similar except Obama was lucky to have Pelosi lose the House so he can run against Republicans this year and try to blame them for everything.

Liberals have a big advantage over conservatives, their candidate really believes what they believe. Obama is a committed liberal/progressive (over here the more popular term is ‘Marxist’) What does Romney believe in?

That is true with Pelosi versus Boehner too. Pelosi is a true believer, what does Boehner believe in?

It's just bad, lose-lose.

Apparently most women would prefer that they or their husbands get a job rather than Obama pick up the nine bucks a month for their pill at WalMart.

“to give him a chance”?????

How about Hitler or Mao?

Should we give them a chance as well?
(I guess not, they aren’t “black”)

Sorry... just expressing my flabbergastedness...
