It is obvious that you have given this much thought.

So if your husband says to you that he needs some space, that things are too “confining,” what is your reaction?

Don't you really think to yourself that something else is going on here?

So it these “friends” say that they voted for Obama because the other choice was old and crotchety, then don't you think to yourself that something else might really be driving them?

Here is my bet with you: if you can go for 24 hours without saying the word “I,” then you will receive $100 from me. If you say the word “I” in that 24 hours, then you send $1 to me. 100 to 1. What do you say?

Do you understand my point that people say one thing to justify their actions while they hide the real reasons?

So let me ask you: why did white single women vote so differently than how white married women voted? especially white single women with children? at all age groups and at all professions?

Maybe something else is going on. Who knows? My intent wasn’t actually to defend single women - kids or not - yet I ended up doing just that. That said, who has more contact with single women as friends - who can figure out if there is an ulterior motive - you or me? My personal friends did what they did and voted how they voted and I believe them. Didn’t like how they voted at all, but can’t change it.

And this part of my original post bears repeating: if someone suggested with full enthusiasm that because some men abuse their 2nd Amendment rights (which they do in greater numbers than females) we should therefore take those rights away from all men, would you be furious? That’s where I am with all of this. Regardless of how the votes turned out, suggesting that my right to vote should be removed because of someone else’s behavior is despicable.

Don’t we have an electoral college that determines the official outcome of the Presidential election? Shouldn’t you take your issues up with those folks?
