“One other itemm. The SC Primary is almost half women, and the combined voters of Huckabee and Thompson was around 53% women. If PPD’s numbers about a 9 or 10 point lead are true, it would mean that Gingrich is winning the female vote and that the gender gap is not as significant as it was first reported in IA and NH. Haven’t seen this yet, so have nothing to compare it to.”
Yes. Of course Newt will get most of the conservative women vote. He won’t get the vote of most moderate women.
And if he doesn't, he will lose South Carolina by a significant margin. So we'll know definitely, in less than 24 hours, whether women will be deserting Newt in droves or not.
