"It's just simply this: In order for Kerry to win, he's got to carry women," says Andrew Kohut, director of the Pew center.

Carry them where?

Women have been the key to Kerry's wealth

We know he's got the COMMIE MOMMIES....but I'm betting the Security Mom's go for Pres. Bush!

Good thread Norm... The President vs The Proverbial Pandering Pissant!!! Last night on the McLaughlin "Issue One" politickle gong show they were fawning of this bastard Kerry to the point of gag and vomit!!! It was awful. I don't know how that Tony can stand it. Even PJB was disgusting in his hatred for the Bushes.

However, the point was made that women prefer someone as a leader who does have an attitude of certitude over some vasilating vasilene brained dude who thinks he's some kind of intellectual brain stem, like the un-manly Kerry or Edwards!!! This sure ain't over yet, by a long ways!!!

I think this is a more appropriate picture of Kerry.

Women Key to Kerry's Hopes, Experts Say

Remember, ladies, if you are not worth over $200 million, you would never have been good enough for him.

There are things she doesn't like about President Bush (news - web sites), she says, but the president will get her vote on Nov. 2 because she thinks he'll do a better job of protecting her two daughters.

I actually had an ultra-feminist, liberal acquaintance of mine say this to me that "I guess I'll vote for Bush. You have to be ALIVE to 'control the decisions' you make for your own body, and Bush will keep me alive."

[ladyinred]

Just the other day I saw that women were turning to Bush. The media has their hopes renewed in spite of the horrific things Kerry said in the debate. Illusion is all that matters though. They are all saying he won the debate, and that is all that matters.

Well He'll have a long wait if he thinks this gal is going to vote for him.

"It's just simply this: In order for Kerry to win, he's got to carry women,"

I can picture Kerry carrying his wife in a straight jacket.

I love the faintly disparaging term, "security mom," which seems to imply that there is something trivial in women's desire to think of their children's safety before all else.
