Bush may have hurt himself with women who have had a couple abortions, or are fighting 2 or 3 STD's.

For the states in play, Bush helped himself.

if a woman were walking down the street with kerry and they were approached by a large menacing stray dog, kerry would push the woman in front of him. After all she makes less than 200K and her Target clothes came cheap, like mine and she could be sacrificed, esp. since she is just fly over country meat, to save him.

If the same thing happened to Bush and a woman HE would step between the woman and the menacing dog to protect her. That is the kind of man women want.

I bring this up because I was used as a dog shield once. A bit of advice: don't look a mad dog in the eyes.
