Men in particular - white men - don't like a wimp. Hiding behind women's skirts is NOT guaranteed to win Obama white men's votes, which was the whole point of the Biden pick. No man likes a guy who can't stand up for himself. And without male votes, Obama will lose this election. Women are also turned off by an insecure man.

Agreed.

And on the other side of the issue, what kind of woman candidate most appeals to men? I believe it is the positive, self-assured woman who also clearly conveys compassion and humility. There is something very appealing about a woman who displays leadership ability, including a dependable set of personal values, courage, sincerity, and poise, without attempting to deny her femininity. Without trying to pretend that she is a man. And without being shrill.

I recently read that more men vote Rep, and more women vote Dem.

Zero’s appeal to hillary to save him is an appeal to the women voters she attracts.

The reaction of women to Palin, and to the sexist media bias towards her is crucial.

Women voters will determine this election, imo.
