Being seen as “anti-women’s choice” will cost the Conservatives similarly.

Perhaps in this case, ‘conservatives’ should have been replaced with ‘Republicans’ but yes - 70% or slightly more of single women voted for Obama. Mark Levin referenced it as did Rush.

Do a search for the whole rape kit story fiasco, or the banning of birth control fiasco. Both false stories gained a whole lot of speed because MoveOn - as well as others, I’m sure - started emails and took over forum postings. The women I work with knew nothing of wealth redistribution, but they knew ‘all about’ Sarah Palin ‘not wanting to pay for rape kits’ and ‘not allowing her daughter to use birth control’. Worst of all, they really did believe that George Bush - who has two daughters of his own - would allow birth control to be outlawed and that McCain and Palin would uphold the law.

The Obama campaign is masterful at using the power of collective emotion. The last minute ads in Ohio focused on womens’ rights; they were powerful, they were highly inaccurate, and we were unable to fight back. It made an impact.

Flame away.

Those women are largely unreachable. 2 full decades of woman have been indoctrinated from first grade on that abortion is about the same as the right to vote. They are also firmly committed to behaviors and attitudes that are virulently anti traditional marriage and family.

In Obama, they mostly vote for the husband they wish for, and will mostly never have. That, or the guy they would most like to “hook up” with,,,its as simple as that.

My daughter is an exception,, and i know many of you have good christian daughters too, but we must face,,, this generation of young women is mostly the solid property of MTV “real world”, hip-hop, vagina day at school, and girls-gone-wild. Its sad. And no republican position on abortion would attract them. They still would vote for who they can most imagine being in bed with.
