Democrats, so many forget, have not won a majority of white women since 1964.

I did not know this.

I didn't either, and frankly it surprises me. But that's what I should expect from the MSM.

White women want security, and they want to be left alone to manage their families as they see fit.

I've been trying to tell FReepers this for years. Among married women, the gap is even larger. Keep in mind that with just the black vote, the Democrats start off with a huge lead among single women, nearly six points. I believe National Review did a study in 2005 that showed that if the Republican Party had held as many black voters as Dwight Eisenhower got in 1956 -- a mere 30% -- John Kerry would have carried just one state: Massachusettes.

Even in a year when Indies supposedly abandoned the Republicans, the truth is that Barack 0bama did not get a majority of white voters. Yet we don't ever hear about how the Democrats have to appeal to more whites. The gender gap you never hear about is among white males. Democrats have a very serious problem in that demographic. But you aren't going to ever hear analysts reflect on how white males have bailed on the Party.
