"No, you go away....."

Several years ago, I told a somewhat conservative woman at work that the 19th Amendment was a huge cause of our troubles, including Clinton.

She was, expectedly, apoplectic.

About four years later, after her husband and I had schooled her, she admitted it was so.

She had a web site for 2nd Amendment Sisters, and openly admitted her conversion about the 19th.

I was quite proud of myself, but more importantly, proud and happy for her,

As I said in my previous post, though I’ve very frustrated by the masses of auto-pilot “feel good rhetoric” female voters ( that the left harvests), there are also very essential and powerful female forces thinking the ‘right’ way today.

Palin, Noem, Angle.

We can’t arbitrarily erase half of humanity. It’s absurb....there are lots of dumb males too.

My point in asking men to step up, is to acknowledge that men are far more immune to the emotional manipulation and tend to think in starker contrasts of cause and effect—so they that MUST lead, but that also includes being strong moral examples.

We need to awaken the women that go along with the leftist view, but this requires the leverage of stable societal models too (cohesive families, committed r/ships) so the nonthinking types don’t automatically turn to a nanny state solution.

i think a better ‘slicing’ of voter viability might be property ownership. That seems to be a great equalizer and perspective-creator.

I think owning property suddenly brings to mind pretty much everything that is at stake....a skin-in-the-game point of view.

The Catholic vote was always democrat, the female vote was usually republican, generally more than the male (including for Nixon, in 1960) until the mid 1960s, even since then, the white female vote is more republican than even the white Catholic vote.
