Silly little darlings...
One conclusion that could be drawn from this: The majority of women are IDIOTS.
The women got the vote and the nation got Harding.
Actually, I read an article on this a number of years ago. It can be further granularized. If you remove married women from the list it is wildly liberal. Single women want the government to be their sugar daddy. It’s the welfare state writ large: The state is better than a man because it won’t waste the money on booze, it won’t gamble away the rent check, it won’t sleep around and, let’s face it, living with another adult that doesn’t acquiesce to your every whim is just, well, hard.
Not only is ‘The View’ a hit, it is considered a show analyzing current events.
The demographic overlap between the observation in the thread, and the audience of The View is no coincidence.
Although in gross numbers this is true, what is important in elections is the SHIFT in voters. In 2004, the shift in women voters toward Bush is what gave him his second term (the male vote between the parties remaind virtually unchanged from 2000).
This “women are silly” message is not a good one for conservatives to persue. It will hurt them.
More women are Independents than men. Conservatives will probably never get a majority of women’s votes ... but they can steadily get MORE of them. This is what is important.
Alienating potential voters, no matter how few, is not a smart political move (look how the liberal meme of voters not being smart enough hurt them in 2010).
Plus, there are many solidly conservative women who are turned off by this message.
Keep these statistics in mind:
1. There are more women eligible to vote than there are men eligible to vote.
2. There are more women registered to vote than men.
3. Registered women voters actually vote in larger percentages than male registerd voters. (In 2004, 8.8 MILLION more women voted than men did).
So even small shifts in women’s votes can make a big difference in an election.
You don’t have to have all the women’s votes, you just have to have enough to win.

This is the most sexist, vomit inducing, stereotypical drivel I have ever read. Whatever idiot male wrote this has no knowledge of women whatsoever, outside of an abnormal fantasy life. Most Tea Party members are women, myself included.
Repeal the 19th!!!!
I’m kidding ladies don’t hurt me!!!
