Many single women, a key bloc, are avoiding GOP

DENVER (AP) — Sara Stevenson spends her working hours surrounded by Republicans, namely the married men who work alongside her in a Denver oil and gas firm company. But after hours and on weekends, she usually spends her time with other single women, and there's not a Republican in sight among the bunch.

"There was just no way I could have supported any Republican this year," said Stevenson, 31. "They skew so much to the religious right. ... They focused so much on taxes. It's not something that women in my demographic really care about. I've never heard my friends lament their taxes."

When we had an American culture, drafting for the military was nasty with the trash brought in.

I knew I was a republican, even before I “knew it”. I only surround myself with like minded people. Within the past few years, I have cut out ALL libs from my life because I blame them for our demise.

Same here. I've had friendships for 40 years (I'm 46) just break up over this elections. I knew one guy since I was 6 in pre-first grade, because he was an OBummer kool-aid drinker and we got into it, we've unfriended each other.

Back in the 90s, I dated a liberal from a small town in Indiana. Very pretty but very unstable and her political opinions were just one facet of a duplicitous individual. Every issue was a competition. Stay away. I am thrilled to have found a conservative babe who makes my life richer and sunnier.

Agreed, plus life is too short to play those games.

If Sarah would have run against Obama as the nominee she would have won. Millions of conservatives stayed home instead of voting for Romney. Palin would have driven conservative voter turnout through the roof higher than ever imo and not depressed it as Romney did. And some women who voted for Obama wouldn’t have. Not a doubt in my mind Sarah would have won if she had run.

I just wish there was a way for us like minded people to get together.

I believe he was the strongest candidate we had remaining following Palin’s refusal to run, but it doomed us, because the single women were strongly opposed, and even some Catholics were opposed.

I think Romney would have had a fighting chance if he came out swinging on Bengazi.

One game my wife and I play when we watch movies from the 30s to the 70s is called “guess the age of the actor”. We are astonished at how a person we peg as being 36 is actually 20 or a person that is 22 is actually 14. Their speech, mannerisms and decorum is so mature compared to people in there late 30s to mid 40s today it will depress you about the future of this country even more when these guys will have to take over.

come on you are kidding right. you actually think Sarah Palin would not have had untold millions more voters than a rich white male liberal mormon , named Romney? She would have beat Obama . bank on it. the media wanted Romney to run against cause of that , that he was a white male, better that he was rich , better that we was a liberal running in the GOP , better that he was a mormon, perfect candidate to beat in the election so the media knocked out cain etc.

If Republicans refuse to talk to women about the safety of economic independence, individual rights, self empowerment and the family social construct, versus the risk of being at the mercy of an amoral socialist machine that is fatherless and that hates the natue of women and men and marriage, they will not win.

You have a good point there. We need to stress responsibility too instead of the mantra, "Uncle Sugar will take care om or it."

Black women will always suck up this liberal death. The statistics of the Black race prove the outcome and should be discussed. But we stand a chance in awakening Asians, whites and hispanics to the power and goodness of the American soul. No one came here to be enslaved to an limo liberal elitist class who view them as animals and slaves their environmental zoo. The poverty and elitist oppression of socialism is not American and will not produce a future that anyone would come here to experience.

'Fraid so, I think except for a few who get it, the Blacks are a lost cause right now and I think the same of most Hispanics with the exception of the Cubans. Still we need to somehow seek the rest out without pandering to them.

My impression has been that Thais do not travel well. Beautiful and very comforting in their homeland they find the land of the Big BX to be too demanding and even today expects too much independent judgment. Hong Kong or Taiwanese Chinese seem a much better bet. Chinese women are pragmatists by nature and settle in to make a home whether it is in Boca Raton or Fairbanks. They have been programmed to adhere to the Confucian premise that family harmony be paramount and the woman is to be the focus of that harmonizing effect. Taiwanese bar girls frequently have more sensible attitudes towards life and family than do US female graduates of ‘good ‘ colleges.

If there’s anything to blame for the ladyparts voters, it’s as much the advent of reliable methods of birth control. There won’t be any going back from that. As Loretta Lynn wrote and sang some years’ back:

I've given thought of writing time travel science fiction story about sending a team back with a mission to make guy who who invented The Pill "assume room temperature" and end up rooming with Jimmy Hoffa.

I don’t disagree with you there. That’s one reason why I don’t date women under 30 . My current lady is a bit “older” than me (34) but I’m not complaining at all. There is a lot less drama.

In the last election, if we did not have shallow pin heads for “consultants and advisors” we would have warned Hispanics not to get close to the Black welfare culture. The stats are a killing field of suffering and death. Hispanics did not come here for Marxist poverty and oppression.

There is a way to really put people like this women in a tight spot but it requires being very calm. I have done this and it does work. A little Socratic discourse does such types in:

Q. Why do you think Sarah Palin merits being called a C*** when you find the word detestable?

Q. Tell me three things she has done that you think are bad?

Q. Can you tell me three positions she has taken on topics of national political importance?

Generally people like this libtard female will start spluttering and in the case of one (admittedly a really ignorant and vulgar man) some will tell you immediately to F off. But you do make your point that these people are just hate filled ignoramuses.

Men, as a rule, know a lady from a slut, remember that women control access to their to their lady parts.

If you want a man to respect you act like a lady and remember the aspirin rule. Remember you control the dating game, men don't care how smart you are they judge you on how loving and supportive you may be as a mate.

This sounds like my wife's family, low performing, low education levels, make a series of bad life choices with men and expect the government to support one, low information (my parents just called them ignorant Democrats) , members of the culture of low and/or no expectations. In many ways extending the franchise to women was not at all a good idea. It has become the Shirt of Nessus poisoning our society and our nation.

I think you’re right, it will take a collapse for them to learn conservative/libertarian values.
