If you said what you did with tongue in cheek, I'll laugh with you. If you really think the mothers of unwed pregnant girls are "tramps", I won't be laughing.

And, believe me, I do love humor. Sometimes it's difficult to tell when a person is serious when there are only typed words to read and you can't see their face.

If Janet Napolitano in our AZ Gov race pulls it out it will be exactly why Salmon lost.

Nationwide, there are 9 million more women than men registered to vote; ..... past studies have shown that women were more likely to go to the polls

Seems like pretty simple math to me. We're dealing with an enormous voting group, larger than any other category of voters. There's no way around it; gotta attract more women voters.

In my state we just elected a GOP woman governor. So, I'm not convinced women are voting in as great of a Dem block as aserted in this article.

White women already vote republican. The easiest, fastest way to increase the "overall" number of women to vote republican, is to get more black females to vote republican, an even split among black females, and the overlall majority of women will be republican . Pretty simple really. You have to reduce the 10-1 democrat-repubican black female vote, to 50-50.

If you dont want to get the black female vote, then its going to be tough all over, and the immigrants will have the deciding votes.

I think women are much more worried about keeping their own children safe - they look at their two year old and remember how threatened they felt by the sniper or how the Islamo-terrorists deliberately target children.

Too darned many women are waiting for the likes of slick willie to protect them. We get educated but we don't seem to have a lick of common sense when it comes to voting.

Do women really look out the kitchen window and worry about the pregnant girl next door getting health care? No, we look out the kitchen window at the pregnant girl next door and say to ourselves, "well, she must be a little tramp like her mother."

And the next logical thought would be that if the gun grabbers hadn't taken their gun, there could have been a shotgun wedding for the pregnant tramp!

Try 80-20. Seems miniscule, but when totalled, it's actually huge.
