Any woman who values the life of her family wants Bush at the helm at least until this terrorist threat is over. It's going to take at least 5 more years of constant danger before anyone in this country can even THINK about someone other than Bush.
I think you are right. I know a number of female, black, Democrat voters who live in the DC area. They have not forgotten 9/11. They are very happy Bush has been a 'cowboy' and are all planning to vote for Bush, even tho it is killing them to think they will vote Republican.
One of my sisters teaches in a DC school. When they had to get their 3 day kit together to leave at the school (school children had to do the same), that was it for her. Party loyalty be damned; she feels she has to vote for Bush.
