I agree. Romney is some 22 points behind Obama on the empathy issue and may explain why he has a whopping lead among single white women.
Single women always favor Dems for some reason, that is not a surprise.
I don’t care who the Republican is, they will never win among single women, it just won’t happen.
They need to learn to speak “woman”: Your washing machine (the economy, the country) has broken down. The very charming repairman has been tinkering with it for FOUR years while you use the laundromat, week after week. He has sipped wine at your table, tossed a ball around with your kids, smiled a lot. However, you should see by now that he knows nothing about fixing the washing machine. Now you have this OTHER repairman who is all business and has a lot of experience fixing (successfully) washing machines. Maybe you don’t want to sit and play cards with him. Good, neither does he, because he is all about fixing things and making your life get back to normal. Bottom line: you are hiring a technician, you are an employer, you are not looking for a boyfriend here. Remember how effective the anti Hillary healthcare ad was with Louise? Women often respond well to miniature soap opera presentations.

But that doesn’t mean they’ll vote for Obama.
Someone said, maybe Levin yesterday, that this is not a race between two individuals but between two ways of running the country. Hopefully citizens will see that our Socialism experiment now under way is not working and must be abandoned.
