Still, the larger point is that Hillary is not doing as well among women voters as would have been expected a month ago and Trump is surviving among Republican women better than expected. Since women will provide well over half the vote in 2016, decoding how they make decisions is critical to both sides.
So, what is going on among women voters? What seems clear is that Hillary is trying to appeal to women in an old-fashioned way that doesn't work as well as it once did. Her team apparently thinks that by aggressively selling hard facts, advancing policies or giving her version of the email controversy, Hillary's campaign will have women flocking to her banner.

Clinton's eroding favor with women may also be tied up in their investment in her as standard bearer. Women I talk with of both parties definitely want to be a driving force in electing the first woman to the White House, but they also want the "right" woman -- not a politician who happens to be a woman. A recent Quinnipiac poll showing that 57% of all voters believe that she is not honest and trustworthy, and a Fox poll finding that 58% think she is lying about the emails, should be setting off alarm bells at Clinton headquarters in Brooklyn. .......
As bizarre as it may seem, Hillary Clinton might take a page from his (i.e.,Trump's) book: Many women find it refreshing when they are told a straight story and are left to draw their own conclusions. "Here I am. I have nothing to hide. It's up to you to decide if you like me or not."

Well the first time, it was because Blowprah (who was extremely popular back then) pimped Baraq relentlessly on her show.
The second time, I have no clue.
1. Ugly, women don’t like ugly.
2. Fat, women don’t like fat.
3. Mean, women don’t like mean.
4. Smug, women don’t like smug.
5. Old, women don’t like old.
How about they’re not to bright?
Because she is old and looks old and tired.
She thought Palin’s hairstyle was the secret to popularity ;)
In reality.....she simply isn’t capable of leading this nation for she can’t even handle campaigning....too many appearances show she does not have a handle nor can she handle any pressure....her years and age for her are showing..mentally as well...there’s more going on with her then is known.
And, she's ugly. And, she's a marxist. And, she's a criminal. And, she thinks she's "one of us" and tries to show it in the lamest ways possible.
I think even women are turned off by a candidate who looks and sounds like a fat lesbian.
And she and Jeb seem to have similar advisors. One thinks you reach the people with Chipotle's, the other likes guacamole...
The women I know lean conservative, so not the best sample.
However, every single one will not support Hillary. All would like to see a woman president someday, just not Hillary. They would not vote for Hillary just to see a woman president.
Again, not the best sample, but these women oppose Hillary based on politics. They are judging her as they would judge any male liberal radical Alinskyite running for office.
Ya got smarts and feelings...the group you reference IMO were going on feelings and feeling how nice it would be to help a black man.....I feel that group will sing a different tune at the next opportunity...
I must interact with a diff group of females then you
MSM is apparently in abject shock that not every female citizen votes with her vagina.

Yep. And the media should understand that. After all, men are criticized for thinking with their penises sometimes. I know, different context, but still, we’re not supposed to think based on below the belt feelings.
I’m wearing gloves when i vote.
In 2008, the rush to elect the "first black President" was so great that the vast majority of the voting public did not stop to ask whether BHO was the one everyone would want to remember as the FBP. I think the rush to elect the FWP is not as great: there is a sense in the public that FWP will occur soon enough, perhaps even in 2016, and it doesn't have to be Hillary! who fills the heeled pumps.
Too not to. ;)
Too not to. ;)
Because she has been called on the carpet for the mishandling of the emails.
Omg a word Nazi!!
Just kidding. To and too always give me trouble and I have to stop and think about which is correct.
Got it wrong this time.
