Why Suburban Women Cost the Republicans the House

Did suburban women cost the Republicans the House of Representatives?

Most suburban women can be easily persuaded to vote for Democrats because they do not think seriously. Serious thinking in the political sense is concerned with where we are going as a nation, our moral values, our long-term prosperity, our security, our freedom and its inherent responsibilities. G.K. Chesterton said, “Thinking means connecting things, and stops if they cannot be connected” (Orthodoxy, 1908).

Don’t get me wrong – there are many intelligent, serious conservative women in Fairfax County (not to mention the nation as a whole), but they are sadly in the minority. From my limited and unscientific perspective, the reason most suburban women voted for Democrats can be divided into three categories:

  1. They don’t have to think seriously.
  2. They have never been taught to think seriously.
  3. They really don’t want to think seriously.

They Don’t Have to Think Seriously

Then your rationale seems rather inconsistent. Presumably you don’t want women to vote because you don’t like how they vote. Yet, blacks vote even more that way, by far.

I listened to radio at 8:00 pm ET Tuesday night. Headlines were limited to the election and exit polling. Among the topics were “Women voted in highest numbers in any U.S. election,” “Women being elected...” and another said “(a high number according to an exit poll) thought sexual harassment was a major crisis in our country.” Granted it is liberal radio. But do women follow issues such as illegal immigration, the economy, etc.? If so, they should be embarrassed how the headlines portrayed them as egotistical and selfish victims. Of course, many, mostly liberals, would be proud of that. It may be time we require women to register for Selective Service as we do males.

male left-brain dominant gives the ability to make HARD LOGICAL decisions (y chromosome feature?)

womens proclivity is to be fooled/believe any contrived doubt raising lie which the leftist cleverly aim at them

The anti-suffrage movement was founded by women.

there are many women true believers who vote with Jesus, but large % vote with Satan...

Quite the topic...

When my dad told me this back in the early 1940s I didn’t know what he meant. Back then no one would or could drag a man over the coals for an opinion like that.

Now that the 19th Amendment has almost totally destroyed our nation no one dares question the “wisdom” of letting female activists set the agenda and win.

Like Mark Twain said, “Every year the Old Man gets smarter and smarter.”

>Or maybe it was vote fraud that flipped the house.<

That too. But if the story is accurate, it seems that the two Florida counties with the most corrupt people in charge of voting fraud look like women to me.

"They don’t have to think seriously. They have never been taught to think seriously. They really don’t want to think seriously."

and men think about their peckers....all the time....

frankly pretty tired of women being blamed for everything and now freepers don't want us to vote even though we make up probably well over half of freepers and probably over half the donations....

but take our vote away with one condition...no male can vote if he uses cialis, viagra, a penile pump or generally is sexully impotent...

that'll greatly diminish the male vote right there...

707 comments over there! I read some of the top comments. There are a lot parallels in this thread. I wasn’t on FR 20 years ago, so you are best to judge in that regard. Thanks.

There is a major discrepancy the liberals take advantage of and incentivize.

Most single and divorced women vote liberal. Most married women vote conservative.

That’s one more reason they break up the family and prevent family formation.

I’m thinking this article is about as good an example of the hammer hitting the nail on the head. We all know of the areas the author speaks of. I can take you to about 6, right off the top of my head, in and around Atlanta. The most prominent ones that comes to mind is Virginia Highlands and Morningside. Even though those areas are inside the city limits, you wouldn’t think you were in the city if you were walking around in them. Lots of mom’s, in yoga pants, doing lunges up and down the sidewalks with their $100+/hr personal trainer, pushing $1000+ baby strollers.

They live in an insulated bubble, where they support all the right policies, but are never exposed to the consequences of them.

Let start a GoFundMe account to buy up a house and condos in these neighborhoods and resettle some of the folks from the migrant caravan invasion and maybe a few Syrian refugees, yearning to be free. Lets see how that works out.

Tax reform should be a sufficient reason to vote for the GOP.

The fight against Illegalism should be sufficient reason to vote for the GOP.

Kavanaugh’s hearings should be sufficient reason to vote for the GOP.

Blacks and single women will destroy this nation.

There is NO reason to vote for the Demons.
