Gender Gap in 2012 Presidential Election is the largest in history

[thrasher]

Another interesting statistic of the 2012 presidential election is that President Barack Obama won among female voters by 12 points, 56% to 44%, over Romney, while Romney won among men by eight points, 54% to 46%. The resulting 20-point gender gap is the largest for this metric measured in a presidential election since Gallup began compiling the vote by subgroups in 1952.

When is the GOP going to void themselves of their draconian ideas and flip-flop on their war on women? When will they realize that they're now in the 21st century and should not demean women by demanding of them what they should or should not do with their bodies?

Better you should ask the women in your life (seriously) and listen to what they say.

And Romney tells them what to think and what they need to do with their bodies (seriously).

Republicans don't support equal pay for women either.

Apparently neither does Obama. Have you seen the pay disparity within his own White House staff? Anita Dunn has said it could be considered a hostile workplace for women.

What does he tell them? That they can't use tampons?

They may have voted for Romney despite the "war on women". I'm only asking you to listen to what these Romney voting women are saying they don't like about the way women are being treated by the Republican party.

Still, I get nothing more than a slogan. What is the War on Women?

It doesn't matter what I think about the war on women, since I am not part of the sampling of which the statistic in the original post was derived. Why don't you ask women who voted for President Obama what they think the GOP's war on women is about? They would be part of the sampling noted above. Or,... you could just google it.

Women don't like men denigrating their views with snide comments like "Free tampons for all!!".

When I read RGRider's comments I instantly thought that he must be a guy with limited if any experience with women. Either that or he sleeps on the basement couch a lot.
