DO WOMEN SEE DEMOCRATS AS LOSING SOME OF THEIR LUSTER???

Well supposedly, if recent polls are anywhere near being correct it would seem to appear that Democrats may be beginning to lose some of their appeal at least for some women and oddly enough it’s global unrest that’s being blamed as part of the reason. In a recent New York Times/CBS News poll, and a Wall Street Journal/NBC News survey, a shift in the traditional edge Democrats have over Republicans among women was noted.

In the Times/CBS News poll, for example, asked the question: "If the 2014 election for United States House of Representatives seats were being held today, would you vote for the Republican candidate or the Democratic candidate in your district?" And in answering women picked Democrats over Republicans by just one point, 43 percent to 42 percent. I would have thought women might have been too busy using their free birth control to answer.

And then it was in the Journal/NBC News survey that when women were asked if they wanted the midterm elections to produce a Democrat - or GOP-led Congress, it was 47 percent of them who chose Democrats while 40 percent said they actually preferred a Republican majority. And this is quite significant when you consider it was just a month earlier that women favored a Democrat controlled Congress by 51-37 percent.

American Thinker reported that, "Perhaps what we are seeing here is the awakening of the under-appreciated 'Wal-Mart mom' Jacksonians." Adding, "But when things seem to be going reasonably well, their Jacksonianism lies dormant, and they can appear to be non-interventionists. It is only when threats pile up and the world begins to seem less safe that Americans reveal their true foreign policy colors."

It also noted that many Americans, including, apparently, many women, favor the use of force abroad to protect U.S. interests. And it was also the American Thinker that reported, "Though Obama’s "war on women" rhetoric has served him well to date, it may be losing its pull among women now concerned about, well, actual wars." One Democrat pollster said as much to the Journal after its survey found the shrinking appeal of the party with women voters.

I don’t know, when it comes to voting, or to selecting for whom to vote, women tend to have a rather strange methodology. And as I have said before, where blacks focus primarily on race, women tend to focus on gender. Because any female candidate, as long as their liberal, is better than any male, or conservative, candidate. But I’m constantly amazed at the ease with which women with children can vote for those who are busy destroying the future of those children.

So I think that’s it’s still way too early to say with any level of confidence that women are beginning to see the light as far as their continued willingness to vote for Democrats is concerned. And for them to continue to do so is proof that they are committed to living in denial and there is no way to convince them of the error of their ways. The are robbing from their children the ability to live the American dream and are instead dooming them to a life of poverty.
