Now that women are getting a good look at the paternalistic ‘War on Women’ Republican plans for them should the GOP get a majority in Congress and the presidency in 2012, I think there will be a blowback against the sexually-repressed paleo-conservative Christopublicans of such dimension it will make the term ‘landslide’ a tepid understatement. There were 70.4 million women voters in 2008; this time around, I think there will be 75 or even 80 million women with the vast majority voting against the knuckle-dragging GOP.
“The 2008 election also suggested that the gender gap will continue to be politically important. About 66% of women voted compared with 62% of men. Neither was statistically different from 2004, but 10 million more women said they voted than did men in 2008—70.4 million women compared with 60.7 million men [131.1 million total].”
