gallup: last presidential election had the highest recorded gender gap

Women were treated as a special interest group.

Like infants they agreed to everything their mommy state told them.

"War on women".... of course, no critical thinking required, there MUST be a war on women.

This is where political correctness is the most powerful weapon of the left. The right is in catharsis on what to do. They cannot rebuttal anything pertaining to women or minorities. If they do, the left brandishes them sexist and racists. All thought stops... the right just tries to mumble some ill-witted retort and resigns to being unable to denounce any accusations against them.

(most) Single women want the giant alpha male, government, to take care of them. Obama (and Biden even more so) is a huge misandrist that does nothing but promote feminized memes (hell, he chided men during a farking father's day speech!!). "Daddy Obama gonna take care of me know matter how stupid, selfish, or irresponsible I am."

before feminists try to give abortion as the reason for the gap, here are some relevant articles:

according to exit poll data, 59% of those who voted said abortion should be legal in most or all cases compared to 36% who say it should be illegal in most or all cases: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2012-exit-poll

however, men and women are equally divided on the issue of abortion: http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/314640/abortion-and-gender-gap-numbers-ramesh-ponnuru

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/08/24/women-wont-leave-gop-over-abortion/

a better explanation could be the welfare state:

the economist: gender gap is due to views on the welfare state. http://www.economist.com/blogs/democracyinamerica/2012/10/campaign-and-gender-gap
the atlantic: ethnicity and race divide the electoral more than gender (white women overwhelmingly went for romney; likewise, black and hispanic men went for obama): http://www.theatlantic.com/sexes/archive/2012/11/women-are-not-a-unified-voting-bloc/265007/
single women have become one of the biggest voting blocs (23% of the voting electorate in 2012): http://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2012/11/10/face-of-us-changing-elections-to-look-different
rate of single mother families has been increasing:

~40% of children are born to unmarried women: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr61/nvsr61_05.pdf

50%+ of hispanic children and 70%+ of black children are born to single mothers: http://www.childtrendsdatabank.org/?q=node/196

republicans have a favorable gap with married couples (both married men and women): http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2012-exit-poll
marriage is the greatest weapon against poverty: http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2012/09/marriage-americas-greatest-weapon-against-child-poverty
marriage rates have significantly declined, especially for blacks and hispanics: http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2011/12/14/barely-half-of-u-s-adults-are-married-a-record-low/

my theory: hispanic and black women propelled obama to victory due to their economic background. women want security. if they can't get it from their (lack of) partners, they'll look elsewhere (the government). thus, even if the republicans decided to drop the abortion issue, they would still lose the single women vote due to their views capitalism and the welfare state. republicans might not ever close the single woman gap, thus they'll have to make it less significant by promoting marriage.

1) the republican party must focus on men's rights issues more, especially when it comes to marriage. marriage is much less beneficial to men now than it was decades ago, due to feminist laws and influence. marriage is becoming less desirable due to high divorce rates, and subsequently: the consequences of divorce. there needs to be research done on why single men picked obama over romney (56%-40); the single men were easily trumped by married men, however (implying there are much more single women voters than single men voters).

2) the party must also start a fight against unnecessary drug regulations that put black/other minority men in jail, causing their families to break up and damaging their future economic prospects.

3) they must fight back against affirmative action that have propelled minority women over minority men. getting rid of affirmative action in its entirety is ideal, but removing the basis of gender is a good start that can help minority men.

4) letting the democrat party paint your image as full of racists does not help either; the republican national party must actively recruit minorities who share their views to run for office.

Who wants to bet this be yet another gender gap that feminists will ignore because its in their favor?

ITT: Batshit crazy religious nutjob indoctrinated Republicans cry because women wouldn't vote for a batshit crazy religious nutjob woman hater.

If you guys want to screw up USA (and the rest of the world) so bad, maybe you should tell your next candidate not to alienate half of the country?
