Tell us things are going Romney's way...

Then tell us he won.

"Count the votes? Us? We already knew he was winning..."

I saw a mini-van in a mall parking lot with a "Women for Romney/Ryan" sign in the back window.

Yikes and yuck,,,, and I really really do have good impulse control.

The number of women who support Rmoney should be down since the Biden/Ryan debate. It was crystal clear that night how the GOP feel about women's rights.

10. The O Team Agrees.. "The Obama Campaign Calls Out Gallup’s Deeply Flawed Battleground Women Poll"
Tue Oct 16, 2012, 07:08 PM
Oct 2012
After Gallup released a poll showing Obama and Romney tied at 48% with

battleground state women, the Obama campaign exposed a flaw in Gallup’s likely voter methodology.

The Obama campaign pointed out that Gallup’s likely voter survey was way off in 2010, “Only 2 years ago the distortions in Gallup’s likely voter screen were exposed, leaving Gallup’s survey 9 points off the mark just days before the election. Gallup’s likely voter model predicted a 15 point advantage for Republicans, 55-40, on October 31, 2010. The final result was a 6 point margin, 51-45. That year, Gallup’s registered voter survey was much closer to reality at 48-44.”

the front cover of USA Today smacked me in the face, said that women have catapulted Romney into the lead.

Just about threw up!

bullshit when you see it as did Team Obama!

The "deeply flawed poll" makes for juicy horse race headlines and make those who live in reality, sick.

They have suddenly discovered that a bunch of people think Romney is a viable candidate. They will consider him until they UNDERSTAND HIS TRUE POSITION TOWARDS WOMEN.

It is up to us to make it more than clear what Romney's positions on abortion birth control and other women's issues are. The numbers will come back to us as some of these "naive" voters wake up.

Every woman I know can't stand him. But then again, most women I know are northeastern Democrats.

I just can't believe it's true.
