    Interesting about this current situation on why women vote the way they do. I was working at age 12 etc. worked outside of the home because I was married a few years & then single the rest of the time. All the “goodies” given by the Dems are “someone-elses-hard-earned-money”. End of story. More one parent homes etc. and strangely many people have been taught or just don’t want to think about where the money comes from for their “government goodies” and don‘t give a hoot about who’s money is paying for the goodies. I was shocked that many people (poll-20%) thought the government has its own money(stash) (not the printing) & voids out their working neighbor is helping to pay for the goodies. M Bachmann, S Palin, me and other women are considered “obsolete”. I love freedom from tyranny so guess I’m an ole dinosaur. Guess the 50′s movies about “Amazon Women” ruling is just hollywood nonsense! LOL Government is the daddy and alot of women think that is just great & many men say its ok too. My have times changed..strange country we are living in..glad my mom & dad are not around to see what is happening.

    The only way to win women back is to scare them more than liberals do. Somehow you have to get the real debt to sink in their little scared heads. Each child is born owing 50,000 dollars in debt plus hundreds of thousands more in promised debt. We are going broke giving scared women everything they want. Run on the debt, the debt, THE DEBT.

      Nope a better argument is school choice. The ability to send your child to a better school is the key to the female vote as well as the minority vote. Women and poor vote more Democrat because of handouts like foodstamps. Sell them on school choice and a way OUT of poverty and you will sway these votes.

    Women are guided by their emotions more than men. Liberalism appeals to emotion. Married women are more conservative than single women. Women by their very nature are insecure. Single women are attracted to a government that promises to take care of them. As women gain influence in our society socialism, political correctness and government control grow. This is not a coincidence. As the government takes more and more control over our lives marriage and family are destroyed as more women turn to the government for security. Not a coincidence. Personally I don’t think a nation where women have as much influence as they do in our modern society will long survive. I see our military power shrinking and our debt growing as our country becomes more and more feminized every year. As men are taken out of our families and our schools I see a break down of discipline and respect for others. I don’t think our country can come back from the deterioration that has set in. Our destruction is in our laws and in our courts.

      You’re right. Before welfare there were far fewer divorces because women with children couldn’t get a job back then. It would be better for them and their children to stay with an abusive or cheating husband that you don’t love. The alternative would be you took your beloved children, and in a few months time, the state would take them away from you because you could not afford to feed them.

      Now-a-days, if you can’t afford to feed your child, the government gives you food, and allows you to keep your children.

    As a single woman, I’m shocked at the women around me. The left and liberals have convinced women they are victims. Victims of the big bad men, of the corporate glass ceiling, heck, even a victim of breast cancer (when heart disease is far more dangerous). As well trained victims, so many women have been convinced that they need taking care of and are offended at just about everything. We were stronger when we were just wives and mothers.

      Just wives and mothers? only the most important job there is!!
      Why even have a child if your goal is to pack it off to PRE K and have it indoctrinated by someone or some beurocrat with double think crap until it becomes an OWS dweeb living in your basement on your insurance until 26?
      Women raise your children, home school, or private school, take part in your childs life! The public school system is nothing more than a propaganda and socialist machine to make mindless lock step robots for the system.
      I know, I walk through public schools daily, the endless crap on the walls about civil rights, social justice,health rights, nonsensecail feel good phrases, white oppression, evil crusades, diversity, acceptance,(of every thing NOT Christian), hate speech, word elimination, sesitivity training, back of the bus rememberance, conservetive facist nazi links, democracy is utopia propaganda, alternitive lifestyles and green, green, zero population agenda, global warming, carbon footprints and on and on.
      If you do one thing for your child and your community, GO to their school, look for it, it’s suttle at first, but keep looking, the mesages get louder and clearer, keep going, look at the boards, Fish evolve to bats in a single step! No THEORY or any thing! Carbon is evil, people are distroyers, every one is better than the white male, diversity of thought means denoncing natural laws in favor of humanist or pantheist theories presented as fact.

    It is no mystery that the progressive movement in America, dates from, and was enabled by, Women’s Suffrage. Women value security more than men, and vote for big government solutions under the misconception that it means better security for them.

    As America faces calamity due to $16 Trillion in debt wasted in fruitless pursuit of the progressive agenda driven by both political parties, one can only hope that women and other would-be dependents of big government will begin to realize that rather than security they face chaos. The value of the dollar is half of what it was the day Obama was inaugurated a little over 3 years ago because of the Trillions in worthless scrip printed by the Fed in order to monetize the debt.

    Despite feminine fantasies to the contrary, nothing is free. Our government was created to secure our unalienable rights and has no business being involved in anything beyond that function. The sooner that would be dependents accept that big government is a threat to their security, the sooner we can restore America by restoring Constitutional governance.

    As a conservative single 30 year old man who has had to grind out everything I have ever earned (working FT during my undergraduate and graduate years to survive and pay my dues) I find intelligent women like S.E. Cupp to be amazingly attractive. Keep up the good fight.

    Why do women vote Democrat? It’s simple and as old as Adam & Eve. Women are easily conned, and, like Eve, not satisfied with what they have and want to be given something for nothing.

    This is such sad news on so many levels. Not to preach, but a few comments.
    Women have fought for the right to vote, own property, inherit property, enter into work force, break the glass ceiling, abolish slavery, marry who they wanted, and on and on.
    And they fought for sexual freedom. The emancipated, the liberated woman came of age.

    Boy , how the men loved that, sex without responsibility, especially marriage. Now here 40 years down the road and what do we have. Out of wedlock birth rates escalating, decaying marriages, emasculated men, abortions numbers higher than many nations entire populations. I ask, are we any happier, any better off! For too many not at all. Morally and spiritually, we are bankrupt. We have destroyed our Families and our lives.
    Turning to the government for assistance instead of a husband, or father of the children, or family we women are in danger of slipping back into the age when women were nothing more than chattel, things kept for the owners use with no rights and no possible freedom. The Big government has become our “Owner.”

    Women have also long fought for equal pay for equal work. Still most women cannot earn enough to support a small family. Like the battles mentioned before, women had courage. It takes courage to stand up against oppression in any form. I guess many women have surrendered, turning to government “help”. BIG GOVERNMENT is the OPPRESSOR. We all will have to fight against the oppression someday,

    The liberal Democratic View fits in well with Feminism which is: Obtaining additional rights and protections under the law with no responsibility and the overall agenda of Feminism which is Misandry.. The ultimate goal to attain the Disposable Male in our society.. Big government to take the place of fathers in the family through entitlements, family law in the courts through bigger government.. Most woman whether they realize it or not are Feminist and hold Feminist views. It’s been conditioned into our Western Society through the media, schools work place and church’s in the form of Political Correctness.. Promoting a myth of female oppression and the mantra of fairness and equality.. It’s one big lie and the liberal progressives have cashed in on it.. So if your scratching your head wondering why things are the way they are and why Obama types get these votes and get elected start here.. Hope to hear more on this, it’s a disease at the root in America and never talked about…

    It is not the number of children, it is the unzipped, uplifted skirts who are causing the poverty and deaths of children. People are allowing their vices and sins to murder unwanted children. It is not a condom issue, it is the wages of sin, the deaths and poverty that is the result. It is putting children at risk and torment because two people are not mature enough to stay away from premartial sex. If you burn for sex, get married and take the responsibility that goes with it. People are selfish and do not want to acknowlege the wisdom of God in their thinking because it would not mix with what their lusts are in their hearts. Too bad, but people could have listened and now are spouting not enough condoms to justify their sins against their own flesh. Most of them are drunk or drugged and will not put on a condom. These people take risks that result in unwanted children, as well as the deaths and povery of these children. These consequences are not in the least a thought in the minds of these selfish people.

    Great discussion. I think this will open some eyes and help solve the problem or at least bring it forth on a basis for civil discussion.

I have no problem with athiests agnostics or whatever I am missing on this list. do I pray for them..yes do I preach to them etc. no but I sure expect the same from them in return. that is the problem I have with militant athiests the ones trying to belittle harrass intimidate sue whine complain etc and the lack of respect for others deeply held beliefs. they leave me and alone I leave them alone as a mutual respect. I am sure many others feel as I do.

    Government as mega-mother: nurturing, takes care of everything, doesn’t let its children grow up, won’t let them untie those apron strings… Sounds like that new reality show about the Brooklyn Boys who still live at home because their mothers take care of them.
