Look at the lead Obama has over Romney with women 15 to 30 point spread depending on the poll! More like 7 percent. "One of those times came last month, when Obama held a seven-point advantage. That lead was fueled in part by a 19-point advantage among women, the largest across the set of polls. In the new survey, 51 percent of female voters support Obama and 44 percent Romney, almost precisely the average divide since April 2011." washingtonpost.com link found at commentarymagazine.com or maybe 10 " According to an NBC analysis of the poll, Obama leads Romney by a whopping 10 points among female voters" businessinsider.com But lets say it was 30 percent. Lets even imagine it was 50 percent. That would be evidence for "women strongly prefer Obama to Romney", but it wouldn't be evidence for "the GOP is waging war on women", any more than Romney's lead among men indicates that the Democrats are waging war one men. Your argument doesn't get you anywhere near your conclusion, in simple terms it doesn't hold water.
