So here are the approximate spreads: Blacks: 90/5 Obama Hispanics: 70/30 Obama Women 55/40 Obama under 30 55/40? liberals 90/5 All Romney has are old white men and they are dying off fast. Not much of a future for Republican's.

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.

"That is not what the women think." I don'y know any woman who thinks there is a war on women, they all think it's propaganda by the dems. but if women do then see it is just propaganda and it's working on women "Do you really think in this modern age women are going to let men dictate to them about their reporductive rights? " who's doing that ? "but pass laws for personhood which could outlaw contraception." got a link "And Romney has vowed to get rid of planned parenthood which millions of women depend on" geez you are filled with propaganda, how is romney gonna get rid of plan parenthood, it's a private organization. Now I know dems are trying to get rid of private organizations like Gibson Guitar and Chick Fil _ but democrats are nazis and repubs aren't "The Republcian house held a conference on womens health issues and did not invite one woman. They are pissed about that." no they aren't a handful of wacko lib women maybe but they would vote for Obama even if he was caught impaling little babies on the WH lawn
