THE DEMOCRATS' SECRET WEAPON IN 2014? |
And as we know single women also very reliably vote Democrat in House contests. And in last year's tight Virginia governor's race, Terry McAuliffe benefited by carrying single female voters by 42 points by doing not much more than to promise unlimited access to all manner of birth control, including abortion. Now since single women tend not to turn out, especially in non-presidential election years, they must therefore be properly enticed to do so.
So the Democrats' message will be that the Republicans are on the wrong side of such issues as the minimum wage, college tuition aid, and especially abortion and birth control. In other words, to be in favor of people exhibiting a little self-control and a little personal responsibility is, these day, to be described as being on the wrong side of any issue that calls for one to behave in a responsible manner that can safely be described as being an adult.
Back in May Democrat pollster Stan Greenberg and party strategist James ‘The Nut Job’Carville called on Democrats "to make major targeted efforts aimed at unmarried women." In a voter-mobilization program termed Rosie, for Re-engaging Our Sisters in Elections, the Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee has been using the latest technology to find Democrat-leaning women that can be brought to the polls in 2014.
Democrats have already been busy in North Carolina. It’s there that Democrats say incumbent senator Kay Hagan's GOP opponent, state House Speaker Thom Tillis, supports tax cuts, favors spending less on education and unemployment benefits, and opposes abortion. He is also said to be against expanding Medicaid coverage. All are issues that Democrats believe speak to single and supposedly economically oppressed women.
"I have never been especially political," said Jenny Spencer, 26, a single lab worker who was attending a demonstration in Raleigh outside the Republican-controlled state legislature. "But in the last year or so I think it's become increasingly important in North Carolina not just to have your own views but to really make a point of advocating them." So what is it that we have here, perhaps another perpetually horny female? Just sayin’.
Look, until those who make up this particular, and rather peculiar, demographic choose to grow up a little I seriously doubt whether anyone will be able to convince very many of them that it’s the Republican Party who’s on the right side of those issues that are the most important. As long as they insist upon using that which is between their legs to determine for whom to vote, they will continue to be reliable Democrat voters.
