why, because a court decision said a private company could not be forced to supply all brands of BC? I think many do not understand, it isn't birth control that was voted down, it is certain types.

As for the R versus the D in November, even Elenor Clift, on McLaughlin said the other day, she expects the Rs to gain seats in the congress or they could and they may very well win the Senate, though she thinks that could go either way. When a lib says this, you have to listen. No one knows at this point how it will go in November, but the war on women isn't going to hurt the Republicans. It is a drummed up issue that libs would love to turn into a true war.

No question the GOP will gain seats; it's just a question if they will take control of the Senate and win enough seats to keep control in 2016 when it's their turn to be on the defensive by defending more seats.

67-31 single women Obama over Romney tells me the "war on women" affects POTUS race. The House is gerry-mandered beyond belief, so it can't affect that. But it would be wise to reflect on the 2012 single women vote every POTUS race.

The senate is very much up in the air. I agree, those close races seem to change every few weeks and still remain close.

But the % of married women who supported Romney was very different. In case you and your biased opinions do not realize, women come in 2 groups: married and single. Both count the same.

And there is something called factual and media induced!!! W on W is media induced.

I know married women supported Romney. They always support the GOP, but the single women gap has widened in the last few years the other way(social conservatism took a backseat to fiscal conservs pre TP). Now with married women voting patterns stagnant, but single women widening the gap towards the Dems, that is trouble for the GOP.

I guess some people haven't noticed yet that all the "Obamacare horror stories" have pretty much died off. Actually, most of the horror stories are coming from states that refused the Medicaid expansion.

Maybe died off in the front page news because they are not news anymore. There are most pressing issues at this very moment; and the way the administration is going, next week or next year there will even be more new concerns. Just because the front page or the headlines on blogs are not covering it, doesn't mean the American people have not been hurt or will not remember when they go to the polls!!!
