Hmmmmm, let's see. Would I rather vote for a candidate who wants to DICTATE what I can or cannot do with my body, and thinks I'm a bad mother if I have a career & life outside of the kitchen... or one who supports a woman's right to CHOOSE for herself on these issues? Tough choice, I know.

Better not go there.

My next door neighbor, a Republican and SAHM, has a husband who provides for her and her children. Her husband, who is employed by a major oil company, also gave her an STD while she was pregnant. They have not had sex since then.

The kid is now 15.

You forgot one... women who are none of the above, but have no other viable options. That would be me, an independent-thinking woman who's trapped by a two-party system.

So if my only options are as I described in my last post, Democrat is really the lesser of evils!

yes liberal women dont espouse the lovely tried and true family values of the GOP :

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, is probably the most audacious serial adulterer in any political party.
8. Former Rep. Bob Barr’s notoriety as an adulterer was one of many ironies around the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DoMA) which he wrote, and which was passed with the leadership of fellow adulterers Sen. Majority Leader Bob Dole and House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
9. Rep. Henry Hyde, who served as chairman of House Mangers in the adultery-related impeachment of President Clinton, was a home-wrecker himself. Hyde had an affair when he was a young and foolish man of 41 while he and his girlfriend were both very much married. Her husband later said Hyde broke up his family.
10. Gary Bauer, professional moralizing Christian nationalist, experienced a mutiny when he was running for president when actual Christians on the staff of his 2000 presidential campaign quit in protest over Bauer’s “inappropriate” behavior with a 26-year-old deputy campaign manager. Euww.

They probably vote Democrat because they think all Republican men are like you. Thank goodness they are not.

Many of them are feminist and pro-abortion.
Pro-abortion or pro-choice?
Yes, words do matter.

They are both equally evil.... there is no lesser.... I wish more people would get tired of the BS and vote with their hearts and on their principles

I never settle for less personally, even though I know the person I vote for will never win

As long as the one party system (it calls itself the 2 party system) is allowed to fester, they will

Since I live in California, my vote doesn't really matter anyway... so I might do just that in the next election, if I can find a candidate who I actually like.

You just made a frikkin awesome reason to vote Republican. Better a rich gold digger than on welfare, at least to someone with common sense, (cancels out #1) <<smirk>>

No sense in voting while in Cali unless you are invested in welfare checks and unfunded liabilities. It's so bad that a vengence minded Moonbeam is Gov again, and that says everything about the state of our state.

They're used to the biases and the corruption that plagues the government and society.
