Does she not have a nanny,butler,gardener,and assistant? I don't know but I bet she does. This will back fire on the romneys.
On another thread, it's been said that the Romneys have five "maids".

Wait until Mormonism goes under the microscope: Sexism in the Mormon Church

I have a colleague who left the Mormon religion because of the sexism as soon as she turned 18.

Also these women will be narrow minded and selfish enough to not care or realized that there are more important issues at hand such as our very basic FREEDOM, the destruction of our CURRENCY by the Federal Reserve and that wars are being fought for frivolous reasons at our expense. These important issues aren't important to these women. Rather they place their social/sex lives above all other issues.
Seeing that Paul has all of 15 delegates (or whatever), I think your claim is just a wee bit, perhaps teensy weensy bit inflated.

Good job.! Continue to repeat the lies of the left. The only war on women is being waged by democrats. They continue to make up stuff and then run with it, hoping something will catch on so you don't have to talk about obama's dismal record... A vote for obama is a vote for the destruction of America...
Women aren't stupid, they see through the lies...

I thought liberals didn't judge people by their religion, color of their skin, sexual orientation, etc. It is appearing this isn't the case.

Not beating a Kennedy in Massachusetts is hardly earth shattering. A Republican winning the governorship there is though.

2) Republicans cannot have it both ways & on one hand say it's the woman's "choice" to work at home, raising her children, and on the other hand enact policies that make that choice close to impossible for working families (i.e., fight against raising minimum wage/union wages for the working spouse, oppose health care reform, not reducing interest rates for student loans, etc.).

3) If Republicans really felt that staying home to raise one's children is so important and that "every life is precious," then they would put their $$ where their mouths are like some of the other industrialized countries and assist low income families who have young children so that can happen. Instead, they expect low income women to "go out and get a job" without any child care assistance and are OK with the abysmally low wages/nonexistent benefits of female-dominated entry-level employment.

It's not the liberals I'm talking about that will judge him this way.

It's the independents.

Niether is Earth-shattering, Romney continued repulbican Governship of Massachusetts, and it spanned back to 1991 and went to 2007, and the Largest ever Margin in a Masschusetts Gublitorial Election was 71-29 won by William Weld, a Republican.
