The underlying assumption of the OP's assertion is that women are gullible or stupid. They are neither. They weren't sold a bill of goods by the MSM, or by anyone else. Women looked at both campaigns, and carefully evaluated the policies, stances, and values of the campaigns, and chose which one they favored. Women didn't necessarily only consider women's issues. I, personally, evaluated numerous issues, and particularly economic ones. While Romney was touted as a successful businessman, his experience didn't seem to me to involve job creation. In fact, it seemed to involve profitability by any means, and I didn't like some of those means. I also had to consider his political executive experience as governor of Massachusetts. I was born in Massachusetts and still have many friends and family there. There evaluations of Romney as governor certainly gave me pause. When I looked at the number of vetoes he executed, that gave me pause, too. I was disturbed that he chose Ryan as a running mate, because he had leaned so right during the primaries, I had expected him to choose someone more moderate to pull him more to the center for the actual race. When he took the trip overseas to cement his foreign policy credentials, the repeated flubs didn't speak well for him. I know many, many women, who did vote for Romney, because they carefully evaluated the candidates and that's who they chose. They and I recognize that the choice is an individual's, and each person brings their own set of knowledge, experience, and priorities to the decision. Respecting that process is fundamental. And when you dismiss a huge segment of the population's decision-making skills, you simply aren't showing much respect for them.
Haha His flubs overseas? You got duped by the MSM on that too!
I plan on adding pgh to the ignore list, along with a few other far-right posters after this week...I just wanted to enjoy a week of bragging before I did that.
That's an open minded democrat for you. Just keep watching MSNBC too so you get the true facts on issues. haha
You know, one week ago, my daughter was visiting, and one of these insipid Romney commercials came on. If you live in a swing state, you've seen this one. Some woman is at a computer, and says she checked Mitt Romney's positions (maybe on The Blaze, I dunno) and lo and behold she found out he's not opposed to BC, abortion in all cases, etc. My daughter said "I'm so sick of them thinking we all are getting an abortion every two months!"

I'll give you points for nerve. Criticizing MSNBC after the Fox/Rove debacle on election night. Not to mention the countless Fox news shows where they simply refused to believe all the polls showing Obama was going to win. I think you're the one who was duped, honey.

It seems one of us got duped, and of course neither of us wants to believe that it was "me". Only I have many, many sources that covered those "flubs" that you don't believe happened. Even the conservative newspapers in England were poking fun at Governor Romney. Which might have contributed to the fact that the English people also favored Obama over Romney in the polls taken abroad.
States granting "personhoold" status to fetuses doesnt outlaw abortion It simply changes the date at which its not allowed.
If the "people" spoke to ensure Romney wouldnt have the opportunity to overturn Roe V Wade, and the states, according to you are doing so, then you admit the vote against Romney for that reason is stupid.
You are now arguing against yourself because 1 minute the states are doing it, the next, people oppose Romney because they want to stop something you just said is happening.
I suppose you missed when they were trying to re-define when a fetus becomes a person huh ? If they would've gotten it through you can bet the republicans would've pounced on that and made it that much closer to Banning Abortion.
The Rove debacle continues. Yesterday he was blathering on about how unimpressive Obama's win was, again rattling off Republican math and statistics. When Megyn Kelly could finally get a word in edgewise, she said: “You keep saying that, but he won, Karl, he won. And that's what the Republicans care about, what the Democrats care about."
