Post Election Thoughts

A couple of things were interesting that I heard or read. First, there was a significant amount of women who voted for Bush compared to the 2000 race. And it appears to be mostly married women. Why is this? Is it the safety factor? Do these women feel more secure with the way Bush is going about dealing with the terrorists? Maybe, but I'm wondering if there's a Laura Bush factor here. She just exudes character just standing there. Are married women attracted to her? She is also obviously not Pro Life. But she supports her husband. Maybe women who are Pro Choice feel that there are too many abortions and Bush is the best way to do something about this even though they don't want to overturn Roe V. Wade.

Also, even this morning on the radio, there appears to be some discussion from the press and even within the Democratic party concerning why they can't seem to attract voters who site moral values as a big concern. Well, it's not your fathers democratic party anymore. It's run by social radicals and that's pretty obvious. Then you field a guy who is to the left of Ted Kennedy. Don't you think it's obvious why you can't attract religious people? But anyway, it's good that the press are taking note of this.
