[buycitgo]

talking about voting trends........

new, HOT demo is SINGLE WOMAN!!!!!!!


unbelievable.......I've started several threads on this, citing REAL experts, like Stan Greenberg, and NOBODY gave a rat's ass

22 MILLION unmarried women didn't vote last time

etc.

wish I had the thread that had lots of stats, but when they redesigned bookmarks, I lost all the old ones

[buycitgo]

1. one of the guests is from Greenberg's polling company

might be his daughter

they're discussing how to get out the votes among the female and YOUTH demo, cause they believe it's a rich potential source of democratic votes

steven spielberg's son is also on, as well as Maggie Gyllenhall

[efhmc]

2. I have one of those in my family (my daughter) but she votes!

[jsummers]

3. kick

[buycitgo]

4. got THAT

I was really disappointed that nobody cared about this subject when I brought it up, at least two months ago....kept bringing it back to zero response

but think about this demographic

how many of them fit the democratic profile?

that was the point of the articles I linked, too.....

will break my back and hit google for it

[buycitgo]

6. sorry it took so long

5. Wish I'd seen this in time.......so, did he blast the non-voting women?

That seems to be the trend....... rather than figure out why, and how to change that, the non-voters are just blasted..... I'd like to know what he said.

Thanks for posting -- I always appreciate the heads up......wish I had seen this in time......

10. no they talked about the need to tap this demographic

george soros and Theresa Kerry should SPEND a bunch of money
on this, and help get the vote out

wonder if they know about this

[Kanary]

14. Well, I guess that definitely shows the left bias then........

I got royally blasted here for trying to explain why poor folk no longer vote in the numbers they used ot.

Totally taken to task.

But, "single women" are going to be wined and dined, until they vote, eh?

Yup, the bias is clear.

Thanks for letting me know. I wanted to know........ and now I really feel disheartened.

8. Isn't it "Take A Single Non-Voting Woman To The Movies Week"?

[buycitgo]

9. it is for me.......already did it

taking somebody else to see F911 this week before I go away

they're very appreciative

[yodermon]

11. well..

Reason #493 for Kerry to pick John Edwards.

[Lex]

12. Heh. Shallow, but . . . . possibly true?

Look single women are being marketed to like crazy--for lipstick, weight loss products, cars, clothes, hair products . . .

How the hell is the Democratic party going to get on the radar?


(I'm speaking in generalities here.)

[buycitgo]

13. so what's wrong with shallow, anyway?

should I go to a nursing home next?

and, btw, how do you know what I meant by "appreciative?"

I see you chose to take shallow, un-nuanced interpretation.

[Lex]

15. Sorry--I was responding to yoderman's post and so

I have no idea what you're talking about. ?????
