Conservative Poll: Women Think The GOP Is 'Intolerant'
Source: TPM
By CAITLIN MACNEAL Published AUGUST 27, 2014, 6:47 PM EDT
A poll commissioned by two conservative groups found that the Republican party is failing to win over women voters, according to a copy of the report obtained by Politico on Wednesday.
The report found that women think the GOP is "intolerant" and "stuck in the past," and that women are "barely receptive" to Republican policies. Women think Republicans "fail to speak to women in the different circumstances in which they live."
This lack of understanding and acknowledgment closes many minds to Republican policy solutions, the report reads, according to Politico.
The report, titled "Republicans and Women Voters: Huge Challenges, Real Opportunities," found that the party does "especially poorly" among women in the Northeast and Midwest.

Now watch that drive.

(115,576 posts)Voting against equal pay for women? Check.
Voting against raising the minimum wage? Check.
Voting to restrict women's reproductive rights? Check.
Voting to take away government aid for poor children and families? Check.
"Spokesmen" like Rush Limbaugh calling women bimbos and sluts? Check.
And they wonder why there's a problem...

And may I add, poor excuse for humans?

They don't HAVE solutions.
They make up problems that don't exist and claim they're the heroes to fix it.
Meanwhile actual problems of real people are "not the job of government".
