Sorry, Mitt. We're still not that into you. [View all]
I'm starting to think the Romney "victory" extravaganza is a largely male phenomenon. I have honestly not spoken to a single woman today who was hyperventilating about the "Romney win." Every woman I spoke to thought he looked smug and nasty and they were not taken in by his lies. Quite the opposite, in fact. Women seem particularly turned off by the lies.
I don't want to turn this into "male bashing" but I have seen a lot of leftist guys today peeing their pants about last night. I guess it's a guy thing. Romney was the alpha in the debate and in man-world that translates to a huge win. It makes me sad to see this, but not scared. Romney always had the male vote locked up. He needed to win over the females last night and I think we'll see he did just the opposite.
So, sorry Mitt, but in female-world, smirking liars are a dime a dozen. We dumped one of those four years ago and we're not anxious to take up with another. I bet when the dust settles, and the pundits catch their breath, we'll see your poll numbers go down even further amongst women. We're just not that into you and no amount of smirking, alpha preening is going to change that.
