on CNN's undecideds dials-testing. The squiggly lines for the men generally went high for Romney attacks but not usually for women. For Obama, the women went higher when talking about healthcare, etc.

Remember, Romney leads with men in polling and Obama leads in women for a reason.

As a woman, Romney REALLY bothers me with his rudeness.
