“But women voters are not a bell curve, you know, the jaded feminists who are never going to vote Republican. But on the other side, I mean if — look, the socially conservative organizations like Eagle Forum and Christian Coalition and Daughters of the American Revolution — they’re are all very, very conservative and, which is why people like Jesse Helms and Ronald Reagan rarely had a gender gap, as they call it, whereas moderate Republicans like William Weld and Christine Todd Whitman do.”
Meanwhile, she said, the other side of the equation is overlooked: The Democratic Party has a problem with getting a majority of the male vote.
“And secondly we talk about the gender gap, the Democrats have — they can’t get men to vote for them,” she continued. “I mean, I assume because Obama won so big, he probably got a majority of the men’s votes, but I didn’t look that up. Other than him, Democrats haven’t gotten the majority of men to vote for them since 1944, other than the 1964 landslide.”
