FL-Quinnipiac: Romney+6, Romney/Rubio+8

[Reaganfan]

Compared to Bush 2004, Romney has made massive gains among Florida whites.

Too bad the growing number of hispanic voters can't stand him.

Yeah, too bad.

Well, a gender gap like that isn't special to the US.
We have the same in Canada and I suppose elsewhere.

Easy to explain, because the women are usually poorer than men and have more "social" jobs (nursing, etc...) which make them see the sad life of poor people, while more men are in leadership positions, where they see more benfits with right-wing positions.

I always thought it was because women vote based on emotion more than men do.

But neither group as a whole votes on emotion as much as you do.

Oh I don't doubt that, since many conservatives are reactionary.
