Yeah, Women are about 16 Points more Democratic than Men are(D+12 vs R+4), though that's down from 19 points (D+21 vs D+2) in 2008.

I would guess the Dems need to ignore guns and try win this group but we need the South and that won't happen for a very very very long time to come. I wonder if this is because it's the single women vote, since married women tend to lean towards the Republican. One of the weirdest swing I have ever seen was women going to Gerald Ford in 1976 to Jimmy Carter in 1980. Can anyone explain this swing to me?

  This is the number that strikes terror in Dem hearts.  It flips key Midwestern states.

If this is the case, would this make the Northeast states such as Massachusetts and Rhode Island more closer?
