Daily show: Republicans trying to win the lady vote

UNBLOCKED version of this video in the comment section.

The Daily Show’s Senior Lady Correspondent Kristen Schaal is awfully impressed with the latest trend in Republican outreach to women: Ads that treat voting like being in a relationship. This is not sexist, because Lena Dunham started it, and she is an admitted woman. You won’t want to miss her explanation of how one big chunk of lady brains are devoted to thinking about relationships, and one other big chunk is devoted to bitchiness. It’s funny because it’s true! Also, women have had it with Barry Bamz, because “we gave Obama our hearts, and all we got in return was this free birth control!” -Wonkette

Just because women voters overwhelmingly voted for Obama over Romney doesn't really mean they're going to decide the election. People have to show up at the polls..period. Midterms traditionally have lower turnout because of the perception that they don't matter and low voter turnouts tend to favor the R

To me it just means Romney failed miserably connecting with women (just like he failed miserably to connect with most humans, even fellow republicans)

Republicans are "attempting" to make up for a long history of treating women as second class citizens so they're desperate, but it's just coming off as patronizing.

If Republicans could put forth a candidate that wasn't a complete stereotype of someone in the 50s maybe they'd have better luck. Women aren't the only demographic Republicans are having trouble with.

The tone of the initial assertions that "women will decide this vote" casts women as a powerful minority.

Good job news dickheads, keep it up!(?)

Thanks for the not-blocked embed in the comments, otherwise it wasn't loading for me.

I learned that if Kristen were a man, she'd look a little like and have mannerisms like Edward Norton!

The sad thing is...ittl likely work.
Think of the most average intelligence woman you know....half the worlds population are more stupid than them. And these women will be their demographic.....

also sends the message "bah, don't bother voting, the women will decide it for us"
