2. After refusing to shake Hillary's hand tonight,
he can put his head between his legs and kiss his petulant ass goodbye. Women who still support him will desert in droves.

15. Oh ... I Don't Think It Was That Big a Deal With Women
I would think he would lose more points with men, who are taught from childhood to beat the crap out of their opponents on the playground, then go shake hands.

11. It might have always existed
I looked at the internals for these polls and was surprised to see such a big gender gap. Edwards and Obama better do something about it fast.
