I don't only mean women.. but it was Obama with race.. and now Romney with religion... it just seems to be more evident in the last few elections.
And I believe the reason why McCain chose a woman as a running-mate is because Hillary Clinton was pulling in a lot of votes from, well.. women. When she was out of the picture, he probably figured he could pick up additional votes, at least among the female Independents.
I don't believe that strategy is as apparent in this election.
But hey, Romney can just pick someone who's on the opposite end of the religious spectrum from him, and he's sure to win! .....
