The Parents Gap
Another shocker: Married people with children don't want babies killed, the ACLU defending public perversion, and homosexuals further undermining the institution that's at the center of their lives.
The Progressive Policy Institute has discovered a "parent gap": in the last two presidential elections, Democrats have lost married parents by 15 and 19 points. Even though Kerry won the youth vote by 9 points, here's what author Barbara Dafoe Whitehead has to say about the future:
"At the same time, however, it is also worth thinking about where many of these voters will be standing come 2008. Some are already married. More will be married four years from now. And many of the married couples will have children. At that point, will the Democrats still look as good to them, let alone to those who are already married with children?"
