In the 2002 congressional elections, more than half of married moms sided with Republicans while only 35 percent voted with Democrats. Two years later, in a presidential election year, married moms preferred Bush over Democratic Sen. John Kerry by 56 percent to 42 percent.

That GOP advantage has evaporated.

GOP incompetence has managed to erase one of their almost structural advantages that is the “marriage gap,” at least when it comes to married women.  More married women have long preferred the GOP, and for a time it was one of the unmentioned secrets that put the lie to all of the talk of a “gender gap,” since the gap usually only existed among single women.  If they are not winning among married women, I don’t see how they avoid the coming debacle.
