@sickburnbro having a group constantly being on the edge of voting left if you say something "the wrong way" just begs the question of whether or not those voters truly are on your side to begin with. The short answer is no, they are not.
I get why politicians pander and focus so much on tone and messaging, because they have to make sure that they still have enough of the women's vote due to universal suffrage. Wouldn't it be better if we didn't have to dance around issues all the time?
