Most Women Think The GOP Has Not Improved Its Anti-Woman Views

In the 2012 election, the Republican Party did very poorly among three demographic groups -- minorities, young people, and women. They lost all three of those groups by large margins. After the election, the national Republican Party leaders said they were going to try to reach out to those groups so they could do better in future elections.
But elected GOP officials have not lived up to that promise. They showed minorities they had no interest in reaching out to them by killing the immigration reform bill and refusing to participate in the 50th anniversary celebration of the March on Washington. They did the same to young voters by demanding college loans be a money-maker for the government, and by continuing their homophobic attempts to discriminate against the LGBT community.
Now a new poll is showing that women also don't believe the Republican Party has moderated their anti-woman views and tried to reach out to them. It is the United Technologies / National Journal Congressional Connection Poll (conducted between September 25th and 29th of 1,005 adults nationwide, with a 3.7 point margin of error).
Note that about 4 out of every 5 women in this country (about 79%) think the GOP has either stayed the same (46%) or gotten even worse (33%), while only a paltry 14% think the GOP has improved its views on women's issues. And the same is true of women between 18 & 49, women 50 & over, college white women, and non-college white women.
With these kind of numbers, it certainly doesn't look like the Republicans can hope to win a majority (or even half) of the women's vote in the election next year. It seems that the two groups that currently control the GOP, the teabaggers and the fundamentalists, still seem to think they can win by pursuing policies directed at only old white men. That attitude, if not changed soon, could cost them in the 2014 election -- and will definitely hurt them in 2016.
