There is no question about that. Well, all the research that has been done on the gender gap seems to suggest that the issue that drives the gap are men and women's different views about the proper role of the federal government with women favoring a slightly stronger role for government than men. But there are other issues that also contribute to the gender gap. Men and women view their personal futures in the same way, they are both equally positive, but women are a lot less confident about the country's economic future. You can hold age constant, you can hold income constant.
Women are also later-deciders.
They take longer to make up their minds. Women are much slower to believe that the expansion is real. Women are slower to believe that the fundamental nature of the Soviet Union had changed. It appears to be role of government, the economic future, attitudes toward risk, overall, those are the big drivers of the gender gap. Both campaigns have to be worried.
