react differently to the aggressiveness we saw on stage last night? i think what i ve seen from the initial reports of various dial groups and focus groups including these interesting walmart moms we ve been to loing through the following through the campaign suggest they do respond differently to the aggressiveness, women whether it s you know i m going to get myself in a little trouble here, whether they have less tolerance for aggressiveness or whether we re moms tired of listening to bickering children and a little bit of a response like that last night, i think they have less tolerance for that. i think that there was and kathsds rin suggested this, a little more of that from governor romney. he s in a tough situation because to the extent that his aggressiveness edges into being disrespectful towards the president of the united states, and i think there were a time or two when it did. i think that also puts him at risk with this group that s really essential to either of th
