Mark Penn, the pollster and senior strategist of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, predicted Thursday that nearly a quarter of Republican women would defect from the GOP if the New York senator is the Democratic presidential nominee in 2008. 
At a breakfast with political reporters, Penn said his internal polling shows Clinton would win over some 24 percent of Republican women in the 2008 general election because of the “emotional” appeal of electing the country’s first woman president.
Penn said the trend is as evident in the South, a region Democratic presidential candidates have had trouble winning in recent elections, as in all other regions of the country.
Penn said the trend indicates that Clinton would be a stronger Democratic presidential candidate in the South than either Al Gore was in 2000 or John Kerry was in 2004.

Ole' Pecoz don't live in the woods, and women in this country don't live on the farm, barefoot and pregnant, to be brought into town on a turnip truck and dumped at the voting place! Not only is there no way that bright, hardworking, intelligent Republican women are gonna vote for this scheming, foul mouthed, Bubba enabler! But I suspect a whole slew of intelligent, hardworking Democrat women are gonna take a pass on her and sit on their hands or vote for someone else even if they have to close their eyes. I'm sure they'd all like to see the white male stereotype for President changed to include a lady or six, but this sure ain't the one they're gonna hang their chads on!
Good thing they point out that this Penn boy is a hired hand of Hellery, lest he be locked up in a rubber room for folks with wild ideas.
