Jon Stewart on Wednesday looked at the one bright spot in Mitt Romney’s electoral loss. Married women are “seemingly the sole demographic” that moved in Romney’s direction. And if you watch Fox News, that’s because married women care about America’s future, whereas single women care about free birth control and abortions.
To break down the issue, Stewart turned to Senior Women’s Issues Correspondent Kristen Schaal, who is recently married. “You seem like the same person,” Stewart said.
“How dare you, Jon,” she said. “As soon as a groom — my groom — carried me across the threshold, I felt something new exploding inside me. It was concern for America’s future. But single women vote with their vaginas, Jon. And they only care about one issue: the sucking and the fucking.”
