coming gay people and guaranteeing them fraternal space in our communities? aren't frats already gay enough? listen up pope fabulous i, the lord is perfectly clear on the gays. the first time he saw a naked guy running around, he ribbed out his rib and forced him to have sex with a woman. he was clear with her, too, no fruity stuff! i'm so excited, the mid-terms will almost here. it's almost like christmas but with more talk about jeez. with 21 days left before the election, one group the g.o.p. is trying to still woo, woman! >> the republican party is in worse shape with women than in 2010. >> republicans and women, it's been a message problem. >> the republican party has a problem communicating with women. >> study ordered by two

republican groups found female voters feel the party is stuck in the past, said the g.o.p. is intolerant and lacks compassion. >> stephen: the g.o.p. has problems communicating with women but that doesn't mean they don't care. it's like the shy kid at the dance who wants to get your attention by denying you equal pay. means he likes you. (laughter) fortunately, one g.o.p. group developed a campaign that's sure to win the lady vote, the college republican national committee or crnc! they created an ad for the governor's race of charlie crist and naked mole rat rick, and the ad asks women to make november 4 the most magical day of their

lives. >> it's a big deal for me now that i just graduated from college. >> rick scott is perfect! . he has ideas that don't break the budget. >> they are imitating the popular tlc show "say yes to the dress" to appeal to the female voters in the 15eu78 way you would appeal to veterans with cupcake wars. in this ad, each candidate is metaphorically represented by a different wedding dress and the bride looks radiant in the rick scott but mom has other ideas. >> i like the charlie crist. it's expensive and a little outdated, but i know best. >> don't forget, the charlie crist comes with additional cost. there's over $2 billion in taxes. >> mom, this is my decision. i see a better future with rick scott. >> sometimes it's hard to let go of old style but it all works

out in the end because she said yes to rick scott!
