After victories in Wisconsin, the District of Columbia and Maryland this week, the once inevitable nomination of Mitt Romney looks inevitable once again, freeing him to swivel his big guns back in the direction of Barack Obama. The Republicans say that the vicious primary has turned Romney into a better and battle-hardened prospect for the White House. Maybe it has. But in one vital respect, the challenge mounted by Rick Santorum has weakened Romney. By dwelling so much on social and especially sexual issues, Santorum may have helped to make the whole Republican Party look hostile to women. Since women vote in larger numbers than men, this is a big problem. In March a Pew survey found Romney level-pegging with Obama among men, but trailing the president among women by fully 20 points (38% to 58%). Obama's lead comes mainly from young women; the over-65s are evenly divided, says Pew. Polls show that women lean towards the Democrats for many other reasons.
