National Review; unsurprisingly he doesn't think much of President Obama. His topic today is the President's poor showing with men, see what he writes:
President Barack Obama has never been a man’s man, or, more precisely, a men’s man. In 2008 he failed to win a majority of men’s votes, and in 2012 he lost men decisively. (snip) In the most recent Quinnipiac poll, men report disapproval of the president by a more than 2-to-1 margin.
Williamson asks why this disparity and suggests an answer:
President Obama lost white men without college degrees by 31 points last time around. It may be the case that men see Barack Obama as a kind of romantic competitor — not the man himself, but the vision of government he stands for. The more the state steps into the role of provider, the less men have to offer in that capacity. This is especially true of men with modest earnings potential.
Meanwhile marriage continues to decline among those without baccalaureate degrees.
