McCain picked Palin to try to get some of the hard core Hillary voters. We all know that. it is also a fact that some of the hard core Hillary voters were voting Hillary mainly because she was a woman and they wanted that 'glass ceiling' broken.

Really, as a fervent Hillary supporter you should be really insulted that mcCain has the gaul to try to replace Hillary with Palin to Hillary die hards. She stands for everything that Hillary stood against, The only thing Hillary and Palin have in commone is some body parts.

It really is sad this race is still about sex. Now McCain is playing the sexism card to woo voters.

What do Democrats want? We want all hands on board to win. That includes Hillary. Winning is in the best interest of the country.

I mentioned Hillary. I don't remember exactly what I wrote, but it was something like...I will love to see her response to the Palin pick. Some reporter will ask her about it.

But I've been on since about 10am and read most everything...and nothing stands out.


Except Terry constantly ruining everybody's posts by saying we didn't pick Hillary and its now up to Joe....on posts that had nothing to do with our ticket. Maybe people were just pissed at him and threw something out...but once I see somebody doing what he does...I start ignoring the responses to him (or is terry a female. I never know on this site).

The GOP attacked Hillary constantly, then once she was gone, they claimed she was choice. oh Lord.

The point was, McCain insulted Hillary. Here's how: Hillary put many hours, blood, sweat and tears into working as a Congresswoman, then even harder work into her campaign. She's out, but McCain had the audacity to take an inexperienced woman from outside the realm and put all his trust and keys in to her hands. What message is he sending? That he thought women should have a chance? If he did, why didn't he vet a woman NOT under investigation of interfering in a 2 yr old divorce case? Of if his message was flipping a bird at Hillary, he used the wrong finger! What's wrong with his head, he's been attacking BO forever on "WHO is he?" and "Why didn't he take Hillary?" What a hypocrite. I'm gonna scream "WHO" is she? (Well, I know exactly who she is and what she does, I share the same state and see her often. It's wasted debate on McC's part. I felt Hillary was strong and experienced, I don't feel Sarah has experience to make her strong contender (I know her), but the country does not, she's in your face to climb to the top at all cost, wants the lime light on her. She's worse than Bush and McCain combined. Creepy. Sorry you don't see the connection.
zzzzz nite.

No it is especially not a joke when a cynical gender-panderer tries to fool people. Especially when a known womanizer does it. NO Way.NO How. Not Funny. You forget, she is not running.....she was picked. VP doesn't run for office...that is a myth. No separate item on the ballot. It used to be, but not anymore.

And, it is absolutely NOT a joke for you to pretend that her selection isn't all about Hillary. THAT'S why we're all talking about them. And it is absolutely pathetic for you and Terry, et al, believe that ANY woman is better than a qualified woman. That is the difference between your generation of women and my generation. A uterus does not make one smarter or more qualified. There are good women and bad women. The ONLY sexism played out here on this blog is from you LightASSweight Brigade Hillary crybabies.

BTW mel.....I love female candidates and officeholders. My sister (1 yr older) won three terms in the CA State Assembly and got smeared for doing a sexy photoshoot for San Jose Magazine.

My personal favorite was Barbara Jordan. Somehow I always thought she might become the first woman prez.

He picked a former Miss Alaska contestant - a hottie. Bill Maher refers to her a a "MILF." John McCain is chasing skirts. Somebody, please curb his Viagara.
