How many wives and mothers of 5 do you see running for political office? It's just not in their DNA to do that. Why is this Palin willing to juggle her domestic duties while at the same time running for political office, women just don't do that so something is not right to me about that.

I'm not happy about the choice either but it is what it is, our enemies are men, I'm not for sending the wives and mothers of our country to lead us in the fight against them when we have qualified men available to do that job.

Women and men ARE different, they think different, they reason different, they are more pacifist in nature, I want men in power who are willing and not afraid to go to war when necessary.

I want men in power who are willing and not afraid to go to war when necessary.

Me too, like M. Thatcher did!

I would suspect that Palin loves her country as much as any of us do.

Much like Maggie Thatcher and Golda Mier loved their countries. Strong leaders, both. And female.

While I reject the characterization of strong women as being somewhat strange, I can understand the opposition many folks have to women who don't seem to stay in their place. I don't agree with it, but I recognize it exists and is endemic to the male psyche.
