Hi potlatch!

Interesting thread on the Hillary Clinton forum entitled:
Action Items: 1) Donate to McCain to affirm Palin pick; 2) Stay vigilant for all sexism against Palin
It gets better:
Donate to John McCain and Sarah Palin, and let them know you love this pick and are thrilled that McCain showed Palin the respect that Democrats, and Barack “You’re likable enough” Obama in particular, NEVER showed Hillary Clinton:
https://secure.johnmccain.com/Contribute/ContributeE.aspx
Show McCain, Palin and America that you support women in the executive branch!
There are already stunning, sexist attacks against Palin all over the kook blogosphere. Daily Kos is comparing her with Dan Quayle, implying that she is mere eye candy, likely kind of dim-witted, and totally disrespecting her and all women.
Palin was both a mayor and a governor of the largest state in America. And these pigs are just dismissing her as though she were some joke in glasses.
The only party that’s dissed a high-profile woman recently is the Democratic Party. What they did both in rigging the system so Hillary could not win the nomination and what Obama did in utterly disrespecting Hillary by not even vetting her for the VP was unconscionable. A disgrace.
Today, we have a ticket that respects women as equals and recognizing their full worth.
Please, donate to that ticket today and show America that you appreciate this historical McCain/Palin combination, and that you want to help bring America its first-ever female Vice President.
The glass ceiling is cracking. Let’s shatter it!
Comments on the thread pretty much show what many of us suspected. Obama made a huge, freakin HUGE mistake not even vetting Hillary. If Hillary had been chosen as the VP he would have become the next President…but his arrogance and ego wouldn’t let him.
And for that, I thank you Barack Obama:
I donated today, just a small $25. But I’ll order somethings from his store as soon as Palin has been added. It wasn’t as of 12:30 PM. Just waiting. It feels good to be excited about something worthwhile in this campaign again.
Don’t forget to write a comment to McCain, letting him know how much you appreciate his choice. When I did, I also added that I was looking forward to buying McCain/Palin gear.
The John McCain site seems a bit swamped today!
I was going to leave the link, but I cannot get onto the webpage. When you do get on, look for the “Contact Us” button at the bottom and send him an email.
PS. I donated $100, just before the site got swamped.
JOHN MCCAIN HAS DEFENDED HILLARY ALL THE WAY
AND TODAY SARAH APPLAUDED GERALDENE
AND HILLARY GOOD GREAT
I DONT REMEMBER THE DNC DOING THAT SHAME ON THE DNC
Yes, we need to watch her back. Those sexist pigs in the MSM and the DNC will come after Palin.
the expected sexism is already started. The Obamalots are so stupid . can’t they see that Palin is a bait ?. I think the McCain team expected all of this . The more the MSM talk about experience , the worse their sexism the worse the democrats look and finally the less they focus on McCain
Yes, its just a small slice of the Hillary fans and I understand the hardcore feminists will shy away from Palin because of her abortion views but those who are not so hardcore, who wanted Hillary to win, and are insulted by the way she was treated may very well come over to the McCain/Palin ticket.
Nice posting devolve!
I loved the one who donated $20.12 to his campaign.
Puma power ping.
Thanks for the Puma power ping.
It is important to note that the comments at the Hillary Forum are being made by her long time supporters; people with 1000 posts, and moderators.
Oh, man!
Post of the week there, Phil!
Wow!
Just a GREAT pic there, thanks.
KEEP postin’ it! It needs to be seen by EVERY American.
