Not all women are “security-blanket” voters. Just look around here at FR.
Maybe with a woman on the ticket, a strong, accomplished woman who is not riding her husband’s coattails, more women will see that there are opportunities for them and feel less of a need to vote for the man who will give them the biggest handout.
At least Palin made it on her own merit.
Generally, Generally, gays are Democrats and women are “security-blanket” voters. When I look around here at FR, the women I see are like Clarence Thomases- exceptions to the rule. Women are overwhelmingly wimps, and they vote wimpishly. Just ask Barbara Boxer, Nanny Pelosi, and Hillary. That’s life. Sorry.
