A woman — but why this woman? [Sarah Palin]

So. This is what being pandered to feels like.

John McCain picked Sarah Palin, governor of Alaska and mother of five, to be his running mate to woo women like me.

He seems to think that my girlfriends and I are so disappointed that an utterly qualified woman is not going to be president that we will jump at the chance to vote for an utterly unqualified woman for vice president.

You gotta love a guy who thinks things are that simple.

Women already outvote men in this country, and it isn't because we like voting for all those women on the ballot.

Does McCain think we will be so grateful for a skirt on the ticket that we won't notice that she's anti-abortion, a member of the NRA and thinks creationism should be taught alongside evolution?

Also as editor didn't Obama set a record on the fewest publications for Harvard Law Review editor. (Like 1 or 0 papers !)
Also while a “Constitutional law Professor” he couldn't be bothered with publishing scholarly papers there either! (Two autobiographies do not count as scholarly publications !)

Comments are up to #702 now. To wit: SUSAN-YOU HAVE DONE MORE FOR THE REPUBLICANS THEN YOU CAN IMAGINE. ...

LOL!! Here's # 791:

"Piling on ... Susan, your uninteresting navel-gazings have killed far, far too many trees. Now, your low opinion of a real woman like Sarah Palin reveals that you are a waste of DNA as well. Get thee to a nunnery and learn some compassion, humility or even plain ol' common sense. And please, do it in silence."

The comments section now has well over 4,000, and they keep coming at a rapid pace from all over the country. It seems that Drudge posted a link. As of 1750, they are still running 95% in favor of Palin.

another nail in the coffin of the Baltimore Sun.

I just got an offer in the mail from the B-Sun for one year of the paper on Saturday and Sunday for ONE CENT. I guess they could then count me as a paid subscriber. I don't want the trash (figuratively and literally) in my home.
