Re: Looks like strongly anti-choice Sarah Palin is McCain's choice.

I think it is highly debatable to assume, as the McCain
camp appears to have done, the women will vote for a
"generic" woman. In fact to believe that is insulting to
women. And it has not proved to be true.
What is so insulting. I thougt you wanted change?
Palin = change, Biden = same politics
Or are you insulted because she didn't drink the kool-aide you drink?

What is so
Hillar is not just a woman, but a particular woman with
her own history and policies -- pro choice and a liberal
while Palin is a right wing Republican with all that
entails.
I guess you meant Hillary, and you are right, she is just not a women,
but a particular woman with her own history and ploicies ...and people
don't want them.

She also said publicly she didn't like Hillary's "whining."
I'm glad someone speaks out publicly and tells it like it is.

From TPM Election Central:


Today in Ohio, new McCain veep pick Sarah Palin made a big play for
Hillary voters by referencing her now-famous "18 million cracks in the
glass ceiling" quote.
Maybe she can repair that glass ceiling>


But Newsweek reports that back in March, at a Women and Leadership
event held by the mag, Palin's view of Hillary wasn't quite as
charitable:

Once onstage, together with Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano, Palin
talked about what women expect from women leaders; how she took charge
in Alaska during a political scandal that threatened to unseat the
state's entire Republican power structure, and her feelings about Sen.
Hillary Clinton. (She said she felt kind of bad she couldn't support a
woman, but she didn't like Clinton's "whining.")
