Door Knocker, Florence, Italy

Does anyone remember when Senator Clinton was running for the democratic nomination? How it was insinuated that women would vote for her just because she was a woman – damn her policies, positions, etc. And women were up in arms because we’re not that dumb; we do have functioning brains.

Then along comes Sarah Palin. An inexperienced governor from Alaska with a knocked up 17 year old who has taken over the news for the past week or two. What on earth would make a man choose such a person as a running mate? Possibly angling for the women’s vote? Doesn’t that mean the Republicans are insinuating that women will vote any woman into office – the thing we were up in arms about to begin with when the press portrayed our support for Hillary in the same manner?
