stop the sexism!

Commentary: Sexist treatment of Palin must end - CNN.com

I call upon the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower who will wilt at any moment.

This woman is from Alaska for crying out loud. She is strong, she is tough, she is confident. And you claim she is ready to be one heartbeat away from the presidency. If that is the case, then end this chauvinistic treatment of her now. Allow her to show her stuff.

Awesome blog! It's amusing that the campaign holds her up as a tough-as-nails woman who hunts moose, then whines about sexism. Either way, she petrifies me.

thanks! :) yes funny that, isn't it? she petrifies me too... i think we just have to ignore her, and hope the media does too... and she will go away... really, her popularity comes from the fake outrage about the media "attacking her," which energizes the republican base. they stop attacking her, and what else does she have? nada.
