Women in Politics

I couldn't wait to see what Maureen Dowd had to say about McCain's choice for Vice President. I was hoping for a little more substantive remarks on Palin as a candidate and less about appearances. I guess that will come.

As to the choice, thinking outside the box is good, but the blatant play at women unhappy that Hilary didn't get the nod, an Alaskan who screems "OIL" and a conservative, is overtly offensive - at least to me. Out of hand, I have to dismiss anyone who doesn't believe in evolution.

Will the American people be smart enough to get it? I have my doubts.
