Yay! A Woman!

I can’t help wondering if, on some level, it insults Geraldine Ferraro and the PUMA crowd to be so clearly shown how little respect John McCain and the Republican Party has for them. What McCain is saying with Palin is this: You are all so pathetic that you will vote for any woman I put out there, just because she is a woman. We’ll abolish Roe, send your sons and daughters to Iran, restart the Cold War, watch the economy continue to deteriorate, give tax relief to Big Oil, do nothing about the environment, and you’ll hold the door open for us and smile because I put a woman on my ticket.

The unfortunate truth is that some of them will. All that remains to be seen is how many, and will they be enough to swing this election.

Prediction for VP debates: The PUMAs will surface in the days before the Biden/Palin debate, warning Joe not to “bully” his opponent. And in the days following, regardless of what happens, they will push the argument that he did just that.
