I find it deeply insulting, as a woman, that sexism is rearing its ugly head on the left with all the demeaning comments, such as "she's a hottie", and other attempted marginalizations of Governor Sarah Palin and her accomplishments. I find it sad, but almost comical, to hear this coming from the very people who claim to champion women's rights and practice tolerance and inclusiveness. To even insinuate that an attractive, feminine, pro life, woman with strong family values, who happens to be the embodiment of a woman's "having it all" that they profess to support, cannot be intelligent, strong, and a leader, is an insult to all women. The fact that the left thinks any woman running for office who is not in lock step with their pro abortion and other feminist views, does not represent the women of America, is hypocritical at best.
I have a feeling there are millions more strong American women, like myself, who identify with the values Governor Palin represents, rather than those of the women in N.O.W. and on the far left . As a woman, I'm thrilled we could possibly have a female in the position of Vice President who is the "real deal".
