Not a newsman fan, but McCain's trying to lure the "white women" vote from the dems. Do you think he'll pick Carly Fiorinia as a running mate? Sixty Minutes ran interviews both with Fiorina, her successor, and the guy accused of engineering their departure from Hewlett-Packard a couple weeks ago. He was accused of sexism.

What's Fiorina's background? Could she be sufficiently vetted? What--besides her gender--would be the attraction for "white women". And which white women?

Nope, she is too vulnerable to criticism in her running of the merger.

Maybe the "angry" ones. I wouldn't cast my vote for just "any" woman.

Most women are Conservative, and not just white women either. Typically black women are Conservative, but lean Democrat. And really, most of the 'intelligent' members of Conservative and/or Republican parties are in fact, women. It is usually the older men who are 'lunatics' with their policies.

McCain should pick Sarah Palin as VP, although, she has done a lot of good for her state, and I doubt they would want her to leave.
