I voted for Hillary in the primary. I voted for Obama in the general.
I'd never say Condoleeza Rice, Margaret Thatcher, or Elizabeth Dole are stupid, although I disagree with their political views or things they did in office. I don't know much about Nikki Haley, but nothing about her that I have heard indicates she's deficient in intellect or living in an alternate reality.
On the other hand, Sarah Palin, Christine O'Donnell, Sharon Angle, and Michele Bachmann are examples of politicians (or aspiring ones) who happen to be female and who happen to be nutty and/or ignorant. And supporting women because they're "hot" despite having no evidence of anything other than fluff in their heads is a GOP problem.
Too funny. Ok my friend care to break down the percentage of Americans who self identify as liberal vs. conservative. If you did, you would see you would be quite lonely.
To funny, well at least you have given up the unsupportable defense that the left doesn't have a woman problem, for the equally weak defense of "so do they".
No, what's going on here is that you are trying to equate the left's feelings about Palin and Bachmann with the right's feeling toward Hillary...
You remember being called a misogynist when you probably piled on Hillary with the slurs with the rest of your yeehaa buddies and now think that just because the left doesn't like a woman on the right that you are comparing apples to apples.
Well, hate to burst your bubble, but that isn't the case. The previous poster's example of Condi Rice is a good one. I might give her a hard time due to her politics, but I would never impugn her intelligence.
Tell me how that fits into your neat little label that you wish to slap on the entire left because they DARE disparage your wingnut tea-party ladies because of their displayed ignorance on many topics?
And the left would still mock them. And call them stupid. Face it, the left hates strong conservative women. The fact that you state that they must be smart and have good looks just proves how sexist you are.
Whatever, it is you with the issue not I, I was only adding the smart portion of the idea the right is already stuck on them being sorta pretty.

Well of course you are wrong on multiple counts. Any differences I ever expressed about Hillary were strictly issue related.
And of course you are wrong about Condi as well. YOU may not impugn her intelligence but many have. I suggest you Google Condaleeza Rice is stupid, to get a flavor of what your fellow travelers think of her.
