You say that as though we knew that was the case. If the cables are public, which most everything is anymore, what difference does it make.

I would possibly vote for a woman for president so long as they were left of center, if not completely leftist, politicians. I would never vote for Coulter, Palin or Clinton.

IMHO it is the policies, not the personalities or gender, that count.

I honestly don't care if the candidate is male or female. I'll be curious to see though, if a conservative woman would get any votes from democrats. The amount of vitriol directed at Palin from the lefties is crazy.

Obama may get re-elected. Stranger things have happened. If one was to evaluate his chances based on performance, he would not stand a snow balls chance in hell. However, apparently that is not how people vote.

Palin WILL NOT be the republican candidate. Too many republicans (myself included) would never support her. She is not widely favored by the money people in our state, which goes first for the primaries. Who WILL BE the republican candidate? I don't know- but I can tell you it will not be Newt Gingrich or Sarah Palin.

Didn't take long for that old myth to pop it's ridiculous head up!


Which means only intelligent people are perfectly fine with a woman president.



Boehner, MALE REPUBLICAN Speaker of the House blubbers like a baby if he's so much as asked for his address.


Are you fine with this????????

Hillary is pulling Obama's strings like Cheney did with Bush so one could argue we already have a female president.

This, I believe, is because Palin is mostly what the libs like in women. She is intelligent, independent and strong willed. They "hate" her, I believe, because she is what they want in a woman, but she is operating against them. To the libs, women are supposed to be either Dems or horribly downtroden and suppressed by their men. This is BS, of course, but that seems to be what the libs want people to think about conservative women.

All of the candidates that make it to the primary are internationalist. They don't care about the U.S. citizens as anything but chattel....we're pawns in their game! Wake up.

Since you refuse to acknowledge the fact that men are emotional could you at least think about these questions?:

How can you respect the advice of a woman if you can't respect her enough to have her lead?


How do you think men have done so far in "leading" the world?

Have they done a good job??

They've had about 10,000 years of leading so everything should be just perfect with their "superior" leadership....right???? RIGHT?
