I thought you were referring to the South Carlina woman who asked John McCain how he was gonna beat the "B". The race to the gutter has begun, and it appears donkeys and elephants are neck and neck.

How dare a woman have the audacity to believe she has the right to run for such an obviously male position? The funny thing with this story is it will in no way help or hurt McCain's campaign, because he is already a dead candidate walking. Yes, the wacky right's irrational loathing of a woman, a twice elected senator, who dares run for the presidency is laughable when viewed through the prism which reflects the damage the right's policies have caused us all. If Hillary Clinton can get Blackwater mercanaries under control (a GOP led group through and through), and if she can help uninsured Americans all while beginning to pay off the notes that this current President has burdened US ALL with, I'll vote for her in a nano second.

What amazes me is that Shawn Hannity, Fox "newsman" who introduces the very amenable Rudy Giuliani at fundraisers has billboards that say "Stop Hillary now." Wow!!! How fantastically American. Don't offer any alternatives. Don't spend money with billboards that say vote Giuliani. Spend your money trying to undermine other candidates by propogating irrational hate. I don't get you patriotic conservatives some times.
