...women who are not "strong in their own right". Please define strong vs not strong. My observation of the women you are labeling as strong is that they are self-absorbed man haters who like to use the word "mysogomy" a lot. Many demand entitlement in the business world and call it "rights." Pathetic really.

If Ferraro is an example, your lose. Dem women have always paled beside their more talented and qualified GOP brethren and Ferraro was famously and shockingly unqualified for elective office, especially anything close to president. GOP women are more an achiever class, who don't look for or expect special preferences, the sort of special political treatment Dem women feel they need and now expect to receive at the expense of others.

The Republican PArty has a history of affiliating themselves with women who are not "strong in their own right". That may be in the past tense. Bush has appointed numerous women to important posts. And, if I recall correctly, Reagan appointed Sandra Day O'Connor to the Supreme Court. One of my favorite justices, BTW. Also, the religious right feels that women should be secondary to their husband. They claim that this is a Biblical arrangement. I don't think you will deny that. I don't see any way to denying that. They say so themselves.

It wasn't a coincidence that Reagan was appealing to a different kind of man that would vote for a female VP. The problem with the female VP candidate wasn't that she was female, but that she was a democrat. Reagan voters fully embrace female candidates, as long as they aren't Marxists. Elizabeth Dole would have been a fine choice as VP candidate this time around. BTW, wasn't Reagan was the first president to elevate a female to the US Supreme Court?

Yes the democrat party is the party of the strong woman who when faced with discomfort can suck the brain out of the unborn child within or take a pill so that it will suffocate. Yes all strongly self centered self absorbed women are attracted to the party of the Master of Truth, the one an only impeached first rapist president bill. Tom Watson tosiwmee

This is such bad generalization. Religious Right does not compose the Republican Party. Are you saying redneck good old boys only vote Republican? Which candidate do the Unions support, without fail? What class of citizen belongs to the United Auto Workers and the Teamsters, and the other major Democrat backpocket Unions? There are just as many rednecks voting Democrat to protect their welfare checks and Union jobs as there are rednecks voting along traditional poor conservative lines. Which candidate did blacks and hispanics vote for overwhelmingly in this election? Do you propose that poor blacks have a firm tradition of women's equal rights? Do you propose that hispanics, with their Latin patriarchial culture, have a firm tradition of women's rights? Do you ever think before you post? Derek
