So, between Tina Fey's endorsement (let's call it what it was) on Feb 23rd and Post's above the fold story today and the Outlook features on Sunday I feel compelled to announce the following fairly obvious fact to the world.
this one goes out to aggrieved feminists everywhere:
The real world version of gender equality will mean that a female candidate will be judged as a candidate and not as a female. Many, maybe even most, of the women who support Barack Obama are advocating for the candidate they have judged the best qualified and inspiring. The flip side of hillary's 'experience' is that we know her well, and we are able to judge her, not simply as a woman, but as a person, and a politician. No, we're not mindless flush-faced groupies, or anti-feminists, or elitists, we are women with our own minds qualified and able to determine who to vote for.
