The blowback on the Palin nomination continues. While the main thread of the netroots buzz is shifting to economic issues - Obama's strength, the reactions to the Palin candidacy are still percolating up from all areas of the electorate.
The other shoe is being dropped on McCain's ill-fated move to attract Hillary Clinton's supporters. It is being seen for what it is ... a McCain/Rove/Bush/Cheney MANipulation of women. No surprise ... guess it's not working out so well for the Repubs after all.

<Give me a break, NOW has long been known as the supporters of Lesbian issues not issues of women in general. >

Gee, I dunno.
didn't say I wanted a surprise .... ;-)
but the fact that NOW is supporting the PC side is a no-brainer.

Specifically this comment from NOW Pac Chair Kim Gandy comes to mind, "The fact that Palin is a mother of five who has a 4-month-old baby, a woman who is juggling work and family responsibilities, will speak to many women."
Please find me ONE statement, by ANY organization that includes words such as these, "The fact that Obama is the father of two, a man who is juggling work and family responsibilities, will speak to many men."
*****NOW has always been about equal rights for women.
