Palin-digestion

I am a registered Independent because I really will vote for whoever the best candidate is.

But McCain has lost my vote by nominating a woman in such a cheap manner. He did so to show that the Republican party can be "liberal" by finally embracing someone with ovaries. However, what is masked behind this facade of equality is the fact that Palin is a radical conservative who believes in denying a woman's right to choose, who has no respect for the planet or its threatened species, and who governs in a fashion akin to being student council president in junior high.

As a feminist, I long for the day when a woman will sit in the White House in a strong capacity....but i won't cast a ballot for a woman just because she's a woman. and that's just what the mccain campaign is trying to make happen - all while trying to hide the fact that she is nothing more than a conservative sheep in lipstick.
