No.

Give it a rest. This has nothing to do with Hillary. It's insulting to even suggest it does.

The Republicans will not be making history this time around.

The MSM and DKos certainlhy is.  We saw it with Hillary Clinton; we are now seeing it with Sarah Palin.

You are right. The Republican Party is the party that puts women's rights first!  The Party of Women! The Republican Party is a party where sexism does not reside in any way shape or form, neither does racism.  Just look at the diversity in their leadership, in the faces at their convention, just look at their policies and their record, just, and here's a good place to start actually, read their goddamn Platform!  That should be enough to convince everyone that the Republican Party is the party of marvelous apes.

Show some respect to Hillary Clinton. She's more than a political gamble. To even begin to compare her to Sarah Palin is an insult to her.

Now - the Republicans will have the opportunity to be the party to make history with the FIRST WOMAN VICE PRESIDENT in history.

how old are you?  The democrats put up a woman as Veep in 1984.

It took the republicans 24 years to pick someone who is obviously a pandering choice.

say what you will, the pick in '84 was not a pander.

Obama had no reason to avoid Clinton as VP other than his own ego.  He did not want to be overshadowed.  I too find it insulting, but I'm trying to find a way to hold my nose and vote for this guy.  I cannot donate or work for the Democratic Party - as I too am disgusted by them on so many levels (and for so many reasons).  As far as voting?  Well, I will vote Democratic this year because I feel the alternatives are just too awful.  

For Obama?  I have no love.  He could've healed the party- he chose not to.

Obama, whether you would like to admit it or not, is planning beyond this election and has picked a vp that will help him govern and that he can work well with.  Even if HRC would have helped him win the election, their tenure in the White House would have suffered from the pick.  I do not believe they would work well together as I think Hillary is too much of a leader to be an effective second fiddle.

McCain has picked his VP solely to win this election, and seems to have absolutely no interest in effective governance.  This should in no way be viewed through the lenses of sexism as Sam Palin would still be equally unqualified and have never had any foreign policy experience whatsoever.  

the party IS NOT sexist. Some people who call themselves Democrats can be or are sexist.

The repug party IS sexist and racist!

Sing it folks!

"Let's do the time warp again..."

"Let's do the time warp again..."

What a silly diary.

There are far more elected women Democrats than elected women Republicans.

And Democrats pursue policies that are pro-women.  Republicans do not.

Oh, please shut up.

I'm sure that as soon as Obama reads this he'll drop Biden and ask Clinton to run with him instead.  You'd better send this to him--to him PERSONALLY, not to his campaign--right now.

Seriously,

Is this Snark?

even Hillary disagrees with you.

Suggesting these two people are equal (Palin/Clinton) due to their internal plumbing is one of the most Misogynistic things I have ever heard.   Do you, like McCain think women are interchangeable and disposable?

If your first wife gets banged up in a accident and does not look the same anymore that's OK exchange her for a new, skinny, beauty pageant rich version.  

No Hillary, just exchange her for a woman, any woman,they won't care!

I had the pleasure to meet with some Hillary delegates at DFW from IN returning from Denver yesterday, they were appalled McCain thought they were that stupid.

I'm surprised you subscribe to the "anyone with a vagina will do" philosophy.  

how could you watch the primaries unfold and not understand that the answer to your question is yes. More importantly it is yes and why don't you just shut up and go away or else: ROE v WADE, Supreme Court ,  ROE v WADE, Supreme Court,ROE v WADE Supreme Court,ROE v WADE, Supreme Court......

you have no where else to go

You are claiming that one of our corporate centrist parties is "sexist."  Ask yourself if this makes any sense.

Saying women will only vote with their genetalia is sexist. Palin is truly dangerously unqualified. I still can't believe this isn't a joke.

if the McCain campaign is sexist in its distribution of Action Center points.

If Obama chose Hillary as his VP, he could be accused of the same thing we are accusing McCain of:

He chose her to gain votes, but not to govern.

Not that Hillary is not qualified... she is WAAAAAAY  more qualified than Palin, but they are very different people who work very differently and do not fit well together...

...instead of fighting a battle that's long been over:

See a movie.
Start up a garden.
Go for a hike out in nature.
Learn an instrument.
Read a book.
Play with the popular Nintendo Wii.
Bake cookies.
Support a local democrat.

The Democratic party is not sexist. The media, their blogospheric acolytes and parts of Obama's coalition are.

McCain did not make this choice to peel off pro-choice Democratic primary voters, though he will pick up some with this choice, he made this choice to both shore up his base and improve his performance among women in the GE electorate.

One way he improves his performance among women with this pick, even pro-choice women, is by exploiting the sexism of the media and some Obama supporters. We have to figure out how to counteract the positive effects of his choice in the GE electorate without indulging the sexism that would defeat our efforts.

If Obama thought Hillary as VP would win him the presidency he would have picked her in a NY minute. It's simplistic to think that if you add Hillary and Obama together you automatically add the the 2 bases, as if the candidates owned their voters. You will lose voters from both camps as a result of the pairing. Obama after consideration must have figured the negatives outweighed the pluses.

VP is not a consolation prize for coming in second. The winning candidate chooses based on his or her requirements and strategy. Kerry got 59 million votes in 2004 and Gore actually won the 2000 election does that make them more of a must pick then Hillary and her 18 million votes? The fact that Hillary wasn't chosen is no knock on Hillary any more then it is an insult to any of the other potential candidates.

Biden is a perfect partner for Obama and eminently qualified not because there where not other qualified possibilities including Hillary. Had Hillary won she would have been under no obligation to choose Obama. She might have depending on the circumstances but in the end she would have went with the VP that made most sense for her and her campaign.  

Your diaries are nothing more than petulant screeds about issues you don't actually care to discuss.
