So at least two women in America are "finished" as props in the McCain campaign, but don't be surprised if they make a cameo at the convention, where folks know to clap for a phony tribute. A description of newly minted running mate Sarah Palin's now adjusted remarks from MSNBC:
After that, she went back to the stump speech she delivered on Friday and Saturday. But she skipped the entire section in which she highlighted the achievement of having a woman on the ticket -- as well as her praise for those who came before her, Geraldine Ferraro and Hillary Clinton. Yesterday, when campaigning in Pennsylvania, she received some boos from the audience when Clinton’s name was mentioned.What about that profound respect for Hillary Clinton so many prominent conservatives had just discovered? Was it all a lie?
