I'll buy that. Maybe what we need is a good strong woman every one can like respect to start shifting those societal norms. Or maybe the sexual playoff between men and women is human nature and will never change. Either way I am at this point to give her a chance and have no problem personally with a qualified woman with whom I share beliefs.

I can say this. Ths choice does make it MORE likely that I will vote for McCain whereas a pick like Romeny or some other retread did not.
