Even as a Republican I was pleased when Ferraro was named because I thought it was about time. Hillary showed amazing strength throughout a grueling campaign fought well against a media darling. It’s all political and someone as astute as you should not be surprised by any of it. I think Palin will poll equally well with conservatives of both sexes because of her “frontier spirit”. This should really make for an interesting campaign with the two old guys and the two young people. Let the games begin!
