I'd be furious if I was chosen as THE CANDIDATE, then protected
like I was a fragile little girl!

I've been watching & listening to this silliness about Sarah for almost 5 days. When I listened to her acceptance speech, I had the presence of mind to realize that she was speaking to the RW choir at that convention, and although she seemed like a spoiled brat to me, I figured she deserved a few days to prove herself to the American voters.

THEN I hear that the Pubs are protecting her from that evil media! They apparently didn't vet her, but they don't want anyone else to do it either!

I entered the workforce back in 1962! I had to fight for every damn success I got, and I was determined that I was going to be viewed as a competent employee, and NOT some girl who had to be protected from the evil business world and kept as the little secretary or bookkeeper who always remained in the background!

What's wrong with this mooseburger dipstick? If she really IS as great as they claim, why the hell isn't SHE telling her bosses, get the hell out of my way, I can handle it!

1. You wouldn't be if you were an opportunistic piece of shit willing
to sell self-respect for power.

2. Yes, how "sexist" is that? If I had to be protected from the big bad wolf, then I'm not up to the
job.

3. They absolutely did not pick someone who could
hit the ground running in this campaign. That's the problem. She's not fit for the VP position. If she was a good pick, they wouldn't be coaching her right now. She's not mad because she knows it too. I think we'll see a personality change when she returns to the campaign. I'm sure they also want to keep her under wraps until they can quash some of the nasty deeds in her history.

6. I'd want to be protected, cause I'm no more qualified to run for VP than she is
;-)
