Voting For Litl'O

David Corn: "...My hunch is that the passions--and acrimony--will cool down in the months ahead. But it's clear that there's been a messy patch of bad feelings generated on both sides of the black-versus-woman Democratic contest. (The Post recently reported on the blatant racism encountered by Obama campaign workers on the ground.) But these Democratic women who are disappointed that HRC will not become the breaker of the ultimate glass ceiling are going t have to get over it. The obvious point is, do they want to vote for a guy who will appoint Supreme Court justices likely to overturn Roe v. Wade, who recently voted against a bill that would remove restrictions on a woman's right to bring an equal pay lawsuit, and who will keep the Iraq war going and going and going?"

Uh, won't those Supreme Court nominees have to be approved by a Democratic Congress? Roe Fear will not scare women into supporting Obama. McCain has never betrayed his principles concerning women-- everyone knows he is a sexist. Obama pretends he is not, and that, Mr. Corn, is significant to people of a certain gender.
