Re: I don't think the public cares (2.00 / 1)

I don't think they are saying no other woman is qualified.

What is being said is that choosing another woman -- as if just choosing any woman would placate Hillary supporters -- is what would make those supporters angry.

So, I think you're reading something into this that isn't there.

Seems kinda self-centered (none / 0)

I don't think placating Clinton's supporters at this point is on the agenda. The half of a tenth of a percent of "Clinton supporters" out there who are so myopic to think that the VP choice has anything to do with Clinton being a woman and who will go McCain or stay home if not appeased... them we can afford to lose.

In this avalanche, the pebbles get to vote.

Choosing a token candidate (none / 0)

would be collosally stupid.

Clark or Sebelius, please!

His head is bowed. He thinks of men and kings. Yea, when the sick world cries, how can he sleep?

I agree. It certainly could and likely would be potrayed as a clumsy attemp to placate Clinton backers. I just don't think Sebelius is ready for prime time yet, her decent track record in Kansas notwithstanding

correct.

besides, 18M voted for HRC, about 7x the amount of people who lives in kansas.
