Just like most men are ashamed of stupid men, why would you not expect women to do the same? I would hope you wouldn't defend men who aren't worth defending. Falling on the sword for Al Gore or Barack Obama lately? No.. just because someone is the same sex doesn't mean you should support them if you don't think they are qualified.

If anything, it shows women are worth supporting. The fact they would ridicule one of their own who they don't think is worthy. That they aren't pull a Black Protectionism (see Michael Vick for an example), but actually taking the time to judge the candidate on something other than her sex, suggests their opinion is actually worth something.

Because the attacks were not justified and in cases sexist. And the NOW did what. nada.

Not justified? She's an embarrassment. Why would they want her to represent them? They supported Clinton and her pant suits without problem. The fact is, she's not worthy of their support, good for them for judging her on something other than her sex. Good for them for not being blind to who or what she is, just because they are women, but actually taking the time to judge her based on merits.

I'd be ashamed if men just voted for men over women for no other reason than their sex.

So all women should think like entitlement-minded Democrats.

Hmm, got it. Do you think the same way about blacks? How exactly can you generalize that Palin doesn't represent any woman?

Blacks should stick up for blacks.
Asians should stick up for Asians
Hispanics. ........
Jews should stick up for other Jews
Christians should stick up for Christians
Muslims...........
Mostly this happens, except with women, they are more likely to throw each other under the bus. IMO


We should all stick up for each other when appropriate, but usually does not happen.

Just saying, what I observe.

WHEN APPROPRIATE

http://www.redstate.com/erick/2010/12/15...cain-2012/

Quote:In our 2012 brackets, Herman Cain reigns supreme as the reader pick for 2012.

Now, to be fair, he also has a huge twitter following and microphone to drive people to vote. He garnered 8,900 votes to Governor Sarah Palin’s 8100 votes. Mighty impressive.

Herman Cain is the former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, a radio show host on WSB in Atlanta, and, judging by RedState Readers, the Republican Party’s 2012 Nominee for President of the United States.

Quote: I am humbled to learn that RedState readers chose me out of 16 qualified candidates as their top choice for a 2012 GOP presidential nominee. As I prayerfully consider the ways I can best serve our country, I remain encouraged by your kind words and grateful for your continued support. Together, WE THE PEOPLE can take o...ur country back! I promise to keep fighting for freedom and ask that you do too!

Why should blacks stick up for blacks that they are embarrassed by? That's just stupid. Just because someone is the same race or gender as you doesn't mean you should support them.

What part of WHEN APPROPRIATE do you not understand. Read, son.

Exactly, but why would one consider it appropriate to stand up for Sarah Palin? They think she's a joke.. as many people do. Just because she's a woman politician doesn't make her worthy of being supported. There are plenty of women out there that they feel much better about, and they clearly support them. I'm glad they are picking and choosing which women to support, that's the way it should be.

Of course, Ron Paul wasn't included in this poll because Erick knows he'd win.

How much did he pull last time? Yeah.

More than Cain did.

Erick has a long and rich tradition and censoring if not outright slandering Ron Paul. It has nothing to do with the result ... it has everything to do with the message.

Ron Paul will never be elected President of the United States.

And Jacksonville State will never beat Ole Miss.
And James Madison will never beat Virginia Tech.
And Appalachian State will never beat Michigan.
And Centre College will never beat Harvard.
And Carnegie Tech will never beat Notre Dame.
And Truman can't possibly defeat Dewey.
And no way Barry Goldwater beats Rockefeller for the nomination.
Certainly no way that Reagan actor clown from California and his voodoo economics beat Bush for the nomination.

Let's just inform you of all the races countrywide and have you hand down judgment to us feeble minded people.

Tell ya what, Palin will get elected before Paul.

...and I think we both know she's unelectable.

Palin does bring them out, just look at this thread. I just don't understand why they don't ignore her, but feel they have to respond. Classic.

Bah. Greta left the bash Dubya carrot dangling out there and he didn't take it.

Until I hear Cain repudiate Dubya, I cannot take him seriously.

(And he's just as bad a public speaker as Ron Paul is, but at least every once in awhile it clicks and Paul delivers a gem line.)

He won't talk bad about a person, especially in a public forum, so you're not going to get what you want.

He's got a pretty successful radio show here in ATL. Pretty sure there's some public speaking that goes along with that.

Bush isn't in office. Hasn't been since 20Jan09. Why in the hell would Herman bash someone that isn't even in politics anymore? That's what Democrats do. You're not a Democrat, are you GTS?

Herman had about 5 minutes. He wasn't going to waste it talking about Bush. Who the ---- would?

BTW:

"We don't have a revenue problem in D.C., we have a SPENDING problem in D.C."

That's a line I've used, and it's credited to him. Paul is a lightweight when it comes to business compared to Cain. PERIOD.
