Ferraro Feeds Identity Politics [Kathryn Jean Lopez]From Fox: GERALDINE FERRARO: It's going to be a very interesting campaign. I must say that several months ago I said that it would be great if there was a woman on the ticket, that I felt that John McCain would have to pick someone, especially if Hillary was the nominee, but without Hillary being the nominee it's really quite equally as important, because people are looking for a historic campaign, and I think this might do it. There are a lot of women who are disaffected by how Hillary was treated by the media, by how she was treated by the Obama campaign, by how she was treated by the Democratic National Committee, Howard Dean not speaking up when sexism raised its ugly head in the media. (Inaudible)

Because, after all, having a black and a women vying for the Democratic presidential nomination has been done so many times before.
In other words, WHEN THE FUCK ARE WE GOING TO GROW UP ?!!! In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
