Slog - Comments on Hillary Clinton on McCain-Palin http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/10/hillary_clinton_on_mccainpalin Way back in August, I wondered when Hillary Clinton was going to offer a pointed feminist critique of Sarah Palin. She still hasn't, but she got a little closer to one today at the 8th Annual Eleanor Roosevelt Legacy Committee Luncheon in New York. Excerpts of Clinton's remarks, just distributed by her press people: I come today with a very clear, unequivocal message. We are facing extremely difficult times in New York and America. It will be challenging for our nation and our state to navigate through these unchartered waters. We will need leaders who will understand what it takes...

It should. Somewhere in the opposite political hemisphere right meets left. That is where Sarah Palin resides.

Palin = Stalin.

Whether it is having control and choice over the most intimate and personal decisions in our lives. Barack Obama is for it. John McCain is against it.

Whether it is expanding Family and Medical Leave so that more people – men and women – can balance family and work in those difficult times when you’re under so much pressure. It needs to be expanded and protected. Barack Obama is for it. John McCain is against it.

Whether it is universal health care. Quality, affordable health care for every single American. Barack Obama is for it and John McCain is against it.

And whether it is a Supreme Court that will protect our rights and side with people who are disadvantaged who are disempowered or not. Barack Obama will appoint justices who will get back on the side of the constitution and our people and John McCain will not.

Except for the Supreme Court part, you can substitute the names Gregoire for Obama and Rossi for McCain, and exactly the same comparison applies to the Governor's race here in WA.

I really fail to care what Hillary thinks.

She's really going above and beyond the call for a primary competitor, even if I don't like how she chose to do things during the primary itself.

I hope she ends up with a cabinet post (or at least an offer of one).

Then the specter of drilling in ANWR wouldn't have to haunt us anymore, and that might impel us to get busy powering our economy with wind and solar. Not to mention getting rid of a mostly Republican-leaning state.
