And, Spankings for Bad Grades?
A great borrowed line on this article about Harvard University appointing a woman as its new president:
Harvard set to make feminist history by naming some broad as its president for first time.
I guess that they think making a woman president for a university will encourage people to vote for a woman as president of our country, whomever she might be.

I hadn't thought of that! But could be possible. The Hillary-push is on.

AoW, this paragraph is from the linked article:
"It's a little like having a woman president of the United States," said Carol Christ, president of Smith College, a prominent women's college in western Massachusetts. "It's a very public symbol of the progress women have made in being seen as equal candidates for the highest leadership positions."
Yeah, I would say that there is a connection--besides Harvard wimping out and trying to make up to the PC crowd after its former president said something about women not achieving what men do as scientists.

It's a difficult time to be white and male, isn't it? Obama on one side and Hillary on the other. If you're lucky then maybe John Edwards will be our next President.
