    Liz, I agree!

    I find it odd that we are willing to put our faith in a male president for four years....essentially, just waiting to see what they do (as they promise), but, when it comes to a woman, there are just too many "unknowns" for most of us to be comfortable.

    Ah, sexism. Alive and well!

    Not in my mind, thank you very much. Trust me, I was raised in a very equal opportunity household. I just said I wouldn't vote for someone just because she was a woman. I didn't say I didn't want to change genders in the White House, dagnabbit, what I meant, and mean is that gender has no role in my voting choice.

    I don't care if you are male or female, gay, bi or straight, black, white, green or plaid. What matters to me is your platform, ideas, ability, integritry, and worthiness for the task at hand.

    Ah, but we aren't putting our faith in them just to see what a MAN will do. We put our faith in them because of what we hope that individual will do. It was posted that we should vote for a woman just to see what would happen... it is not sexist to insist we will not vote for a candidate just out of curiousity toawrds how their sex organs will affect the office.

    The point was clearly made that those of us who disagreed with the statement thought that the individual in question for an office was a much bigger consideration that their plumbing.
