And such is the dichotomy of Sarah Palin.
The polls show that white women have flocked to the McCain/Palin ticket over the last two weeks. A Newsweek Poll showed McCain ahead of Obama %57 to %37. McCain had been losing among women just the month before.
But that will certainly subside a bit as Women's groups continue a barrage on Palin that she is against Women's rights, a euphemism to mean that she is against abortion.
She is for equal pay. She symbolizes a successful working Mom who can balance a family. She is the only person promising to pay more attention to special needs children, a gift from heaven to Millions of worried Mothers.
But her pro-life stance makes her a villain of the Women's Movement, which quite obviously does not represent all women.
Below are two examples of the attacks on Palin. First, a blooper on FoxNews:
It's funny. But it shows the way that a pretty woman running for office is being demeaned. And women seem to be the biggest offenders. Suddenly, it is okay to attack a woman running for office and talk about her looks and sexual parts, because she goes against the agenda of Women's Groups aka Pro Choice groups.
Here is another example. This one is funnier, but it mocks women who are for Sarah Palin as not knowing any better.

Again, women who support Sarah Palin must be stupid is the message, It can't be that they agree with her.
Not only is it a sexist attack on Sarah Palin, but women who support her.
I know it is a comedy video, but the sarcasm is the same that is being used by Women's Groups, Columnists and the Democrats.
But here is the problem, there are more women life Sarah Palin than her attackers. Moms with family problems, a special needs child, struggling to work and care for a family, from a small town and, yes, with conservative values.
Ridicule her at your own peril. For when you do, you ridicule women all across America who will have the last laugh at he voting booths.
That is why Barack Obama and Joe Biden have been careful not to attack Sarah Palin. Their followers would be wise to follow that lead.

Polls now show Women flocking away from Palin like the plague. It was a nice 1 week bump she gave the Republican ticket, but now she's been exposed for the greedy, evangelist wingnut that she really is and all those Women have gone back to the Democratic side.
Obama/Biden - 50
McCain/Palin - 42
Don't worry though, it's "God's Plan" that the Democrats win this year, so everything will be fine.
