I feel the same about her as I do anyone who prematurely accepts a promotion; she is too selfish (or foolish) to realize her lack of experience and knowledge will be a detriment to both her reputation, and her employer's well-being. She would have been better off to spend several more years in development, working her way out of Alaska into a less rural/more diverse area. She's a plastic hammer, a prop, a cute tool.
I like her glasses. 😛

Originally posted by SJ247She's a hottie. That shouldn't be disqualifying. If she were a democrat and the same things were being said about her, the "feminists" would be going after her detractors with pitchforks and torches. I'm sick of the double standard.

Originally posted by SJ247Subtract the nice glasses, and couldn't you say much of the same about Hillary. A short-term Senator, who really only got her Senate job by riding on her husband's coattails in an extremely liberal state. Couldn't have been elected as dog-catcher without that, and now wants to parlay that meager qualification into a presidency. Has set the feminist movement back 50 years, etc., etc.

If the Republicans had made arguments like that against Hillary the outcry would have been apocalyptic. Where's the outrage among feminists?

You're acting as if she needs softer treatment than the average run-of-the-mill politician. That is the double standard.
