End the sexist treatment of Sara Palin!

Great article from a female journalist today.

I call upon the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower who will wilt at any moment.

This woman is from Alaska for crying out loud. She is strong, she is tough, she is confident. And you claim she is ready to be one heartbeat away from the presidency. If that is the case, then end this chauvinistic treatment of her now. Allow her to show her stuff.

I agree, let her show her stuff! Or maybe the problem is that the McCain camp doesn't want her to show her stuff, because when she showed her stuff in the ABC/Gibson article, it wasn't nearly as high as the bar was set for her. I think the McCain camp knows the more she's kept away from the media the more they can shelter her false image and the less likely she is to screw up the picture they've painted of her. But back to the CNN article, I do agree it is sexist and I think she should be scrutinized just as any other VP candidate should be, male or female.
