Quotable...

"Sarah Palin abused her own gender by dragging all her kids around as stage props. Came off like an arrogant ignoramus in interviews. Refused to do anything about that mess of a hairdo. Refused to utilize the coaching that was provided for her...The winkie, wiggle that she used during the VP debate was just south of slutty." Sandra McCartt

I think it must be de rigeur these days to put your young children out front and center - I mean - who takes 4 months to find/pick a family dog?
"Sasha and Malia, I love you both more than you can imagine," Obama said in his Election Night address. "You have earned the puppy that is coming with us."
