Hillary Clinton Watch: Hillary Supporters Now Defending Sarah Palin Against Media Bias
Womencount.org
Former Clinton adviser Howard Wolfson is dismissing any notion the Obama campaign would dispatch Clinton to take on Palin, as much as he thinks some people would revel in seeing the two strong women butt heads.
“Don’t hold your breath,” he wrote in his New Republic blog. “Clinton-Palin might drive ratings and sell magazines, but it wouldn’t be good for the Democratic Party, or the cause of women’s rights. Some might enjoy the spectacle, but don’t expect Hillary Clinton to play along.”
Now, Hillary backers are speaking out for Alaska Governor and GOP Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin.
The leaders of a women’s political organization that launched earlier this year to support Hillary Clinton are speaking out against what they say are examples of media sexism toward Sarah Palin and urging members to tell the press corps “to back off.”
WomenCount, a group co-founded by top Hillary fundraiser Susie Tompkins Buell, posted a lengthy item on their blog decrying questions over whether Palin can, as a mother of five, juggle her family responsibilities and still be vice president.
“The very notion that Sarah Palin should not have accepted this nomination because she is a mother with demanding challenges underscores just how far we have to go,” wrote Rosemary Camposano, the group’s communications director.
She added: “It will be good for America to watch Sarah Palin on the campaign trail – bouncing from parenting to politics. That’s how most women function – multi-tasking, leaning on friends and family, and waking up each morning and doing it all again.”
The Clinton Cabal are alive and well undermining the Obama campaign. Look for a Bill or Hillary gaffe who will further hurt Team Obama and the Democrats who showed them no love during the primary campaign.

The suffragettes gave women voices and choices!
Read this for your daughters!
Senator Clinton and Governor Palin are proof that women can and do diverge on important issues.
Even on the question of whether women should vote!
Most people are totally in the dark about HOW the suffragettes won votes for women, and what life was REALLY like for women before they did.
Suffragettes were opposed by many women who were what was known as ‘anti.’
The most influential ‘anti’ lived in the White House. First Lady Edith Wilson was a Washington widow who married President Wilson in 1915, after the death of his pro-suffrage wife.
The First Lady’s role in Wilson’s decision to jail and torture Alice Paul and hundreds of other suffragettes will never be fully known, but she was outraged that these women picketed her husband’s White House.
I’d like to share a women’s history learning opportunity…
“The Privilege of Voting” is a new free e-mail series that follows eight great women from 1912 – 1920 to reveal ALL that happened to set the stage for women to win the vote.
It’s a real-life soap opera! And it’s ALL true!
Powerful suffragettes Alice Paul and Emmeline Pankhurst are featured, along with TWO gorgeous presidential mistresses, First Lady Edith Wilson, Edith Wharton, Isadora Duncan and Alice Roosevelt.
There are tons of heartache on the rocky road to the ballot box, but in the end, women WIN!
Thanks to the suffragettes, women have voices and choices!
Exciting, sequential episodes are great to read on coffeebreaks, or anytime.

Dear readers,
Why is it that the bleeding hearts are saying that her children will suffer, or that a wife and Mother and Wife of a good supportive husband and father is somehow not entitled, capable of being a great VP? It seems that the screaming Me,Me’s are contradicting themselves. Most of our Male elected officials have had large families, some small! I don’t see the reasons for the judgemental dicotomy, surprisingly by mostly qoute “liberated american women”.
Could it be that they have a buried, hidden agenda????

The mainstream media has not even touched any thing about the Obamas and here is something the media should investigate. Where was Michelle Obama during 9-11 Memorial? Michelle Obama wanted to send poor people to clinics instead of her hospital when they went to her hosiptal’s emergency room. How about inveistigating why Obama’s Chicago had more murders and killings than death of soliders in Iraq and Afghanistan this summer? Why did radical Islamist Khalid Al-Monsour asked civil rights leader, Percy Sutton, to write a letter for Obama so he could get into Harvad Law? Al-Monsour is paid by rich Saudis. How about finding out how only Barack Obama knew Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, terrorist bombers and killers of policemen? Why Barack Obama, who has only been in office for less than four years got the 2nd most money for failed financial insitutions Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, that we the taxpayers, now have to bail out? How about investigating Communist Frank Marshall’s association with Barack Obama, during a time when the Soviet Union wanted to destroy the U.S.? How about invesitgating how Obamanauts have tried to block any debate on WGN Radio in Chicago? How about the lawsuit that was filed by a Democrat against Obama? How did Obama get into Pakistan when he was a college student when no American could get in that country? How about the murder of Donald Young, the Gay Choir master at Obama’s church? and so much more…
