Ever so slightly OT, but we're past the 20 message mark

I think we're going to see more reactions like this, just entered on HuffPo, from Hillary-age female supporters. I really believe this is something that the male Republican speechwriters for this convention did not clue into. This kind of reaction is what led to the 60s feminism movement in the first place.

I'm a 61 year old white woman who has come across many Sarah Palin's in my time. You know the type, all sugary sweet, while they stab you in the back. She wreaks of ambition - not a bad quality if you are up to the task. Sorry, she just isn't. I found her speech smarmy, condescending. Kind of like an angry PTA mom at a meeting. She is clearly full of herself and I don't think her credentials make her ready for prime time. I think there is a lot more to Sarah Palin than meets the eye. Hopefully it will come out in time. I know I won't vote republican this year. I can't afford either one of them.

I will be really interested to see how Hillary goes after this next week, and trust me, she will. She is going to invoke this in her supporters. She's going to use certain turns of phrase that remind them.
