acceptance speech

OK, two things:

You gotta admit, no matter what his bullshit on coal and nuclear power, a biracial guy, seen by most as "a black man," accepting the nomination for president of the U.S. is a pretty FREAKIN' powerful moment.

And for those 10 leftover PUMAs who think somehow that John "Hates Women's Issues" McCain of the anti-health care, anti-equal work for equal pay, anti-choice, anti-planet, anti-union, anti-public schools, pro-war, pro-outsourcing, pro-redistribution of wealth to the top .5 percent party would somehow care more about women than the Dems, McCain has thrown a sop.

True, no woman has been on a GOP presidential ticket before, but I guess it's not so historic for the GOP to be cynically manipulative. I know women are smarter than this bullshit suggests.
