1. I'll get back to you on that when the Democratic party puts up Sarah Palin or Margaret

Thatcher in the Democratic primary.

In the meantime, if the Democratic primary is between a woman and a man, I'll be voting for the woman. The end.

And I'm not alone.

Now: cue the standard absurd argument against this, which is you name all the possible ridiculous woman candidates and put your hands on your hips and say, "you gonna vote for her? Huh? Huh?" Oh, wait, you already did that.

The Democrats have a fabulous roster of possible women candidates. Women candidates who are just as good, if not miles better than the offered male candidates. There's no reason why we can't put one up for the vote.

250 years is long enough to wait.
