I am wondering how more hypocritical McCain can get. Since he doesn't support equal pay for equal work, maybe that's why he picked a woman to be his potential VP. I mean, he can offer her less money for the job than Romney with a sound conscious. Further, McCain doesn't even have a section on women's issues on his website. Barack Obama's is here: http://my.barackobama.com/ page/content/womenissues
Obviously McCain thinks women are so stupid that we're now going to vote for him even though he and his running mate have very anti-woman policies. The audacity of this candidate is not surprising. He ditched his first wife, who had a horrible car wreck that left her disfigured, even though she stood by him during his years as a POW because he wanted to play around. Then he finally married into money, which enabled him to rise to the power he has today because of her family's connections with the Reagan's.
Well all if this pandering doesn't fool this woman.

I too noticed just yesterday that McCain doesn't have anything to say about women's rights on his website. In fact, he doesn't have a whole lot to say about many issues there (what are there, like, ten total on his site?), whereas Obama has pretty much every issue you could possibly want to know his position on up on his site.
Oh wait, McCain does have a section on the Space Program, while Obama just has a general Technology issue section. I guess McCain's got Obama there.
