She is not understanding or connecting on the most basic fundamental level. She is not fulfilling or honoring her first most important responsibility-that she chose. It makes her and her motives suspect and shows a deficit of character that isn\'t erased by the mindless title "hockey mom." She is cheating the most important people to her.That is her as much as everything else that is being said. <br>4)  Applauding this "Super Mom" persona is and has been as dangerous to women as "Super Model" is to our daughters. This is not improving the world by setting up failure.<br>5) I have a maverick personality. It served me in my career-18yrs, and then again as  a full time mom-22 years. I took each job very seriously -I broke the glass ceiling-and I raised a great human being to benefit the world. I know there is no magic way to do both together- the right way.

It didn\'t work, because blacks saw that Steele did not represent their stands on issues.<br><br>Also, it renders useless McCain\'s argument that experience matters-- because Ms Palin is most obviously less experienced than Sen Biden.

Certain issues must be muted or distorted to achieve that goal.<br>Whether one believes those distortions is another matter.<br>I am inclined to believe his softening on such issues as being anti-trade is complete B.S.<br>I believe that he will favor what is probably your position.<br>	You know, I have to disagree with that position<br>My family, not myself, exports agricultural goods from this Country.<br>The business was not doing too well until we took advantage of the export market.<br>Sorry, but I don’t have enough money to support those family members because of your protectionism.<br>	I am supposed to believe that Obama is no longer anti-trade.<br>Yet, I am inclined to follow the money – just like I do with the Republicans – and it seems that unions and midwest agri-business are major contributors to the Party.<br>The growth in Citrus exports has come predominately from Asian markets.<br>I guess I should hope that they won’t punish our industry for the Country’s protectionism.<br>Hope - sounds like a good solid long term plan.<br>	What you people fail to realize is that certain people do work in exporting industries - <br>seven members of my family and about 50 seasonal employees to be exact, not including pickers.<br>We have never received the vaunted agricultural subsidies.  We will receive some money for Citrus research this year, but no direct subsidies.  <br>	We never really asked for the subsidies or the inspectors that had never seen an orange outside of a grocery store.  We thank America for that and for ignoring our industry.<br>You see, all that Government has ever brought us is hardship.<br>We received all the oversight and costly requirements of corn growers without the juicy payments.<br>So thank you!  I will thank you some more when your protectionism screws us again.  Your benevolent Government.  Finally, we will have to close this business founded in this Country in 1926.  Everything does have to end.<br>	My family members working in the business have always supported the Republicans because of trade policy.  I have the luxury of throwing my vote away because I have a nifty University job.  At least the Libertarians also support free trade.<br>	I disagree with the Republicans on many things. <br>I would have never voted for Obama because of trade issues.<br>I planned to vote Libertarian and leave it at that.<br>After reading many blogs of the Left, I have come to the conclusion that you are no better than the extreme Right.<br>That is also why I find Obama’s promise of post-partisanship to be B.S.<br>You are the base and that is not what you want, is it?<br>You want blood.<br>	So I will vote for McCain - he probably will not win – but I certainly know that Bob Barr will not win.  For my family and because I trust the Democratic Party, just like the Republican Party, to take care of their special interests. <br>	Another thing:  Do we still have a Congress in this Country?  Based upon the media coverage, one might believe we are electing a King.</div>\
