It surprises me all the time....a lady high school teacher was telling me how she was gonna vote for mccain/palin, because the thought of having a woman vicepresident was so ''revolutionary.'''

Women are a demographic majority in most areas.

I read once that women don't like those who make them think, but those who make them feel. I hope that was just a sexist quote and not reality....

The words "separation of church and state" appear nowhere in the Constitution. That's true, and O'Donnell's camp now says that's what she really meant. The phrase stemmed from a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802. He cited the language of the First Amendment and said that it built "a wall of separation between Church and State." This was not just some poetic flourish. This was one of the nation's founders and author of the Declaration of Independence explaining exactly what the First Amendment means.

I'd still rather see a sack of rocks in office before her. Why can't the right wing just find smart Rep. women to run? Is Condi to ugly for tv?

I understand the implication of the 1st amendment. Anyone who reads it knows that it literally tells the government not to infringe on anyone's religion and as such treating them equal; thus by interpretation, the showing of a preferential bias in government (say for christianity) as unconstitutional.

The wall of separation that Madison and Jefferson later discussed as being essential to that amendment is however somewhat lost by not having a clearer language. Take some of the later constitutions in Latin America for example...which literally state in the constitution as the government and church being totally separate entities of one another.

Couple to that the long history of people in office preaching their beliefs with little backlash from the press/contemporaries, and no wonder that wall's a little clouded.
