Indeed they do. The majority of feminists will be voting for the Democrats. But as you know from my post, I was not referring to this majority but to the discomfitted, to the disgruntled feminists who are running away from Obama, and it's to these that Palin will appeal.

Yes, inventive use of English indeed.

This phrase though to describe fellow humans..

"trailer park trash"

really plumbs the depths.

*The chances of the USA electing its first African-American President grow stronger daily.*

Ah CJ, lets really really hope so! But don't forget, they are the
same people who voted for Dubya, so nothing would surprise me lol.
Perhaps they have learnt something, perhaps not, we'll see. I have
learnt not to trust the good judgement of the American voter :)

*"trailer park trash"
really plumbs the depths*

That's what the Americans call it, who am I to argue with their
language?

CJ, this might appeal to your sense of humour, a snip from an
article:

* In a satirical vox-pop about Mrs Palin's nomination on humorous news site The Onion, everyday
American "Scott Wise", a line cook, said: "Finally, somebody who can pull in the
Alaskan/pro-life/moose-hunting/woman vote."*

Hehe, I love it!
