Dana, the view of GOP women is probably a reflection of the OLD MEN' that run the party and their bigoted out of date beliefs and ideas.
Just maybe?

I wonder why women treat each other like that? says Perino. Really? Does that rule apply to men? For example does everyone of the same gender have to stand up for each other and put up with any craziness that someone with similar genitalia spews? I would be completely supportive of Palin, as a working mom/grandma, governor, mom of special needs kid, if she didn't stand for the complete opposite of every thing I believe, especially about women's health issues. I guess I'm just a traitor to my gender.

Sorry N ofCA but you are wrong. The group of women who freed us were of the sort like Susan B Anthony who was very conservative. All liberal women gave us was abortion and men who thought it was ok to walk away from their families.
Most conservative women are easy to pick out in a crowd they are the attractive ones dressed with everything covered and have a very high self respect. Everyhing tht liberl women aren't

That first comment is about as superficial and generalized a comment as a person could possibly come up with. "Hollywood liberal" women = drug addict psychos whereas "Republican women" = reality-based and hardworking successful types. What a shallow analysis. Liberal women come up lacking? Liberal women freed women!

Agree with Perino to a degree. But, think the real reason that many in Hollywood (certainly not all) women detest Republican women is that when one measures the value set and true abilities of the two groups, the Hollywood liberal set certainly comes up lacking. For instance, Gov Palin is a Mom, a wife, a Governor, and in all candor, very attractive. She is not going into rehab or seeing a publicized shrink for self induced trauma on a regular basis. The liberal Hollywood crowd has a real problem with folks who make it the hard way -- working and succeeding without "MAKE BELIEVE"!!
