October 22, 2005 -- "Commander in Chief" starring Geena Davis as a woman president is one of TV's top shows, but 28 percent of Americans say they're not likely to vote to put any real-life woman in the Oval Office. Men, especially older men, are least receptive 36 percent of men over 45 turn thumbs down on a woman president while women under 45 (41 percent) are most enthusiastic, according to a new Marist/WNBC poll yesterday .

I am perfectly receptive to a woman president. Just not one who gets there because she is a woman.
Geena Davis is a liberal whore. That's what men won't vote for. They'd vote for a strong, conservative, attractive woman. Not some pig like Hillary.
Exactly.
It is ignorant and downright scary to equate a Hollywood-scripted TV show to the actual role of President. Reminds me of when Hannity interviews people on the street and they can't name a member of the Supreme Court and yet they are eligible to vote.
That makes Miss Condi--who grew up by "baptism-of-fire" during the Segregation days--a TRUE leader and Strong Force that the GOP just HAS TO nominate fro President '08.
They concocted this tv show to enhance Hillary's chances. It is not going to work, but just imagine the time, effort and money they are devoting to it. How about a tv show with a senator from the South or a congressman from the Midwest fighting the good conservative fight? Think they'll try something like that anytime soon? We don't need Hollywood to elect the next Republican president, as long at he or she is a conservative.
From before the elections till today, I have not met one hard-core democrat male that would vote for Hillary... they are vehemently against it.
Might not be as ignorant as it seems... since three of her people are directly involved. We already knew the MSM pushes the lib agenda.
I meant in terms of viewers believing what they see and equating it to actual life but I know what you mean, too, that these people behind the show can manipulate some voters.

I still cannot believe that Snoozer is one of the top rated shows! Someone is manipulating the ratings numbers.
but I have yet to see a woman that does not get soft when confronted with an emotional decision.>>>>>>>>>>>
Many women have told me the same thing and have said that they would never vote for a woman. Women are the majority of voters and they decide who will be President, I don't believe women are ready for a woman in the oval office.
The radio station I listen to asked listeners to call in and say whether or not they'd vote for a woman president. Female after female called in and said, "I think all presidents should be female from now on because a woman president would talk things out instead of resorting to violence and we would never, ever go to war again!"
Therefore, I'm inclined to agree with your comments. (Then again, this IS California!)
My position is that a candidate must be a certifiable lunatic or a narcissistic egomaniac to aspire to the position. Neither charrcertistic seem appropriate for a President.

PS I don't know where GW stands, I thought for a while he may have been the "real deal", but he's flubbed the dub too many times of late to be that. Spending like a drunken sailor w/ a three day pass while ignoring border security are just two of my gripes and now the dark horse candidate for the SC is just too much. Maybe Karl is off his feed.
Condi Rice may be an exception albeit she isn't a pol and she doesn't seem to be running for anything.
While probably a whole lot of male politicians fall in that category too, I think many don't -- especially the conservative ones starting with Dubya and going down the list Delay, Coburn, Santorum, Frist.
I think most of these guys would be happier in private life.
Dr. Rice as Prez would be just like Harriet for the Supremes. We don't know where she stands really, just that as prez she should start to reverse the poor GOP black vote. I agree with the guy who states that women get soft when the going gets tough. Dr. Rice is a great Sec of State.
Ah, nice picture of the "gorgeous intern," Chandra.
