Any speculation that the selection of Gov. Sarah Palin for the Republican ticket might temper radical feminism's contempt for the right can safely be put to rest. As the next Clarence Thomas of American politics, Palin embodies exactly what liberals loath even more than the white man, i.e., the articulate pro-life woman and her potential to direct the future of feminism in America. Make no mistake about it, Palin's pro-life stance, (not to mention her qualifications and looks) is the principal reason for the left's scandal-mongering tizzy. The Democrats, liberal women in particular, are petrified by her potential to remake American feminism as a conservative movement. They are old and dying off, Palin is young and taking off. This alone explains the hysteria, slander and malarkey surrounding her candidacy. For liberals, abortion remains the primordial "right" which, if all other gains are to be lost, must be defended to the death. (Talk about diabolical!) No one threatens that tenuous "right" more than Gov. Palin.
