A surprising poll

Okay, it's a poll, and you know what I think of polls, but if it's even anywhere near accurate, I'm surprised.
More than six in 10 voters believe the United States is ready for a woman president in 2008 and 53 percent of the voters think Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a New York Democrat, should try for the job, a nationwide poll has found.

The poll, conducted by the Siena College Research Institute and sponsored by the Hearst Newspapers, found that 81 percent of voters surveyed would vote for a woman for president; 62 percent said the country is ready for a woman president; and 67 percent said a female president would be better than a male chief executive in handling domestic issues.

I'm quite sure it wouldn't poll that way if you were limiting respondents to the state of Missouri. Or Virginia.

Anyway, I would be no more happy to choose between Condi and Hillary than I was to choose between Butthead and Beavis.

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
