"I suppose this could even mean that Sarah Palin, down the road, will end up holding the door open for Hillary Clinton. Such joy!"

I believe that a "President Palin" would be a disaster...and after a stint in the White House, her legacy as "Bush in a Dress" would serve to sour voters on future female candidates for a long time.

Their likely response to a female candidate after Palin would likely be "Sorry, tried a woman once...look how that turned out"

Palin is not only bad for women now, she could spell disaster for future women's political ambitions for years into the future.
