1. I find the stories of the women in Obama's life absolutely fascinating.
I wish the MSM would do more on them.

3. Yeah, Don't Count On The Media

I wish Obama would talk more about the women in his life. Some macho men and women may think it overly sentimental, but those types probably wouldn't vote for him anyway.

On the other hand, I think Obama is doing quite well with women voters. Some may have been intrigued by Palin at first, but now that they have seen her views on what are typically thought of as "women's issues" andng how she performed in her interviews, no rational progressive (woman) would vote McCain/Palin

5. Yeah our media would rather tell us the Bill Ayers story
rather than the story of the fascinating women who shaped our next President.

4. It was a quick story.

but they showed all the clips where Obama talks about his Grandmother
then they showed a commercial she did for him in Hawii
it was short but sweet
