Women


Cyd Charisse died this morning - she was 86. What a great dancer she was and what gorgeous legs she had! This photo is from Singin' in the Rain.

Anna Quindlen starts off her column in this week's Newsweek (June 23, 2008) as follows:

Senator? Senator! I have gray hair and crow's feet and a lifetime of being underestimated. I'm nobody's sweetie. And I vote.

She says that the idea that women who supported Hillary Clinton (as Quindlen did) would seriously consider voting for John McCain in protest is insane. These people have done everything they could prevent any legislation furthering women's rights. But, as she says, the Democrats and Barack Obama cannot ignore women or take them for granted. This column should be required reading by everybody in Obama's campaign - especially Obama!
