The New Women Politician

I usually give my wife grief that women are not competent in different areas such as driving a car. However, I am really glad to see what appears to me to be a new breed of women politicians, one that don't fit the complete out of touch feminist mold (e.g. Barbara Boxer, Nancy Pelosi). I am really glad to see Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina in the race. They are seasoned corporate executives that have actually managed things. Meg as CEO of E-Bay is a proven leader. You can argue that Carly had a tumultuous run at HP, but she did orchestrate a number of positive endeavors such as acquiring Compaq which has proven to be a good move. We need good leaders from California. Can that state actually get any worse?
