I'd rather see Pres. Dan Quayle than either of those traitorous looters. Paglia has shown her true colors with that revealing statement.
"Former cabinet secretary Elizabeth Dole’s bold GOP presidential run in 1999 was torpedoed by her too rote and chirpy Southern belle delivery, leading to her withdrawal for lack of funding"
Wow! What scintillating insight!
Paglia is nothing more than another cheerleader for looters and statists.

Ditto to you both! Paglia is a very sharp, consistent, educated, and independent thinker. Some of her premises are far off but she's still too rare a treat in the media. Independent active thinkers are damn hard to find.

exactly. I still love Paglia :)

"For example, two eminently qualified and experienced Democrats never launched presidential campaigns when they could have over the past 25 years: Senator Dianne Feinstein, with her deep knowledge of defense and intelligence issues, and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, the first female Speaker of the House of Representatives and therefore the highest-ranking woman in U.S. history. Yet a marginal Democratic Congressman like the boyish Dennis Kucinich had the ambition and moxie to mount two quixotic presidential bids in 2004 and 2008."

If those are the author's best picks, NUTS!
