Hillary voters

When John McCain and Sarah Palin campaigned in Virginia yesterday, Lynett Long, a former Hillary supporter warmed up the crowd that awaited their arrival.

Before McCain and Palin arrived, Lynett Long, a former Hillary Clinton supporter delivered a full-throated feminist endorsement of the McCain-Palin ticket. She argued that it's shameful so few women are represented in government and then trained her sights on Barack Obama. In response to Obama's "lipstick on a pig" jab yesterday, Long said, "Well, Mr. Obama--MISTER Obama--calling girls names is something you do in fifth grade and I don't want a fifth-grader running my country."
