OK so I'm reading at jezebel.com, an article called "Dear Pumas, or vaginas are not registered to vote" about why we women should vote for Sarah palin for President and I come to this stellar section...So vote for Swoopes 2012!
Underlined quote is from the original article, the second is Jezebel bagging on the original article...oh just go read the whole thing Wink

"Here's the difference: Sarah Palin played women's basketball. That's how she got the nickname "Sarah Barracuda." And she's had to maintain that same toughness and sensibility as she entered the world of politics-which is, after all, no less a contact sport."

Well, fuck, if that's the logic, Sheryl Swoopes 2012! She made it to the WNBA. Can the Thrilla from Wasilla top that?

Yeah, Sarah Barracuda actually got elected to a public office. Can Sheryl Swoopes top THAT?

Actually, I think Sonja Henning is more qualified. She's played for a NCAA Championship Team (Stanford in 1989-90 season), an WNBA Champion (Houston Comets in 1999), and is the only WNBA ex-player who ever got elected to a public office (Portland School Board several years ago).
