Much has been made of Obama’s “team of rivals” selection of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. But little has been said so far about what impact this prominent feminist and health care expert could have on the lives of women in other countries. But women’s rights activists say they’re extremely [...]


Report: Talk of Hillary as secretary of state is premature

By Heath Haussamen 11/19/08 8:04 AM

As I’ve already reported, there have been a number of media reports indicating that Hillary Clinton’s becoming secretary of state was likely or even a done deal. But The Politico says such talk is premature: Clinton isn’t certain she would accept the job even if Barack Obama offered it.
If true, that could be good news [...]

By Matthew Reichbach 11/18/08 6:27 PM

Yesterday we asked how New Mexico’s senior senator would vote on Sen. Joe Lieberman’s fate. It turns out Jeff Bingaman voted along with most of his peers for a partial rebuke of Lieberman — but for Lieberman to keep his gavel as Homeland Security Committee chairman.

Last chance, ladies: Get out and vote

By Kate Nelson 11/3/08 11:30 AM

Of all the depressing statistics bedeviling our nation right now, here’s one that’s easy to fix: When the polls close Tuesday night, one in three women will have failed to cast a ballot. Jane Addams and Susan B. Anthony, two of the suffragists who truly suffered through the long fight to win women’s right to vote, will be shaking their heads in shame.


Hillary wins! … in the lipstick war

By Kate Nelson 11/3/08 7:00 AM

So you’ve had enough jabber about Sarah Palin’s lipstick? Political jokes about putting lipstick on a whatever? Lipstick talk, period?
Well, Palin may have lasted until the campaign’s final moments, but in the world of retail, Hillary Clinton’s lipstick lasted longer.

Which women should rule the world (or at least the White House)?

By Kate Nelson 11/3/08 5:00 AM

Buzzflash’s Meg White has a beef with the (possibly premature) talk of a Barack Obama cabinet: Too many men’s names are being bandied about. (Sorry, Gov. Bill Richardson.)
So, they’re asking readers to submit their suggestions for the women who could rule the roosts.
Sen. Hillary Clinton? Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano? MSNBC talking head Rachel Maddow? And, [...]

In addition, McCain’s New Mexico campaign manager, Marta Kramer, confirmed in an e-mail what I already reported: McCain will also make a stop in Albuquerque on Saturday. Kramer didn’t release additional details.
