Glad They're Taking Women Seriously

Forget war, the economy, or human rights. What really matters is the type of jewelry Hillary prefers.

From the CNN Ticker online:

A candidate's best friend?

WASHINGTON (CNN) – Diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but don't ask Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York to choose those over pearls.

"I know I'm sometimes accused of not being able to make a choice," Clinton said, laughing. "I want both."

Clinton was asked if she preferred diamonds or pearls during CNN's Democratic debate Thursday night. The first and last questions of the night were directed at her and concerned her ability to make a decision and stick with it.

Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware could be heard in the background saying that he liked diamonds better.

Wanna bet they'd never ask a male candidate that? The worst part is that this was a headline on the front page of CNN.com tonight. I smell a letter to the editor!
