Sarah Palin accepted the Vice Presidential nomination last night, making her the first woman to appear on the GOP ticket. But on the day of her acceptance speech, not all women were proud. Code Pink, an anti war and women’s rights group, protested Palin’s nomination at the RNC entrance.

Meanwhile the convention center filled with women that hand painted “Power Palin” signs. During her speech, they jumped to laughter then cheers after Palin noted the only difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull was lipstick. And when Palin mentioned the war, it was only in reference to her son’s Iraq deployment next week. 

Last night American women saw a small town girl, a pro-life advocate, a mother willing to cope with a son at war. Last night American women saw inexperience, a lack of compassion for reproductive rights, and a mother who’d watch her son risk his life in an unjust war. 

The question that will make or break the McCain-Palin ticket: Which group of women better represent America?
