how we elected Barack Obama:

“Some day we’ll have some really charismatic woman who gets people all excited, and it doesn’t matter that she’s only been in the senate for two years and that we don’t know much about her except her story."

The NYT has very few female columnists. And the U.S. has very few female comedians. Gail Collins combines the two roles with grace and aplomb.

(Are you sure you're not mixing her up with Maureen Dowd?)

I suppose a simple, "No, I just don't like her", with an explanation of why you don't like her, would have been too polite, too rational, and too productive. We can't have politeness and civility after all, especially when we have anonymity protecting us and allowing us to be as nasty as possible to as many people as possible.
