Good "Letter to the Editor" by Craig

Dear Editor,
I was confused after reading the recent article written by Bob Bernick Jr and Lee Davidson headlined "Women gain most if Obama wins, Pelosi says". I read nothing that proved Speaker Pelosi's thesis let alone anything to do with Obama. I believe the headline should have read. "Dems think Utah women are uninformed and out of date." I read the article over 3 times to see exactly what "Women gain if Obama wins" and all I read was a few non sequiturs that Women in Utah are "behind the political curve", which I would agree with if that curve has made a very hard left. Also Sen. Ken Salazaar's (D - Colorado) opinion that Utah women "are where we (Colorado Democrats) were 10 years ago", I guess we can take comfort from the knowledge that Colorado's economy is where Utah's was at 10 years ago.

Sen. Salazaar followed that up with a word of encouragement, "if Colorado Democrats can make strides, so can Utah Democrats by electing pragmatic problem solvers." Maybe Sen. Salazzar was unaware that one of Adolph Hitler's favorite phrases to describe himself was a "pragmatic problem solver" or maybe he did. Either way Utah women should be well aware that the Democrats have targeted them to join the rest of the West in this millenium. Thank goodness for Nancy Pelosi.
