CNN is making too much over NOW’s complaint that Obama’s cabinet has too few women.
What’s made up of five women, four African-Americans, three Latinos, two Republicans and two Asians, including a Nobel Prize winner?
The answer is Obama’s cabinet, and some women are not too happy over that…..
You call this news?
Since when has a woman ever been satisfied?
(Well, I shouldn’t have said “ever”; a couple of times one can see them grinning ear to ear over nothing all day long..)

In all the public discussion over titles the less frequently mentioned person who may have a major influence behind the scenes is Valerie Jarrett, co-chair of the Obama transition team and soon-to-be senior advisor to the president.
It sounds like she will be to Obama what Vernon Jordan was to Bill Clinton: someone whose opinion he trusts and equally someone whose loyalty he can count on. The “team of rivals” things is a positive step, but I am betting it will also feel good to be able to do business with someone who has not only not been a rival,but someone who has been a long-time supporter.
