If feminists are for equality, why has NOW (Nat.Organ. for Woman) denied support to a female VP nomination?

Question

Kim Gandy has blatantly displayed her sexism and surprisingly against another women for not towing the party line, that is the "liberal feminist doctrine), how is it possible for an organization to ridicule a women for achieving and demonstrating what feminists have always claimed. That they "NOW" represents all women and promote women to be successful. Is this not hypocrisy again on the part of NOW.

Does this not demonstrate that NOW is more of a political organization than a pretend women's rights movement ?

Statement of NOW PAC Chair Kim Gandy on the Selection of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s Vice Presidential Pick

Sen. John McCain’s choice of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate is a cynical effort to appeal to disappointed Hillary Clinton voters and get them to vote, ultimately, against their own self-interest.""

Answer 1

Palin doesn't toe the anti-male feminist party line, so she's the enemy of feminists, even if she calls herself a feminist.

Answer 2

Because NOW is only in favor of LIBERAL women....  the rest of the women can take a hike as far as they are concerned.

And Wild Orchid, what is so anti-woman about valuing human life?  What if that unborn baby is a female?  Does she have no "women's rights"?  Also what does Creationism have to do with anti-woman?

Answer 3

No self-respecting feminists would support Palin. She has anti-woman policies. She wants to illegalize abortion, even in the case of rape or incest, and teach Creationism in schools. And she's also very conservative on s*x education. Her policies are anti-woman, so why would feminists support her?

Answer 4

Feminism is just about equality. It's about women having the right/ability to do whatever they want without discrimination.  

Answer 5

Because a rational person votes by issues, not by gender. I won't vote for somebody I disagree with just because they're the same s*x.
