Young GOP women to Elle magazine: Don't call us 'Baby Palins'
The article, which dubs the aforementioned women "Baby Palins," says the interviewed females "share almost every goal of feminism" and "want to be -- and in many cases, already believe themselves to be --' 'empowered': educationally, financially, sexually. But they resist any effort to put advancing their fellow women front and center."
"While an interesting read, this article turns out to be less a commentary on conservative women and more an example of how conservative women are viewed by women on the left. To them, we are all 'Baby Palins,'" Agness writes, adding that many of the interviewed women immersed themselves into politics long before Palin's name appeared on the 2008 Republican ticket.
A University of Virginia law graduate, Agness herself started NeW four years before Palin made national news headlines.
