Since N.O.W. does not support Palin should they change their organization to N.O.L.W. (National Organization for the advancement of Liberal Women)?

Palin doesn't support *women*, making her an enemy of N.O.W. Quite a lot of Conservative Women support rape and incest exceptions to any ban on abortion. And saying that community support is for "losers" isn't going to endear her to the countless Conservative Woman community service organizations. Palin opposes funding for state pre-kindergarten programs, programs which can give mothers a break from their children and also improve their children's education. She certainly dropped the ball when she insisted on "abstinence-only" sex education for her now pregnant and unwed teenage daughter. And if all that wasn't enough: "Sarah Palin has women deserting Republican camp" Sept. 4th, 2008 (http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,24291632-5012748,00.html)

No. The N.O.W. supports and promotes causes that are important to it's core membership (and most women). Since Palin does not share these ideals, they do not support her. Ironically there is a conservative version of N.O.W., the Eagle Forum, run by Phylis Schlaffley (sp?). They don't support Palin either.
