Women Pearls and Politics

I'm putting this one up early as I'll be away next week and not able to access email and such. So I read "Women, Pearls and Politics" ahead so I could have some idea, good book, I thought it was interesting in there how she talked about Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm and how Gov. Granholm talks about how she makes it all work and that she has a very supportive husband. I think a supportive spouse is essential for any and all of these very high profile/high success/power career people who have such demanding jobs. So I guess that "behind every great man there's a great woman" goes the other way too. I actually don't see how someone could hold such a position without that kind of support. I find Sarah Palin says the same things about Alaska's (former) "First Dude" Todd in that he is incredibly supportive and how it all works. I guess with the changing roles here in society or at least reading this book we hear more about the supporting husbands like these gentleman. However, you never heard much about Margaret Thatcher's husband, but it must've been the same thing from what I know of that period of history.
