Well, she's tall enough, anyway.

I've seen the promos for ABC's Commander In Chief, starring Geena Davis as America's first female president. I don't get it. The idea of a woman in the top position is hardly startling. This might have been controversial 30 or 40 years ago, but we've seen women rule other countries and hold almost every other major position here.

The forgettable Lawrence and Lee play First Monday In October, about the first female Supreme Court Justice, debuted in 1978, three years before the real thing. Perhaps ABC is rushing their show on the air to beat Hillary to the punch.
