Any woman, or just Clinton

Much has been written this election cycle about feminism, sexism, etc. as they relate to Senator Clinton's historic run for the Democratic nomination - and a lot of women are very upset that Mrs. Clinton didn't win, as if she was the last great hope for a woman to become President. I just want to remind everyone that we Dems have several female governors (Ruth Ann Minner,Jennifer Granholm, Janet Napolitano, Kathleen Sebelius, Kathleen Blanco, Christine Gregoire), not to mention Nancy Pelosi and other female members of Congress who are more than capable of becoming President. Those that say they won't vote for Obama because of perceived sexism, and that he must pick Clinton as his VP, what about the women I just named? Would any of them do?
