While Chimps are much closer to humans biologically, dogs make a pretty good metaphors for humans.
For example, the male dog goes around protecting territory, pissing all over the place and obsessing about rank.
Female dogs can be very, well, "bitchy". A fascinating fact is that two female dogs, when fighting, are more likely to inflict fatal wounds than two male dogs.
While I tend to think (hope) that female politicians will tend to humanize politics, the jury is out. What we have seen so far has proven they are capable and competant, but has not given much evidence for this theory.
Lets hope it is so!
To bad "Commander in Chief" is off the air as it was fun to explore this stuff.
