Put together a list of responisbilites/accomplishments and use this to show them why you need a raise, not simply because you need to make more then your sec.

Agreed. I would also back it up with some statistics from the DOL or salary.com. I would use the sec angle only to state how your responsiblities are greater (if indeed you should know her salary) than her's and therefor your salary is not reflective of your duties.
If all else fails, get HR involved. Is this a smaller company? If so, it is not unusual for small companies to have loose compensation policies, which is translated to mean no compensation policy and salaries are all over the board.
That is the situation at my current company and I can't wait to work on that project. I've never done comp before!
