And Obama's prior usage of it. Regardless of what Senator Palin said last week, Senator Obama, AND McCain have used similar phrasings in the past, and Obama is not allowing his opponents to define what he can and cannot say on this issue. Now people not the usage of the cliche in the first place, but if you want to provide more aid in the overall fight of this election, it should also be said in the same breath that there is little daylight between the candidates on this issue, and MANY more distinctions on issues important to women.

2. That's just it--they're trying to box him in on what he can and can't say, trying

to psych him out by screaming SEXISM at words and phrases that are commonly used. Fuck that shit, I hope Obama doesn't fall for it.

Not sure of the point (oink oink) but it sure makes me laugh at the thought.
