You can't scream "they are picking on me because I am __" an run for President. I am woman and I want people who have the guts to not scream foul EVEN if what is being said is foul. You are in the kitchen! Get over it!!
The gloves should come off and whoever uses that argument should be scoffed at.
I didn't hear JFK cry because they talked about his being Catholic. He just beat the shit out of them.

You can't mention, much less scream "they are picking on me because I am black" even if they are. But you certainly can scream "they are picking on me because I am a woman" even when they're not and get away with it - at least if you are also white and Republican, as evidenced by the last two weeks.

2. You are right but I am glad that Obama is not doing that. I respect him more for it. |

He has proven that he can focus on what is important and when it has to be addressed he gives a wonderful speech like he did in his race speech.
