(I'll state now, though, that neither Obama nor Biden - and especially Biden - have been treated as "roughly" as she has been.) The complaint is that she is being treated unfairly because she is (1) a woman and (2) a conservative.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8613371064194042743.post-37126338861902930032008-09-11T22:18:00.000-07:002008-09-11T22:18:00.000-07:00Ugh, Bob Shrum.

As the President, she will have nuclear weapons aimed at her head, be the target of assassins, be constantly smeared by political enemies, ruthlessly and endlessly mocked by comedians and the general public etc. etc., just like any other President. People aren't going to hold back or play nice just because she's a woman.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
