Letters to the Editor

Drivel
What a crappy post. Ms. Traister read an awful lot into Edwards' comment there, which is just fine if she wanted to post a personal blog entry about it, but what I just read doesn't even come near the (admittedly low) standards of journalism that I expect from Broadsheet.
Does Broadsheet have editors? Or is it just type-and-click?
As for the "issue"--honestly, I tend to agree with the notion that someone who has strong emotional reactions to a question from the media MAY NOT be the best-suited person to become POTUS.
This isn't sexist, at least in my case. I have grave concerns (far more severe than any I have about Clinton) about McCain in this regard. Despite the fact that I hate McCain the least amongst the Republican candidates, I just can't tolerate the idea of that guy being CinC of the US military.
That's a real point to consider.
On the odd historical footnote, crying in a public speech seemed to help Nixon out a LOT. Maybe Clinton shouldn't worry about showing her feelings as much as she seems to.
