    Umm, no, it's not a sexist remark...not at all.

    I am stunned that it is presumed to be an attack on the female sex/gender. He did NOT suggest that in any way. In fact, it is a statement that could as easily been made referencing a male candidate/opponent. Many people of both genders are known to lash out/attack verbally when feeling unhappy or backed into a corner. This is really, really looking for a story where none exists and gender-baiting.
