    GIVE IT A BREAK ALREADY

    More the of the same sexist bullshit! You think you're being so darn clever. From your critical description of Mrs. McCain's dress at the convention (who died and made you Project Runway's next winner?), to bashing the young woman who is expecting a baby. Like there's just no other 17 year olds in this country getting pregnant, right? I mean, where's the news in any of this.

    You didn't spend enough time on George W. Bush's antics when he was "youngster" at the age of 40, (before he was "selected") so now I guess you think you're doing the voters a great service here, eh?

    After the collective sexist, female bashing of Hillary Clinton for over a year, I'm sick of guys like you - and some of your more ignorant female reports too. You think you're scoring points for Obama with this crap? Think again, bucko!
