Serious question regarding debates between male candidates and female candidates.

[blondeatlast]

I watched the O'Donnell-Coons debate the other day and a little of the Reid/Angle debate. O'Donnell baited him with cheap shot comment a gentleman can't respond to; so did Angle do to Reid.

The TeaBPublicans are taking advantage of their intensely stupid, easily trained female candidates and setting them up with lines that male candidates cannot respond to fairly. The TeaBPublicans want our "guys" to take cheap shots; to their credit, they have not.

It's not just debates, either--the whole stink about Jerry Brown calling Nutmeg a whore--which fits in the context of politics is rooted in a true double-standard.

I'm a feminist, and I resent that gentlemen are subject to cheap shots while the "ladies" get off scot-free.

So I ask, how should this be handled? Let's try to keep this intelligent; you may want to call Nutmeg and the Magic Christian vile names, but their opponents can't. Let's try to help them out.
