The poll shows a significant reduction in the early double-digit margin O'Brien enjoyed among women voters, in part because her support among unenrolled women has fallen.I can understand this reduction in female support for O'Brien.
As a woman, I'd embarrass myself if I voted for a whiner like O'Brien.
Camps spar over Romney word choice [Hillary tries to alter English]
[O'Brien] is acting like a very touchy, very paranoid feminist. Shannon O'Brien ([aka] Mrs. R. Emmet Hayes), Hillary Rodham-Clinton, and Teresa Simões-Ferreira Heinz-Kerry have chosen to view Romney's words as an attack on the idea of women in politics.
Come to think of it, we are left to decide between two explanations for O'Brien's
choice to be offended.
- Either O'Brien really thinks Romney was attacking women.
In that case, she is paranoid, because we know that the word "unbecoming" has been applied to male behavior many times. Hillary Rodham Clinton is also fully aware that the word "unbecoming" has been applied to her (male-gendered) husband many times. - Or O'Brien is falsely accusing Romney of sexism.
Then O'Brien is guilty of libel and does not deserve to take an oath as US Senator.
I wouldn't care to vote for either a paranoid or a libeller as Senator.
O'Brien must tell all on husband's lobbying
The most prominent example of a use of the word "unbecoming" I can think of is the phrase "conduct unbecoming a gentleman" in the military. The feminists are desparate and grasping for straws to keep their female supporters on the reservation (is that sexist too, Hillary?).
