You know I can be objective about this stuff. He does make communication errors when he is tired, lazy, or his brain goes on slow( I agree the guy has some very unprofessional interviews...like the Stephanopoulis lazy communication thing.) I just don't think this is one of those instances. Look, everyone knows she said the thing about lipstick separating soccer moms from female pitbulls. He did use that fact. He is basically saying honey, if you wanna know what's got lipstick on it, try looking at McCain's economic plan. That is a pig(economic plan for the last 8 years) with lipstick on it. It's still a pig. He simply used a line of hers(lipstick on something,) and used it in another folksy metaphor. If anybody could of been upset, it would of been the Soccer moms(in the 1st place.) She did make a joke about them being pitbull btches with lipstick. I mean somehow people understood that to be humor. I doubt they would take it the same if a man said it. If anything was questionable about this, it's her referring to a group of women as pitbulls with something on them. He called an economic plan a pig with something on it. If anything was out of line, it was the former. I guess he was making fun of her doing that.
