You can't have it both ways! If you say you're a pit bull and qualified to stand in the ring and fight with the big boys, then you've got to be willing to take big boy punches. As a woman, I'm truly embarrassed that THIS is the first 'woman' (not withstanding Geradine Ferraro] chosen by McCain to supposedly represent me as Vice President of the United States. An airhead! What a slap in the face to ALL women! I read Joe Biden's facial expresssions as 'disgust and contempt' because she actually showed such little true knowledge of the subject matter, he seemed to find it hard to even dignify her tactics!

She's saying that, although she's a woman seeking a position of power, we shouldn't be afraid of her because she's not really challenging the alpha men.
