I realize the whole...I find it odd and creepy, too. I realize the whole thing started as an effort to solidify a key Democratic demographic (young unmarried women) who are, understandably, concerned about access to contraception and abortion. But being told to vote with your "lady parts," or having an advertisement with a young lady engaging in double entendres about "your first time" voting, is terrible. Furthermore, it distracts from truly important and pressing issues, such as the economy. (Don't get me started on Code Pink and dressing as, er, lady parts.)<br /><br />Lest you think I'm picking on one political party, I hasten to add that I don't want any candidates mentioning "legitimate rape," pregnancy as "God's will," or anything similar. <br /><br />However, we do have to bear in mind that this is a country in which people routinely discuss personal subjects on cell phones, very loudly, in public places. Apparently nothing is off-limits any longer.Rhianon Jamesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13627163137265856251noreply@blogger.com
