“Walter Shapiro, writing for Salon.com, opines that reporters, including himself, have had little success in fully covering vice presidential candidates, failing to unearth some of the less desirable qualities of politicians:”
All those who just a few weeks ago exclaimed equality for women ….celebrating women…now question not only the titillating underbelly of a family’s personal life….but the V. P.’s “judgment”…for running for V.P. while her family is going through these events….HMMM…….
