Today Sununu called her an" Obama groupie." A few months back Sununu told her "to put an Obama bumper- sticker on her forehead.
Tim Pawlenty asked "if she understands English"
Most of the interviews she has conducted with Romney's surrogates have been very contentious. Can you imagine if one of the men on MSNBC behaved that way with a Romney female surrogate?
I'm not surprised they don't have respect for women or the truth. Still, CNN needs to put their foot down and demand that all of their employees on and off air be treated with respect. BTW, IMO the word "groupie", is one step away from calling her a whore. He could have said fan or whatever, but he had to pick the most demeaning term you can call a woman without being bleeped.

I'll bet she would be really ashamed of her fear of "new" ideas if she could only see into the future and realize that now, in the year 2012, we *all* have gas refrigerators!

(5,158 posts)Repuke men are afraid of women like her, so they resort to insults, knowing she has too much class to stoop to their level. It's disgusting, really.
