THE GENDER GAP BEGINS AT HOME. Via The Atlantic's Marc Ambinder, this is hilarious:
After a brief stop at a Little League game in Beranek Park, where Emma Claire mentioned that her softball team's name is the Hawkeyes, the family ventured on to Tipton to rejoin their favorite candidate. Oh, but that's not entirely accurate -- or at least it wasn't on Saturday. When the Edwardses visited the Cedar County Democrats' tent, Mrs. Edwards asked her daughter which of the presidential candidates she liked best.I blame those "I Can Be President" buttons the HRC campaign has been handing out to girls.Did she point to dear old Dad? No, she pointed to Hillary Clinton. One strange political event, indeed.
