Wittman for Congress makes sexist remarks about female opponent, Krystal Ball.
It's opening paragraph states...
Recently, a spokesperson for Congressman Rob Wittman of the 1st District of Virginia made a controversial statement about his opponent, Krystal Ball. In referring to Mrs. Ball, the Wittman campaign described her as “cute” stating, “As cute as our opponent may think she is…”
That headline is the biggest load of Cow Manure in Virginia. No sensible person would think that that comment had ANYTHING to do with her sex. It had to do with her "cute" ad. It is cute, or funny. As in the adjective meaning affectedly or mincingly pretty or clever; precious.
Krystal Ball did herself a disservice in maaking such a cutesy video and should not be surprised by the comment. It had less to do with her sex than her silly content.
