As a woman, I find his insulting of our collective intelligence offensive. He does not have anything positive to run on, since he is espousing Bush’s failed policies, so he resorts to negative campaigning and advertising.

His ads are shallow and juvenile, and the ones showing Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton saying Obama is inexperienced demonstrate a 72-year-old man’s failure to comprehend that people’s opinions are open to change when faced with evidence that contradicts their previous ones.

Despite his own “experience.” he has made a lot of gaffes and lapses, especially in the area of foreign affairs where his strength is supposed to lie. In addition, he has indicated a desire to overturn Roe vs. Wade, and has opposed bills for vetearans’ benefits that Obama has supported.

So, voting for him out of spite would be an act
of self-destructive stupidity.
