This Chelsea Business

I'm pretty neutral on this race thus far. I'll do a bit of research overnight before I go to vote tomorrow.

I am however annoyed by this Chelsea business.

So if you watch the above clip you'll see what the reporter said about Chelsea Clinton. I see how it can be seen as offensive, but I think there has been an overreaction. I understand the fine line journalists must walk, because we aren't commentators. At the same time public figures can't pick and choose when to be public figures.

Chelsea Clinton isn't the 12 year old kid she was when her father became president, she's a grown woman. I don't think its fair she can stump for her mother and not be expected to be exposed to criticism. Candidates wives or other supporters are being talked to and talked about. I don't think it's fair that the Clinton's continue to insist that the media be hands off Chelsea. She's a grown woman she should be held to the same standards as everyone else.

I think in this instance the Clintons are somewhat playing the media for some press.
