Both sides need to relax. What Elizabeth Warren told a crowd at a Democrat Senate debate at the University of Massachusetts when asked how she paid for college, was clearly meant as a joke. Senator Scott Brown's response later on a Massachusetts radio show was also clearly a joke.
The fact that both parties are now using this as political fuel for a fire seems ridiculous. It was nothing more than two possible political rivals taking a jab at each other. Besides Warren might not even be running against Brown in 2012 if she does not win the Democrat nomination. Plus, Brown's comment was not sexist or meant to belittle women.
Was it smart for Warren or Brown to say what they said? Not really. Looking back, they would both probably take back what they said just so they could stop having to talk about this non-issue. Warren and Brown, plus the mainstream media, need to get back to the real issues, not only facing Massachusetts, but the United States in general.
