Pelosi pulls a Boehner

In the 2010 midterms elections, GOP women took to tweaking their male rivals with a "man up" chant. The obvious point: Even I've got more balls than this guy.

Democrats aren't about to cede  ground on this ridiculous point. House Speaker (soon-to-be minority leader) Nancy Pelosi shows, in a similar ball-kick to House Republican minority leader (soon-to-be Speaker) John Boehner, that she can play the gender card just as well. (Via The Hill):
"You know what? He is known to cry. He cries sometimes when we’re having a debate on bills. If I cry, it’s about the personal loss of a friend or something like that. But when it comes to politics — no, I don’t cry. I would never think of crying about any loss of an office, because that’s always a possibility, and if you’re professional, then you deal with it professionally," Pelosi (D-Calif.) told the New York Times magazine.
