  • SICK OF OBAMA NAME AND ACTIONS

    What a heartbreak for the intelligent, well educated, classy, lovely people in our country to see Hillary Clinton not be our nominee. How sad, to see our country eaten up by the MSNBC AND CNN nasties, and show favoritism for someone who will not be able to give our country peace and prosperity like Hillary Clinton would. The world is once ...

  • hitchens is right

    Great article! Here's another one on a related topic: http://www.miller-mccune.com/article/430 Lack of party recruitment, not voter sexism, limits women’s presence in politics, according to a new study.

  • Hostage

    Is Sen. Obama going to be held hostage by the HRC and her supporters because she lost the race fair and square? - without all that convoluted math about her winning the most popular votes - I am still scratching my head over that ploy and how anyone would fall for that. I am a 59 year old white female accountant and I could just never get into ...

  • Hillary as Feminist?

    Although I am the same age as Hillary Clinton, I am as disappointed as Meghan O'Rourke in Hillary as a female candidate. Feminism frees both men and women to be authentic. It liberates us from the tyranny of roles, frees us from chasing the reaction of the peanut gallery-- but we must take responsibility for our choices, and not try to whine our ...

  • Best exegesis of the Clinton campaign I've ever read...

    Thank you for this clever, knowledgeable, and hopeful analysis of the Clinton campaign. As an educated woman, I struggled with my support of Hillary Clinton because of her ambivalent feminism. To my mind, she embodies the gender problem of our age: women are liberated - free to be ''just like men.'' There's a difference between a strong woman ...

  • Thank you

    I've been mystified at the apparent lack of confidence women have in their own gender if they think that Hillary is the only woman in 50 years who'll be qualified to run for president. I touched on it in my blog: http://sursum72.blogspot.com/2008/05/im-bad-at-being-woman.html (And yes, I am a woman.)

  • Re: Yes, Virginia

    Well said, Greatbear! It does smack of a mortality crisis--which would help explain the fevered pitch and desperation we are seeing. A display of faith in the future, and faith in the ones you have raised and prepared to face that future would be welcomed. This apparent lack of trust is rather unsettling, and in my opinion, not helpful to the ...

  • IS THE WOMEN'S MOVEMENT MATURE ENOUGH TO FACE THE INEVITABLE

    Thanks for this article. I have been deeply offended by the frantic, carrying on surrounding Clintons' candidacy. She is hardly unique without the marriage; the Speaker of the House and more than a handful of Congress members are in place serving---and largely without the marriage-to-someone important booster rocket. Clinton's tenacity has ...

  • Re: :-)

    Democrats and Republicans have been hashing it out, sharing the power, and screwing the American public for over a hundred years. If you believe ANY politician who has been in office: You might be an idiot. The time has come for the American people to tell these 2 ELITIST groups to back off and stop running us into the ground. No one party is ...

  • Re: Hillary

    What these self serving Obama supporters fail to see about Florida and Michigan not being counted, is that angry primary voters in those states may either stay home in November or vote for John McCain. They are fine with that so long as Obama gets the nomination. The DNC are morons, it is the voters who will say this loud and clear as they vote ...
