Hillary Clinton is now complaining that her candidacy has been harmed by sexism. Interviewed earlier this week by the Washington Post, Sen. Clinton said the polls show that "more people would be reluctant to vote for a woman [than] to vote for an African American." This gender bias, she grumbled, "rarely gets reported on."
So a woman who holds degrees from Wellesley and Yale who has earned millions in the private sector, won two terms in the U.S. Senate, and gathered many more votes than John Edwards, Bill Richardson and several other middle-aged white guys in their respective bids for the 2008 Democratic nomination feels cheated because she's a woman.
Seems doubtful. But hey, I'm a guy and perhaps hopelessly insensitive. So let's give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that her campaign has indeed suffered because of sexism.
This fact (if it be a fact) reveals a hitherto unknown, ugly truth about the Democratic Party. The alleged bastion of modern liberalism, toleration and diversity is full of (to use Mrs. Clinton's own phrase) "people who are nothing but misogynists." Large numbers of Democratic voters are sexists. Who knew?
But here's another revelation. If Mrs. Clinton is correct that she is more likely than Barack Obama to defeat John McCain in November, that implies Republicans and independents are less sexist than Democrats.

“This gender bias, she grumbled, “rarely gets reported on.”
the fact of the matter is that ellen goodman of the boston globe writes about it daily.
and it is the subject of many ph.d. dissertations at american universities, paid for by dad and hubbie.

More likely to be racism than sexism.
Hildabeast is a lousy candidate. It's unfortunate that so many women have bet the farm on this loser.
Her candidacy has set women back because she's such a pathological liar. And, these women think she represents them.
Just goes to show you that perhaps the Suffrage Movement was wrong if women are this gullible.
And, before any women start bitchen n moaning about my statements, I am a woman who cannot stand liars. And, those dumb enough to support them. It makes you an accomplice of sorts.

"Don't be such a racist, Sweetie."
Oh the irony....I love it!
What an idiot.
People won’t vote for her because she is a shrill, Marxist, Socialist incompetent idiot.
Not because she is a woman, which I doubt anyway.
Great Read! Someone should ask her this question and get her on record.
Great Post!
She got this far because she’s somebody’s wife, and that’s a fact. She’s whining it doesn’t carry her any farther?
Hahahahahaha; bring to mind this well-PS's pic:

Sorry to ruin your Saturday BBQ dinner, Mr rlmorel, but I just had to use it!
Hillary’s blind spot is staggering.
She cannot see the absolute, brainless morons who WILL vote for simply BECAUSE she is a woman.
They run the spectrum from the liberal eunichs who have their nuts already stored in her testicle lock-box, and the sexist feminists who would vote for Stalin or Hitler if only they had female genital organs, to the incomprehensible Gennifer Flowers, who of all people said she would vote for Hillary because she is a woman.
She is an idiot, and God help our country if she ever gets out of New York and onto the national stage to wield power at the presidential level.
BWAHAHAHA!!!
Anyone paying nominal attention to the special interest group mosaic known as the modern democratic party.
And Obama blames racism and McCain blames agism and I am tired of all the isms.
2008-The year of the Electionism
What a lousy liberal. She doesn’t know that race trumps gender therein?
Snap!! But, hey, lets not logic get in the way of a good rant. And lets not forget that this b!tch will say or do anything to get Power.

Hillary's fans want her in power...
THAT’S exactly *why* I didn’t post the pic, Mr rlmorel and instead, posted a link. Besides, I don’t know how to post from the Picture Bucket site.
I also have some pics of a just-purchased 2006 Ford GT, of which I can’t get posted, either. I’m working on it, rest assured.
Being a woman has nothing to do with it. She’s a bitch.

The same kind of terrorists who support Obama did this:

Never apologize for them.
Never appease them.
Never forget.
Excellent!
Thank you sir.
