So Bill writes for the Washington Post under the pseudonym Joanna Rothkopf?

We have seen our fair share of bad takes this election cycle—we’ve seen the personal essay (ie. “Why the Feminist Vote Is a Vote for Jeb”), the unexpected turn (ie. “You Might Think Hillary Is a Woman—Here’s Why She Isn’t”), the outrage-bait garbage (ie. “A Liberal Case for Donald Trump”) (that one’s real).
Late Wednesday evening, the Washington Post published something new. Written as advice to the Clinton campaign, the article, entitled “Hillary Clinton is walking into Donald Trump’s trap,” instructed the female candidate to stop making such a big deal of her gender. It was emasculating, the article argued—someone openly female could never win a national election.
The main problem Clinton faces now, argued Danielle Allen, a female political theorist at Harvard University and a contributing columnist at the paper, is Trump’s crusade to turn Clinton into the “women’s candidate.” If he succeeds, Allen argues, Clinton will lose.
“Let’s be honest. Polling shows that Trump has a problem with women, but it also shows that Clinton has a problem with men,” she said, linking to an article about exit polls in the Acela primary....

She’s running to be the “woman President”.
Hillary Clinton Needs to Start Thinking About an orange Prison pant suit.
“men” will not vote for her. Males with buns in their hair will.

And knit stocking caps on their heads in all weather.
Great advice! Just keep ignoring Hillary’s unpopularity with men. The recent Rasmussen showed Hillary is viewed less favorably by men (35%) than Trump is by women (38%), but just ignore that Democrats! Go in there “tits out and free-bleeding” and to hell with men! If the feminist movement is about one thing, it’s that women need men like a fish needs a bicycle!
What an idiot.
Hillary should fight for men as well as women.
This may explain what happened to Ambassador Stevens.
She wasn’t willing to fight for him or the other men who lost their lives that night.
A: the soundbite of her mocking a rape victim when the rapist got off on a technicality has gone viral after all these decades.
I frequent some forums that (while not news or politically focused) skew heavily left. Hillary Clinton who was once their Gaian Messiah is now thought of as so much sewage. Nobody gets banned for criticizing her anymore - instead everyone piles on.
B: Bill Clinton is the white Bill Cosby. As his looks have faded women no longer overlook his transgressions. Hillary made an egregious error in defending him as vehemently as she did.
Hillary will need to steer clear of all victimology tactics relating to her sex.
Hillary is the leader of the Man-Haters Club.
Big mistake!
There are millions of women voters with sons, husbands and fathers they love and care for. These are women who have done well in our country without a rabid woman tearing men apart in their lives.
The basket case liberal females will vote for HIll and would have any way~! Clinton is not gaining new voters with this pc scam.
All Clinton has is the Woman’s Card.
Her Sec of St accomplishments were lackluster and created more worldly problems than they solved. And Benghazi and 4 dead Americans can be attributed directly to her 3:00 phone call failure.
She didn’t do much as a Senator.
These are not the words of a real woman, these are the words of a mentally ill person who happens to have boobs.
“3:00am phone call failure”
Great political ad...digital clock flips to 3:00am with snoring in the background. Suddenly the phone (positioned next to a tipped over vodka bottle) starts incessantly ringing. Scene switches to a desperate person on the other end of the line on the other side of the world. Machine guns can be heard in the distance but coming closer with the occasional explosions of mortars and rpgs shaking the building to its foundation. Black smoke is beginning to envelope the room, as the person slams the phone and redials. Next scenes of the deaths and mutilations of the bengazi people flash across the screen, as the scene pans back to a ringing telephone in a dark room, as a shaking female hand (with the sound of coughing in the background) blindly searches for the phone, finally reaching it picks it up and slams it down, then blindly grabs the vodka bottle. The sound of drinking, a bottle crashing, then snoring.
She’s got the Pajama Boy vote.
Rather than simply fighting for women and children, Clinton needs to fight Trump for the votes of men. His slogan is, “Make America Great Again.” Hers should be, “Make America Fair Again.”
Can we be great without being fair? No we cannot.
Do women want fairness? Yes. Do men want fairness? Yes. Do African American, Latino and Muslim Americans want fairness? Yes. Do white Americans want fairness? Yes. Do religious Americans want fairness? Yes. Do gay, lesbian and transgender Americans want fairness? Yes.
One of the first lessons I was taught by older attorneys when I became a lawyer was that any time someone says they want to be “fair,” they are actually out to screw you.
One of the biggest alarm bells there is. A lawyer knows that only means what the speaker thinks it means.
Look at any draft contract that has been reviewed by a competent lawyer. Any time the word “fair” has been used it will be crossed out.
