Hillary says that she won't be "bullied out" of the race for the White House, saying that the "big boys" - such as Senators Chris Dodd and Pat Leahy and Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico, who are all key Obama allies - are trying to push her out of the Democratic race because she is a woman. But when asked whether Barak Obama could beat John McCain in the presidential election, she said:
I'm saying I have a better chance. You cannot as a Democrat win the White House without a very big women's vote. What I believe is that women will turn out for me.
So... she thinks that women would - or should - vote for her because she is a woman too? Rather patronising, really. Women, just like men, vote for someone because they like their policies. They're not going to vote for anyone just because they have a pair of tits and lack a penis, like they do.Just think if a man was to say that, replacing the word "women" with "men". Or even if Obama was to say the same phrase just using the word "black" instead. There would immediately be an outcry against it. And the same should apply to Hillary Clinton over this.
I admire the way that Barack Obama has not playing the "I'm black, so vote for me" line. He has made it quite clear that he is about representing everyone who shares his views, not just his race or gender - but everyone.
With this phrase - and her continuous "mis-speaking" - Hillary Clinton has shown herself not fit to be a Presidential candidate.
