Bill, imagine a lifetime of being told you are inferior because of your gender. Then imagine a week of watching concentrated attacks on someone because they share that gender. Then imagine seeing a bunch of people you don't know rise up and defend that person, in effect shouting "BACK OFF!" to the attack brigade. It would cheer you up, trust me.

whiterosebuddy, I don't agree with your opinions about the Clintons, but it really doesn't matter - as I said, I'm an Obama supporter, in part because he's got that rock star quality that has the potential to produce very long coatails that will result in Dem gains in congressional and statewide elections. Nonetheless, I'm enjoying today - its a very unladylike middle finger to the neanderthals.

Follow-up to my previous post - I'd also like to thank the morons from the Boston radio station that staged the "Iron my shirt!" stunt. I sure it delivered more votes to Clinton than Steinem's editorial!!!

I'm an Obama supporter, but you know what? Gloria Steinem's column in today's NYT was right on. So I'm proud of my sisters in NH.
