Davyd - Let's not replace one simplistic thought with another. I am startled by the idea that comes up fairly frequently these days - that because a woman is running other women will vote for her automatically. For me and women I've talked to, it's not a contradiction to be thrilled to see a woman running a viable, strong campaign for president, and at the exact same moment feel like someone else is a better fit for that office. That doesn't mean I am a self-hating woman. It means I'm a thinking individual.
