Don't think you get it..
[Read the article: Hey, Obama boys: Back off already!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]For me, it really is, a case of not THAT woman.
I would have been more than happy to vote for Hillary before she went on the attack against Obama. Say what you like, when she gaffes, he doesn't say too much about it. I don't remember him mentioning her sniper fire incident once.
More than her being a woman, Hillary embodies the old guard of the Democratic party. That is why I had the same reservations about Richardson that I do about Clinton.

How far can we go here?
[Read the article: Playing the bin Laden card?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hillary...
This is the kind of thing we are talking about. You cannot fight Republicans and draw distinctions against Republicans when you act like Republicans.
Somewhere in his black little heart, Rove smiles as he gains another convert to his methodology.

I know this is going to come out wrong but...
[Read the article: Why Clinton voters say they won't support Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Seriously, looking at these letters, it does seem that 90 something percent of the people that say the won't vote for Obama are in fact, women.
I wonder why that is. I would suggest that if Hillary was male, they wouldn't care nearly so much, and would be willing to see that she is the reason she lost.
She voted for the war. She kept Penn on for way too long. She couldn't keep Bill from being dumb. She was the one that said she would "obliterate" Iran. She was the one that voted for Kyl Lieberman. She was the one that totally lost touch with reality when it was clearly over in Feb.
Honestly, if the shoe was on the other foot, Obama would have been forced out months and months ago. He in fact HAD to win Iowa to even have a prayer. Hillary could lose and lose and lie about Michigan and Florida mattering, and lose and lie over and over and still stay in the race.
Why? Because of ANYTHING she has done as the Junior Senator from New York? Absolutely not. She was in after March because she was a Woman and a Clinton both.
Pop quiz, HRC fanatics, who is the Senior Senator from New York? Every single HRC fanatic supporter (all women I may add) that I know that are refusing to vote Obama has not known the answer, and couldn't care less.
It's absurd to complain about the Media's Sexism when the Media was bending over backwards to make her appear to be a credible candidate after March.

@-- Veronica in CA
[Read the article: Why Clinton voters say they won't support Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]We "angry older women" believe he is a dangerous proposition for this country. We see him as more dangerous than John McCain. We see him as possibly more dangerous than any potential President in our nation's history. We have done our own research, many of us have read thousands of documents, and we know whereof we speak.
This is not even something I can believe a rational person would say. Please explain.
A few places to begin to help you focus on this:
What has he done or said that is more dangerous than talking about “obliterating” Iran with a nuclear strike?
What has he done or said that has caused more damage than the politically cowardly vote on invading Iraq?
What has he done or said that is more dangerous than voting to allow Bush to be able to attack Iran in the interests of rooting out a terrorist group?
We older women are now more concerned about whether or not Pakistan is going to use its nuclear arsenal once Obama makes good on his 7-time pledge to militarily strike "terrorists" inside Pakistan without their approval.
Yet somehow, none of that that Hillary said bothers you in the slightest….
How… inconsistent of you. I’m sure it’s all policy that drives you to dislike Obama, and has nothing to do with Hillary’s sex. Nope. Not at all.
Also, I know you are lying either about reading “thousands of papers” or about being concerned, because if you knew shit from shampoo, you would know that Pakistan wants them gone just as badly as we do, they just can’t do anything about it.
