I'm a sucker for thinking evidence will change people's minds. So watch this video, and tell me sexism hasn't hurt Hillary Clinton in this campaign.

    at the terrible reading comprehension skills of the Salon.com readers. is there some reason why many of you cannot read her qualifying statements about the video? about sexism? about Clinton? Jeez, I've got my work cut out for me at the college!

    Joan Walsh is the ONLY person talking about this online or in the media, the ONLY journalist.

    That's sad. BTW, I know most of Obama's campaigners in Illinois and they are taking the easy road just like him. Every time something bad happens about sexism, he shrugs his shoulders---he's glib, just like Elizabeth Edwards said, but won't own up to saying.

    My classes are split down the middle on gender---women and men do not agree, because the Bush culture of post-9-11 has made it easy for straight white men to say and do whatever they want, and justify it as a "natural" characteristic. Take a look at the identities of all those guys featured in the video....what do you see?
