Are you sure it wasn't Bernie's "fan boys" he was called sexists, the ones posting sexist crap all over Facebook, etc.?

Spoken like a true misogynist.


The only reason I ever got anywhere in my career is because a woman higher-up helped me.


I'm SO GLAD I don't live in your world.

I agree. In spite of Bernie's strong showing in Iowa (a state that has a history of backing non-establishment candidates), this nomination is Clinton's to lose. She's not going to help her campaign by presenting herself as an even more polarizing figure than many people already believe she is.

If she's going to press Sanders on anything it should be his lack of a foreign policy, not his lack of a vagina.

Maybe they are Clinton plants? Dirty tricks! Or are the Clinton's above that? After all, they are being very well paid by Wall Street for their services. $150M so far and counting.

Or could Bernie just have some outspoken, inappropriate activists?


Keep us posted.

Hillary only knows identity politics and false accusation as tactics to win an election. She can't run on record, accomplishments, trust, or the Clinton New Democrat platform she will have if elected. That's stuff she doesn't want to talk about because there is nothing good there. She's left with appealing to gender & race. Nothing else.

These tactics backfired on the Clintons in 2008 when Bill Clinton went too far with the identity stuff against Obama and in the process lost the Black vote because many thought they were being racist. They tried it against Trump, and Trump quickly gave them a bloody nose. So now guess what, they aren't talking about Trump anymore.

IMO, Bernie Sanders has given the Clintons a lot of free passes in this primary and despite that, Hillary essentially lost Iowa. This doesn't bode well for her in the general elections because her GOP opponent, if she is nominated, certainly won't be as easy on her.

Hillary isn't the role model my wife would like for our daughter.

What really bothers me about this is neither Gloria Steinem nor Madeline Albright encouraged women to exercise their independent power of thought to make a choice in this election. Nope, just follow the herd, you're not bright enough to make a good decision group-think.


Overall, I thought the feminist movement was about having your individual freedom of choice. I think a true feminist would encourage women to think for themselves, choose the candidate that reflects their personal belief system and encourage women to exercise the hard won right to vote. I thought that was the most important thing. What happened to that?

The new message thoroughly disappoints.

Oh, I think the Clinton's will do anything for a few hundred more million.

If I was her, I would speak more about all she and her husband did to earn that $150 million in speaking fees. I'm sure they earned it all. Want it Bill who repealed Glass-Steagall? Nice one for Wall Street. Led directly to the last two financial crashes. Dear Bill. Always looking out for the little guy - himself.
