[Dems2008] Re: "The boys always wanted me to quit" and the Gender Card

I think you are missing the point. Yes there is a old boys club, i won't deny that. But
obama has supporters that are male, female, and yes, probably trans-gender. In addition,
many females have called for her to step aside, so it is not just the old boys club. It
appears that hillary is continuing to play the gender card. Hillary opened the gender issue
herself. Throughout the campaign Hillary has repeatedly stated that she would be the first
women president as a reason to vote for her.

Though i don't agree with Ms. Rhodes or Mr. Hitchens, Hillary opened the door to these
type of attacks. She muddied the water several weeks ago with an anything goes
campaign, not just the kitchen sink, but the whole kitchen. Unfortunately, some
people(including my wife, mom, and one of my sisters) think Hillary is bitchy and has been
whining like a little child throughout the entire campaign. This is and has always been one
of her image problems. She softened her image in New Hampshire, only to bring the REAL
Hillary back when she lost 11 contests in a row.

The image problem is one reason, among many, that Hillary can not win in November and
why she is not winning now. Must I remind everyone that Obama is ahead in the popular
vote, the delegate count, and the most states won. In addition, he has also caught up to
Hillary with Super Delegates.

I live in PA and can't wait to vote. i don't want the contest to end yet either. People are
gonna be mighty surprised about the results in pennsylvania. Obama really connected with
a lot of voters last week on his six day tour of the state, and he is making huge inroads
with the working class. Hillary's top campaign guy working to undermine workers rights
does not help her cause in PA.
