The Fact That Hillary Is STILL Courting Women Voters, Should Tell You Everything You Need To Know
about how she views politics and running a campaign.

Stick to your base like glue, and don't nudge beyond them, because it's a scary, scary world out there beyond your echo chamber.


It's three months into the campaign, more than half the states and contests have been decided, everyone is more tuned into this primary than at any time so far -- and Hillary is still trying to shore up her base of support among women.

That should tell you everything you need to know.

Obama is running around, trying to pick up white men, white women, young people, old people, hispanics, gays, christians, ect.

Hillary is still sticking to soccer moms and women over 50 who make less than $50,000 a year.

Going for that 50% + 1 strategy that's worked so great for her in the past.

Really. I know I'm an Obama supporter and everything, but I'd be banging my head against the wall if I supported Clinton and saw her approaching the climax of her campaign and she's still trying to keep her ducks in a row.

Like Obama, she should have those ducks squarely behind her and be moving on to the other groups of voters.

If she's still courting women NOW, how the hell can she even hope to win anyone else?

1. Hillary's strategy involves grabbing a group
and holding them in a death grip. That's how she "wins."

3. She's still courting that group...
because she is trying desperately to hang onto them. The Wisconsin exit polls showed the only lock she has is women over 65.

4. Yes, just who in the hell are these so-called women? They act like they're half the party!
Hell, sometimes they act like they're more than half of all Democrats! They must be put in their place!

Grab a broom, woman! Thou art loosed... to go clean up the House!

And the Senate, too!

Hillary from the gitgo... This is a very competitive woman who demands loyalty, attention and all that goes with that. She's an operator of the highest order and damn anyone or anything that stands in her way. As a woman, who had a cheating husband, believe me, mine paid big time for it. I don't think Hillary is that much different, but her political career came first and if he wanted to stay the legend in his own mind that he thinks he is, he was going to give her anything she wanted to obtain the presidency she thinks she deserves.

Let's face it, she would have been long forgotten if she hadn't been Mrs. Clinton. I find her stilted, untrustworthy and phoney. Don't think Bill's not paying his dues for his infidelities, he is. He'll keep right on paying 'till she gets what she wants...
