Is Hillary Clinton on the way out - Misogyny stronger than racism?.

With Hillary seemingly in big trouble we looked at a number of issues :

Is Misogyny stronger than racism (suggested in the Times of London) or is it something else?

We believe that the "vertical politics" of Mike Huckabee or the "post-partisan-politics"
of Barack may be playing a big part in what is unfolding.

Because left and right are not as clear as they once were the personalities of the candidates are
playing a far bigger role than they once did.

Circumstances may well negate this for the future but in 2008 they are playing a big part.

Thought Leader » Michael Trapido » Is Hillary Clinton set to quit? Misogyny is stronger than racism?

She's a shallow and supercilious jerk. That matters more than what's not in her pants.

You don't think the Queen of the flip flop has flopped once too many?

She can't even fake sincerity anymore.

I think the odds on the GOPs need to be slashed - Rudy is going to the White House - you heard it here first.

Rudy? I'll believe anything campaign-wise these days. What's the scenario?

She is just to selfish and mean spirited to win.

It is going to be Huckabee/McCain or McCain/Huckabee.

No one cares about the skin color or the gender of any candidate. We care about the issues. Only the leftist socialist liberal hippies care about the outside appearance of a candidate.

It is definitely to do with misogryny rather than having the charm of a used teabag.

Too much credit. Tea bags are warm and remind you of delicious tea.

I hope Rudy Guiliani loses. I highly mistrust him. He's been riding the 9/11 coattails way too much for my taste.
