You keep trying and trying but you can't scrape them off! These people need to get a grip and a life! And for all those women out there, still clinging to the belief that a woman, any woman, and in the case of Hillary Clinton, the wrong woman, will face up to those old white chauvinistic guys, I ask you to stop clinging to your prejudices and biases and look toward bettering our future. She is not and never was the woman we needed in the White House. Look at Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meier, Indira Ghandi, and you will see both leadership and women at their best. Not some haridan in a pants suit, pushing her own agenda, and crying over her lost legacy. A right of entitlement is not the answer. As I have said before, I went through the same changes or lack thereof that you did, but at least I am trying to keep an open mind. And when I see the right woman for President -- and there will be one -- I will vote for her. The Clintons are like gum on your shoe. You keep trying and trying but you can’t scrape them off!
