What Hillary Should Say Now

The reality is, a lot of women *do* make judgments based on gender - to say they don't is misleading and untrue. All of us make decisions everyday based on an intricate convolutions of conscious and unconscious factors, and gender is sometimes one them, whether or not we are willing to admit it.

When are you going to change your name to OpinionWeek? And, no Hillary may not be heard from again until this election is over. It is, after all, in her best interests for Obama to lose.

dismayed_in_fla you should not be dismayed especially from the state who left katherine harris in charge of your elections.As time goes on the true Palin story will surface...like the true story onGeo.w. Bush being a deserter will...the real story on the bridge to nowhere is out already...

What Hillary should say right now? How about "I told you so" to the DNC and all of the Obama supporters who fell in line like lemmings behind an unelectable goofball.

Hillary has already done all that is necessary for her to do. Obama "chose" NOT to have her as part of his Campaign. And when the far-left-wing of the Democratic Party selected Obama ... they "chose" to ignore the voters. I will hold my nose and vote for McCain as I too would rather have a little pain with McCain than a lot of trauma with Obama!

Hillary should say: "Newsweek, you asked me to drop out of the race a dozen times, you smeared me innumerable times, you begged Obama, your chosen one, to passover me as VP. So, Newsweek, all I have to say to you now is: drop dead."

This is what's so upsetting since the Palin nomination. Battle lines have been drawn between red and blue like I haven't seen in a long time. I'm an Obama supporter, but I'm trying to learn all I can about Palin to make sure I'm not judging her unfairly. But I can't judge ANYTHING until we hear from her. Her compelling story is just not enough for me to let her govern our nation. Is that book-banning story true? How does she feel about illegal immigration? the drug war? Her family life is her business and I think it's cool that she hunts and fishes. Just please let us see her before she spends a month in a bunker being poisoned by Karl Rove.

I challenge everyone to demand from the media that Sarah Palin be interviewed, and now. And not by Fox or MSNBC, either. Have her on Meet the Press -that's what all the other candidates do.

I believe only we've getting to know her is the only way to get the vitriol out of this election and move on with what really matters.

Now you need Hillary? Now Hillary can speak on behalf of women? Give me a break !!! Hillary should take a long vacation and should not be disturbed by those who attacked her and now so desperately need her. I guess you have some dignity left, but I see that when political gains are involved, there is no human dignity or respect. You should have stood up to Hillary when the media and Obama's supporters were so against her, but perhaps you did not have the courage to do it. So now, just let him fly solo, and leave Hillary in peace ! She does not have to fight for a cause that was lost since its own inception. The show is over, the Dem Convention is over and Hillary played her role, I guess she is now even !

Hillary's in a tough spot. No doubt she both resents Obama and realizes that Palin has probably ended her 2012 viability.

Hillary needed to do very well among conservative women to make up for those who were alienated and angered by the later stages of her campaign and her kitchen sink/ Tonya Harding/ southern strategy.

Hillary won't take those women from Palin. Sarah changes everything.

Hopefully Hillary will still contribute.

Hillary Clinton has already done far and above what is necessary for her to do for the Obama Campaign. The far-left-wing-Democrats "selected" Obama ... and Obama selected Biden. Done! Hillary must now do her work to elect other Democrats to Congress and the Senate ... she is not part of the Obama Campaign. And I am praying that she will run in 2012 and become our greatest President in history!

Dear Ms. Davis: You do not speak for me, a woman who has raised 4 children and worked full time. I respect Ms. Palin and believe she has given a voice to many milllion American women. She has demonstrated her choice in how many children she has, how she raises her family and her career.
That Ms. Davis, is what we women have been fighting for all these years.

The more posts I read, the more I realize that liberal women feel helpless. Why else would you need Hillary to speak for you. Hell, speak for yourself! You are not helpless victims with nothing to look forward to. We live in the greatest country in the world, and I for one, will make it regardless of who wins. If Obama wins, it will be harder, but I will still survive and flourish. I believe that Palin is such a breath of fresh air because she's a doer, not a whiner. She makes her own way. No one needs to come to her rescue. Get tough ladies and make your own way!

Hillary help? Have you forgotten so soon? Palin did not dump Hillary, Obama did! Palin did not toss aside 18 million Hillary voices, Obama did! Palin did not belittle Hillary's clothes, her laugh, her tears, her hopes, her dreams, Obama and his thugs did! I know I was there every day fighting against the Obama thugs who said Hillary murdered Vince Foster, made money on drugs, cheated on her husband, and on and on and on. Now I'm going to fight FOR Sarah Palin because I see the same garbage happening to Palin. Go, Sarah, go! Hillary don't lift a finger to help that bunch of thugs. Ypou know them and I know what you had to deal with. We know.

I agree that the best person to become President should be Hillary Clinton. Unfortunaltely the Democratic Party selecfted Obama who my estimation was the wrong canditdate becasue he is a neophyte who will more harm then good. Hillary does not owe the Democratic Party anything.. My wife and I are Independents who will cast our vote for McCain but select Democrats for Congress,

You said, "We do not see rudeness and snarkiness and sarcasm as admirable; in fact, most women teach their children not to treat others in that manner, and they tend to steer clear of adults who never learned that lesson." You said this after what Clinton did? What a hypocrite.
