Clinton had submitted her name for vote. Bill Bennett and some other Bill were blithering about the fact that it will cause problems - show a divided party - and that Obama's people shouldn't have agreed to it.<BR/><BR/>Goes to show that the real problem is the status quo doesn't understand the way women do "business". You can force us to go along. We will. We are team oriented and recognize the greater good. However, our hearts will not be in it. Long term we will eventually go off and do our own thing, somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>The thing that is so irksome is that if Clinton has been a man, her efforts would have been respected and praised. Instead she has had to essentially ask for that respect and for acknowledgment of her supporters.<BR/><BR/>The Bill's comments were insulting to me as a woman. They implied that Clinton supporters were crybabies and wanted to fuss and disrupt rather than simply be acknowledged.<BR/><BR/>Men don't get the idea of closure.<BR/><BR/>Great piece.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
