Hillary allows men at ‘women-only’ event amid weak turnout
Page Six ^ | 6/1/15 | Ian Mohr

Hillary Clinton had trouble attracting high-powered women to a New York talk hosted by Silda Wall Spitzer two weeks before her campaign officially kicks off. Sources said that after ticket sales fizzled for an intimate $2,700-per-person, “just for women” meeting on Monday, the event was thrown open to men at the 11th hour, and the deadline extended to buy tickets.

The “Conversation With Hillary Clinton” event at Midtown law firm Akin Gump was originally aiming to attract 125 women. An e-mail invitation seen by Page Six said the event is “just for women.” But by Friday, “They’d only sold 50 tickets, so they threw it open to men,” a source said. “Ticket sales were supposed to close at 10 a.m. Sunday, but the hostesses were working the phones and pushed the deadline till Monday.”

We hear about 90 attendees included former Bill Clinton aide Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney and his husband Randy Florke, Maurice Tempelsman, Jill Braufman (wife of hedge funder Daniel Nir), Jean Shafiroff and Susan Cole. The event began at noon, but Clinton arrived at 1 p.m. in “a royal blue jacket and black pants.” She then took pictures with donors and delivered a half-hour speech before leaving at about 2 p.m.

Yeah, but what kind of men? Transgenders, cross-dressers, and liberals?

Hmm....only $2700, a paltry amount for events such as these, and they could only find 50?

The beginning of the end for Hillary perhaps. This is evidence she’s beginning to be perceived as incapable of winning. Or more likely there’s a fear she will become an embarrassment to those who publicly back her.

The talk topic: "My Life with Elliot: A seminar on 'doormatting' by powerful men."

Hil could probably chime in with a couple of relevant episodes in her life with Bill!

If the event was billed as ‘just for men’ I’ll bet a lot more feminazis would have demanded to be included. HRC just needs to understand how to motivate her base.

That Hillary! was unable to attract 125 militant feminazi womyn in mid-town Manhatten does not bode well for her campaign.

Even Eliot Spitzer wasn't interested in his wife. If Hillary wants someone who can draw and satisfy a crowd, he should go with the other woman.

Ashley Alexandra Dupre is a professional, and she keeps her promises to do the same thing to her clients that politicians do to the voters. She'll leave them smiling (although possibly with a lifetime disease) instead of snoring (and certainly with several generations of debt).

**********************************************

The Queen of Green (cash) in ‘royal’ blue no less, put in an appearance & that’s about it. Her “conversations” are similar to Obama’s “transparency” - nonexistent.

Even if everybody came, the gathering of New York women could still be characterized as a weak turnout

Virtually her whole campaign is based on “vote for me because, like you, I have a vagina”.

If she can’t turn out women for a thing like this she’s toast.

"...The beginning of the end for Hillary perhaps...."

My glasses are dirty, and for a second I thought you wrote "PIAPS" there at the end.

As you know, PIAPS is an acronym invented by a FReeper several years ago do describe Hillary.

It stands for "Pig In a Pantsuit".
