Why women should vote for women

Sexism is driving women away from the GOP front-runner Donald Trump and the Republican Party, potentially providing a windfall to Hillary Clinton in a general election.

But to ride women's discontent into the Oval Office, of course, Clinton has to win the Democratic nomination. And while she has maintained a strong advantage with women voters overall, she's not doing well with all women. White millennial women favor Bernie Sanders.

Perhaps that's because the best rationale for Clinton's candidacy hasn't been effectively communicated to millennial women. There is a powerful case to be made for electing a woman president, and it has nothing to do with the straw man of identity politics.

The most compelling reason women should vote for Hillary Clinton? Pure self-interest.

Yeah all you FReeper gals, Hillary has your back.

Sarah Palin sends her regards.

[Steely Tom]

Does that go for white people too?

[GraceG]

Because we are supposed to think with our private bits and skin color and Liberal Progressive assigned victim group like a good little Democrat drone?

Butt, she is presidential:

I think women have a hard time buying into the phony relationship between she and Bill. I think they all know that the only reason she stayed with Bill is political. I also think that if her bid for the Presidency fails (by vote or jury conviction), she will drop Bill like a bad habit.

And whites should vote for whites...

Any kind of “ism” is OK so long as it supports the left. It’s not OK if it doesn’t.

Am I the only one who sees statements like this as a hilariously absurd example of cognitive dissonance?

LOL, it does follow their logic.

It's truly insane and absurd.

[uglybiker]

Women should only vote for other women when they are running for the all important offices of:

Makin’ me a sammich
Ironing my shirts
Cooking my supper
Gittin’ me a beer

:-p

Women should vote for women, so they call elect people like Angela Merkel and thus earn the right to be raped by Muslims.

A liberal woman would call you sexist for that remark and then blow her rape whistle.
