Lena Dunham Brings Hillary Clinton Millennial Cred in New Hampshire

A voice of a generation speaks up

Lena Dunham was the first woman in the restaurant to say “vagina” and the only one to boast that her underwear said “feminist” or that she had been called a dirty name on Fox News. Without a doubt, this made her the best Hillary Clinton messenger in New Hampshire on Friday.

Dunham had traveled north to stand under technicolor portraits of rotund nudes and a drink menu printed on a cutout mustache. It was her first day campaigning for the only Democratic woman running for president. And as Clinton’s saleswoman and ambassador, the 29-year-old actress, author and Girls creator gave herself free rein to say things that the 68-year old candidate never would.

“Nothing gets me angrier than when somebody implies that I’m voting for Hillary Clinton because she’s a woman,” Dunham told a packed crowd with only a few men. “It’s not like we have some feminist version of beer goggles called ‘estrogen lens’ that just causes us to go walking up to the nearest vagina and vote for them.”
