Hillary Clinton’s older feminist supporters have a message for young women who are not backing her candidacy: Shame on you.
Women were expected to help power Mrs. Clinton to the Democratic nomination, but as she struggles to overcome a tough challenge from Senator Bernie Sanders, her support among them has been surprisingly shaky. Young women, in particular, have been drawn to the septuagenarian socialist from Vermont, and the dynamic has disappointed feminists who dreamed of Mrs. Clinton’s election as a capstone to the movement.
Two feminist icons of Mrs. Clinton’s generation made their frustration known over the weekend, calling on young women who view Mr. Sanders as their candidate to essentially grow up and get with the program.

I have a dream for Hillary this year as well. ...and it involves handcuffs, a perp walk, and prison. That would be a mighty satisfying capstone.
With aged supporters like Albright and Steinem and their emphasis on voting by gender,I have a suggestion for a new Clinton campaign theme song: Fat Bottom Girls.
Like young women are going to give a rip what those old bags say....
Gloria and Maddy’s sell by date has passed by 2 or 3 Decades.
Of course! I’m guessing you are too young to remember?
Half-bright is a crap head.
sadly not! was just throwing that out there for conversation.
Nothing personal, but the gender identity uber alles thing makes me want to puke.
They called Steinem and Albright "older women".
No they are actually OLD women, like Hillary.
GREAT campaign slogan: "Old women: vote for an old woman."
Why?
Well, she's a woman.
Any OTHER reason?
I got nothing.
Oh, but they do.
Cute as hell, but dumb as posts.
The only good thing I can say about Ms. Albright is that she has good taste in jewelry (particularly the pieces from Cartier and Tiffany’s).
Other than that, she’s stupid, fat and getting to be almost as ugly as Helen Thomas, who retired the Ugly Crown for all time.
Madame Halfbright is a loon. Always has been.
The most important factor to feminists in the world...VAGINAS. Sexist pigs.
OK! I had an associate years ago who knew Albright. At that time, “Maddy” was considered to be a reasonable and moderate and fair-minded lady, extremely bright. She was respected by all sides for not “playing politics.” I hope she hasn’t become a rabid idealogue or something. She seems very closely aligned with Hillary’s personal ambitions, but maybe both being female Secretaries of State is some magical bond. Certainly they are in a rarefied club.
Much better taste in both jewelry and clothing than Hillary, for sure! As for her looks, well, Madeleine is getting pretty old, isn’t she? To her credit she seems to face it bravely, not having tons of work done to her face like Hillary.
“Ms. Albright is that she has good taste in jewelry (particularly the pieces from Cartier and Tiffany’s).”
Kinda like putting $700 a piece tires on a clapped-out ‘47 Buick.
Only in America could two women urge other women to vote their sex, because not doing so is sexism.
Bernie’s baggin’ the babes.
Repeal the 19th Amendment.
Seriously.
