GRIM MILESTONE INDEED
I had the thought today that, if Hillary Clinton is elected president, as a woman I will probably be expected to be happy that we have reached a historical milestone. Instead I will feel zero percent joy. I don't care if we ever have a woman president; I only want a good president. I don't care if it's a woman, man, Rhodesian Ridgeback, whatever, as long as they approach the job from my value system. Otherwise, I will be bummed.

There won't be any happiness in this household that is 60% female if she is elected. Ugh...

Sadly Sarah, I think some woman will be voting for Hillary JUST because of her gender.(I hope coming from a guy that doesn't sound too sexist). I'd love to be wrong about this but I happen to live in NY, so I know a little about Monica Lewinski's Boyfriend's Wife, who supports her & why.

Tim, I know some will vote for her just because she's a woman, just like some will vote for Obama just because he's black. It's just as bad as NOT voting for them for those reasons.
