(2/28) Hillary Clinton: Betrayed, in the End, by Senate Boys Club?(Politics Daily)

VotedHillary · Platinum

Was it a betrayal, as the authors call it, by Clinton's Senate colleagues? Perhaps, but it wasn't just politics as usual. I see it in shades of gender as well as politics. Older men often like to champion and mentor younger men who remind them of their youth. Given a choice between anointing a political peer, a woman, and an outstanding younger African American (12 years younger), it wasn't even close. Obama was their pick.

Amy, I was just seething while I read this earlier today. Boys will be BOYS is the name of the game with both the Dems and Repubs.

And I will NEVER understand what is so "outstanding" about Barack Obama. To me, he was a weak Senator and now, an even weaker POTUS.

You and me both. They chose the least qualified and least prepared candidate

because it stoked their false sense of male superiority. And Chuck the backstabber

Schumer really ticks me off.

I read this yesterday but since the doctor told me to take it easier with politics for a little while because the stress is killing me. I bit my tongue. Disquesting is all I have to say.
Its time to take Schummer out he is up for reelection and he can't rely on Hillary
