Hillary cried today and everyone was watching . This is my worst nightmare. Not so much that an elected official would cry in public; most cry when they get caught toe-tapping in restroom stalls. The nightmare is that the entire world would be there watching as Hillary cracked, proving that she is too weak to be president. This crybaby has officially squandered the opportunity for all of us post third-wave feminist.
So Hillary what were you thinking when you were conjuring up those tears from your heartless soul? Yes some have said this was your last ditch effort for the sympathy vote. Of course, only naive overly-emotional women would be fooled by these transparent ploys. Hillary, I ashamed that in all of your years as a shrewd, power hungry woman that you haven't learned the basic rules of glass ceiling kung foo fighting. So here are a few of the rules. And remember proper ladies take the greatest of care to never stray from the rules.
4.) Emotion is bad. People do not like emotion, they don't know how to respond. Crying is particularly heinous act giving the illusion that you do in fact have a soul/heart/are breathing. People in power should not posses this quality unless they are cuddling a stranger's baby for a photo op.
3.) A proper woman cannot posses the same qualities that men use to achieve power and success unless she likes " that bitch" tagged on to her name. Specifically on the nice scale, 1 being the devil and 100 being Jesus, a woman should always seek the Christlike perfect 100!
2.) Your personal life is not your own. Instead all of your decisions should be based on how your personal life could impact your professional life. Just a hypothetical: If your your husband likes the occasional bj under his desk from an admiring fan, you should immediately move to disavow and divorce the asshole. Staying with him will make you look like an opportunist bitch.
1.) No matter what you do, realize that however you behave you will be judged differently. And your parents adage of "when you grow up you can be President" are hollow words in a time where women still make 70 cents to the dollar (in the USA of all places), "nappy ass hos" are funny descriptors of women's sports figures, and raped women continue to pay for "their" sins in countries like Saudi Arabia.
So if I were you Hillary, get out now and let the big boys fix the big boy problems.

Well said my friend.
Hilary is one of the best candidates that this presidential race has seen. People complained that she voted the way she did against Iran. If she voted otherwise she would have been weak on national security. She has been accused of being conniving in her quest for the Whitehouse, namely still staying married to her cheating husband. What people should ask is why does being married make her a more attractive candidate? It is small minded to assume that no one would support her if she left Bill. She has been accused of being cold. Has a man ever been judged by his warmth in the oval office??? When she displays genuine frustration (her eyes welling up) she is accused to manipulating the press. Women are NOT given a fair deal. We cannot be individuals, we must fit a profile.
I agree with Nancy you cannot be competent woman who has a mind and function well in a man’s world without being called a bitch. It is a tragedy that this country is not ready to vote for a woman, when the rest of the world has long since moved on from gender bias. Catch up America.

Hilary should stop apologizing.
I winced when I saw the video of her yesterday.Anyone who knows me knows that I am an emotional sucker...I cried when I'm happy and I cry when Im sad:). And Im all for emotion. But, she played into the hands of every judgemental male on the planet!As soon as I saw it I said to myself " well, that's the end of that".
Sure, the double standard exists....how many people know that Romney cried a couple times in Dec, once during Meet the press!
Also, which woman could get away with what Obama is doing....running for Prez with 2 years of experience....
I agree with you Nancy, with that one act, she pushed us back at least 20 years....and we were only in 1920 to begin with
