I dreamed of voting for a female president, or maybe even becoming one myself! I ditched that latter dream by middle school, but I still hang onto the first one.<BR/><BR/>Today I spoke with my sister, who's much to the right of me but also generally onboard with feminism. She has a similarly melancholy feeling, wishing she could be excited about Clinton. <BR/><BR/>Maybe I'll feel more enthusiastic if she actually wins the nomination - after I've thoroughly licked my wounds, of course.Sungoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02153155221248240952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2281443754502891373.post-67612428787272590192008-02-06T21:37:00.000-05:002008-02-06T21:37:00.000-05:00Katha Pollit rocks me.

I want to support Hillary Clinton, but her political positions on many issues are not acceptable to me. Worse yet, her campaign has engaged in tactics I find repellent. And yet, and yet, and yet. Thanks for your thoughts on this.ThePoliticalCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561906144646421575noreply@blogger.com
