Hillary: The Anti-Feminist?!? Or Not?!?
My friend (who’s not a Hillary fan) sent me the following WSJ editorial: http://www.opinionjournal.com/columnists/pnoonan/
I’m curious what y’all think: Is Hillary being a wimp? Or are men truly ganging up on her? For that matter, is Margaret Thatcher really an ideal (woman) politician?

Well I didn’t read any of her responses to the attacks on her, so feel free to disregard this opinion, but I disagree pretty well with Ms. Noonan’s assessment of Hillary. I think she’s attacking the caricature of Hillary that her enemies have constructed. In reality I think Hillary has very strong leadership potential and the ability to cross political boundaries. I still lean towards Barack, but I like Hillary too. She’s no wimp.
And no, of course Thatcher is not the ideal politician, either of the female persuasion or not.
I don’t think it is a secret that I am for Obama, but I wasn’t making the same connections that the Journal was making.
