Instead of couching this as "why Hillary drives me nuts" I'm going to couch this as "why Hllary needs a new speech writer."

Regardless, it comes out to the same. Did you see her speech last night when she ranted about shattering the glass ceiling, as if her struggle, as a wealthy, well-educated woman whose claim of experience isn't just her senate seat, but having been married to the president is somehow indicative of the struggles most women face? Sorry, her glass ceiling isn't my glass ceiling. Number two? Trying to put that against the Obama single mom story? Bad idea.

Also? People holding signs saying "We've got your back, Hillary"? Shouldn't she have ours?

She just sets my teeth on edge, mainly because I feel like her strategists are idiots.

Her campaign makes me sad because I would love to be excited about the idea of the first woman president, I really would. I don't like the bullshit she has to put up with because she's female, but the whole "you're not a feminist if you don't vote for a woman for president" thing isn't winning her any points from me.
