Some people have serious misgivings about Hillary; that is about opinions, and to varying degrees is actually about her. A disturbing number of people have been eating out their own guts with festering hatred for her. That is about them, and their spiritual disorders. But even with them, I have to think that only a fraction are driven by that level of generalized hatred for women.

Things like the Hillary nutcracker and the "Ho" shirt, are profoundly foul. Had there been any chance of my voting for McCain before his cute little joke about Chelsea's parentage, I don't see how I could consider it now. But, in my experience with racism and my experience with sexism, one thing remains: I have never heard anyone say, "The only good woman is a dead woman".
