I'm a guy, but have always supported what I thought were the principals of feminism: strength, independence, equal pay, equal respect, that a woman doesn't need a man "to complete her," etc. One of the stereotypical traits that is attributed in an often demeaning way is that women are too emotional and let their emotions crowd out logic and rational thinking too often, while men are the more rational, more logical, therefore more able to lead and make decisions.

I've heard that Huckabee, but have not heard it myself, thinks women should be subservient to men even though that flys in the face of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Nevertheless, this isn't about Huckabee nor is it about the honesty of Hillary's emotional moment. It's about the post NH primary analysis by the pundits who claimed that the women voters turned sharply from Obama to Hillary because they were tired of seeing her being beaten up and they felt emotion for her emotional moment.

If these pundits are right I'd say the feminist movement just took a giant step backward as the NH women just voted for a presidential candidate based primarily on emotion and not on rational decision making. Hillary voted for the Iraq war, for the patriot axe (sic) she campaigned against flag burning even while Bush and Cheney burned the Constitution. Rupert Murdoch held a fundraiser for her, she's taking more money from big pharma and big corporations then any candidate, Burson Marstellar is her Think Tank/Marketing corporate image fixxer upper and it goes on and on. Bill Clinton gave us NAFTA, CAFTA, WTO, deregulated FCC and it goes on and on.

The biggest problem with this is that this race for the presidency is not about the president, but about We the people getting the government we deserve. Instead, if the pundits are right, the women voters of NH saw this as something of a game or tv reality show where people get voted off and they felt her pain and wanted her to be the last woman standing.

The one check on which candidates we don't want or need is the candidates the corporate media industrial complex is pushing the hardest for. Hillary gets the lion's share of coverage and will do, I suspect, less for We the People than the other Dem candidates and more for the corporations that are running this country into the ground.

Then we'll all be crying.
