11/07- Hillary: They're Attacking Me Because I'm Winning, Not Over Gender

[jenmito]

Back in November:

"I don't think they're piling on because I'm a woman. I think they're piling on because I'm winning," Clinton told reporters after filing paperwork to appear on the New Hampshire primary ballot.

"I anticipate it's going to get even hotter, and if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen. I'm very much at home in the kitchen," she said.

So now that she' NOT winning, she cries "sexism"?! Just one more example of her hypocrisy.

1. Maybe she should have stayed in the kitchen.

Sorry. I hate to be sexist, but it's time for her to leave this campaign. She was the front-runner in November, for sure. I don't think anyone will doubt that. But it was her poor mismanaging and reliance on a free-ride which made her the laughing stock of politics.

5. It doesn't bother ME. Say what you want-SHE does. One day she says she's comfortable

in the kitchen, that she's your "girl," and then she's suddenly the victim of sexism and misogyny.

2. She's "Winning?" n/t

[jenmito]

6. She said that in November. Now that she's losing/has lost, she's using every

excuse in the book.

3. Congrats. You're winning

[jenmito]

7. Yup-that's the biggest state she's won.

Good one. :D

[CoffeeCat]

4. The attacks she's fantasizing about...

...are similar to the win she's fantasizing about.

What exactly are you winning, Hillary dear? The "who-can-act-like-an-assclown" contest?

[mudesi]

8. Can you feel the arrogance?

She got exactly what she deserved.

[jenmito]

9. Yup...right along with these statements:

"So from my perspective, you get up every day and you get out there and you make your case and you reach as many people as possible. That's what I intend to do, so I'm in it for the long run. It's not a very long run. It'll be over by February 5th."

And this:

COURIC TO CLINTON: If it's not you, how disappointed will you be?

HILLARY CLINTON: Well, it will be me.

[tledford]

10. So she said she was "winning" before the first contest?

Good thing there was no "sense of entitlement..."

[jenmito]

12. Maybe she was leading in all the polls?

:shrug:

[slinkerwink]

11. Wow, what a flip-flop.

[jenmito]

13. One of MANY.
