This has nothing to do with sexism, it has everything to do with Hillary Clinton. I would rather vote Republican than vote for her. Give me anything except for Hillary.

So my choices are to be racist or sexist this year?

Molavian: So my choices are to be racist or sexist this year?

That's why the "You're sexist if you vote for Obama!" argument makes no sense. Don't those two things usually go together?

FTFA: Women are voting for Clinton and blacks are voting for Obama because we all look for people like us, who think like we do, understand our experience and, once in office, would be more likely to make decisions with which we agree.

There are sexists not voting for Clinton and racists not voting for Obama, but I stopped reading after this sentence.

The writer is obviously too smart for the likes of us.

She's allowed "identity politics" to eat her brain.

Women, sheesh. Can't win no matter what. Everything is kool unless it gets in HER way.

With very, very minor tweaks you would be voting R if you vote for Senator Clinton.

Republicans - Stuck in the 50's
Democrats - Stuck in the 60's

Why are white men giving their vote to Obama over Hillary Clinton?


Because she's a self centered, vindictive, hypocritical biatch queen with a control fetish a mile wide. Question farking answered. Get over it.

I would vote for Condoleezza Rice, twice.

What does that make me?

Molavian: So my choices are to be racist or sexist this year?

welcome to the wonderful world of political correctness.

So if 80% of white voters voted for hillary we would be racist but if 80% of black voters voted for Obama we would just ignore it.

Oh dude, don't hold back. You're going easy on her.

But here's why you can't win the argument with someone like the author of TFA: that almost seems to confirm what she's said, and she'd call you on that. "See! Men can't handle a woman in power!"

But I agree with you, and I actually felt much the same way about Mitt Romney: I just can't stand people who are too obviously willing to say whatever or take whatever position they think will get them the most votes. It has nothing to do with Hillary's sex -- it has to do with the fact that she's a vote whore.

/"see! he called her a "whore"! white men think of women as whores!"
//get your biatch ass in the kitchen and make me pie
///"see! he just wants women to be his domestic slaves!"
////etc. etc.

Whats wrong with being sexy?

author of the article is a twatwaffle. trying to create drama where none exists.

Barnacles!: author of the article is a twatwaffle. trying to create drama where none exists.

No, the author sounds like a True Believer. Kind of like how people can still believe that Bush is a great guy, or that communism can work in the real world, there's a certain segment that really DOES believe that Hillary can do no wrong because she's a woman. I don't even pretend to understand the mindset of a fanatic like those people but I do try to keep an eye on them. I wouldn't want people to mistake their ravings for anything remotely resembling factual.

Gay?

Counting this article, my white male self voting for Obama has been called a sexist because of it about...22 times now?

/mom and twin sister are both for Hillary

panfried: What does that make me?

Someone who understands the experiences of a black woman from Alabama, a Russian area scholar and White House official with a deep need to protect the reputation of a wanna-be Texan from Connecticut?

/cause we only vote for people like us

Why are older white women such racists?

I've got a gut feeling that Clinton was really expecting to run against a white male like Edwards (or Gore, or Kucinich(?!)). Running against a black man kinda makes playing the victim card really crass.

And Hillary was really hoping to keep playing that victim card.

panfried: I would vote for Condoleezza Rice, twice.

I'd do more than vote for it

I'd rather vote for GWB than Hillary.

A dumbass.

Molavian: So my choices are to be racist or sexist this year?

I just wish I could make that choice every year!

Well, I was going to make some comment about her being some sort of rabid feminist, and that may be the case, but it looks more like she's a single-issue voter, and Hillary falls more in line with her beliefs.

hmmm... (new window)

WTF, I can't just vote for the candidate I like best anymore?

Oh wait, I live in Michigan. Since the party fuxxord my primary, I had to go vote for Romney just to monkeywrench that primary.

As a white male, I'm getting a kick out of....

After reading the article, it's no wonder some people lie to pollsters. "So, Mr. Anonymous, are you a Klan member or a wife beater?"

That's right. All the feminists voted for Maggie Thatcher.

Can't I just vote for the person I think will make the better president without explaining myself to some second guessing D-bag?


No?

F*ck. I'm wrong no matter what I do.

Bowen: Can't I just vote for the person I think will make the better president without explaining myself to some second guessing D-bag?

thats what I plan on doing.

Hillary is racist for trying to stop Obama's candidacy.

Are you saying that she's voting for Clinton because she hates Arabs?

Because she could have just written that in her article and saved us all the trouble.

There are 16 female Senators and 7 female governors now. Not enough, but there is one black Senator (that'd be brother Obama). Most of the black reps have black-majority ridings. There are no woman-focused districts, but dozens of women in the House of Reps.

My very Republican state has now elected two female Democratic governors. We (the Dems here, at least) also just went 70-30 for Obama.

I'm voting Obama cause I like him a whole damn lot. He's done a lot. Hillary will be crucified in the general, on, among other things, Bill's last-day pardons that the Justice Department argued against, but Hillary's brothers were paid to lobby for.

T-Servo: Are you saying that she's voting for Clinton because she hates Arabs?

She could have, but the "blowing up Arabs" contingent isn't quite as strong as the "stop oppressing women" at the moment.

That really farking pisses me off. Has it occurred to the author that she's sexist for blindly supporting a terrible candidate because she's a woman?

of course not.

Either an oil magnate or a farking idiot.

Mugato: That really farking pisses me off. Has it occurred to the author that she's sexist for blindly supporting a terrible candidate because she's a woman?

Probably not. And she would most likely violently disagree with that assesment if confronted.

Hillary isn't a bad candidate. If she were running as a positive-change outsider and shunned the corporatism as Obama has, I would gladly vote for her. Nothing to do with her sex. Swing and a miss, lady.

So, was everybody being racist when they refused to support Jesse Jackson's run back in the day?

Even my black family? Weird.

Good catch.

The blacks supporting Obama because he's black are racist.

The women supporting Clinton because she's a woman are sexist.

Important information.

The experts tell us that men, the testosterone voters, care more about issues such as strength and power. When pollsters asked voters which candidate they viewed as the most qualified to become commander in chief, the answer was Clinton by a huge margin. (It doesn't seem right to call her by her first name, as most people do, when thinking of her commanding the mightiest military force in the world.) By this measure, men should be siding with her. Could it be that Obama's call for a placid non-confrontational future is more appealing to white men? Or could it be that many men simply cannot countenance the image of a woman in a position of enormous power?


I can't quite figure out the point of this article, but it seems the implication is that we can scientifically prove that white men should prefer Clinton, so since they don't it means they're sexist.
