Clinton: an embarrassment to women in politics

After reading Elayne Clift's column about Hillary Clinton having “earned her seat at the table,” I felt compelled to respond.

Google the following names: Juanita Broadrrick, Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers, and the infamous Monica Lewinsky.

Hillary Clinton tolerated from a man exactly the disgusting, misogynistic behavior that we should be teaching our daughters not to tolerate: constant cheating, womanizing, and total disrespect for his married partner for life.

Hillary not only stood by him like a doormat, she publicly attacked the women and defended this chauvinistic, womanizing pig she calls a husband.

It seems to me she did so to hang on to the political power and influence afforded by her connection to him, all at a very steep cost to her as a human being.

Hillary Clinton is not someone any girl or woman should look up to and certainly has not demonstrated that she “is a woman of extraordinary intelligence” or that she has “sound judgment,” as Clift claims.

Hillary is an embarrassment to women in politics and a shameful example of a woman clinging desperately to a cad of a man because she is terrified she doesn't have the ability to do what she wants to do without him by her side.

I'm not saying whom you should vote for. But Hillary Clinton should hang her head in shame, and anyone supporting her should reconsider.
