Huffington Post: "Russert Leads Boys in Hillary Hit Job"

Article here.

After Hillary's disastrous performance at the most recent democratic debate, supporters are crying victim! Apparently the "boys" [including moderator Russert] were being unfair with political attacks on the front runner. Its about time Obama and Edwards chivalrous fear of Hillary has eroded. I suspect when things get more difficult for Hillary, the victim card will be a constant theme. Excerpt:

"When you throw in the continual hammering by Edwards, who had his best night, not on issues, but because he played attack dog towards Clinton, not to mention Obama jumping in when he could get up the courage, last night's boy brawl showed more about Clinton than anyone is willing to say. She can take anything dished out at her. The innuendos didn't stop her. The attacks didn't phase her publicly, though at one point I thought she was going to really come out and call it what it was, nothing short of a two-sided attack, with Clinton the target, including from "moderator" Tim Russert who had no business taking sides. But he did anyway."

And of all things, a female aide saying this! Yes, kinder, gentler. Tell me, what exactly did those nasty men do to that poor woman? I'll tell you what they did: they treated her like they would have any man who was in the lead.

Of course we know, that's not fair!!

What's the matter Hillary? Can't compete with the big dogs?

Figures. She got where she is because she's a woman. And now when a couple men stop treating her differently because she is so, she can't handle it. If she had earned her way like these guys did, she'd be more acclimated to dealing with this.
