The Mad Rants of an Unconventional Soccer Mom

Seriously. You idiots are doing something so reckless and stupid that you will destroy everything that the women’s movement has worked hard to protect since January 11, 1973 – Roe vs. Wade.

For those of you who do not know what Emily's List is, it is a progressive organization that helps pro-choice Democratic women get elected to public office. It is an important cause and I have a lot of respect for them, but they have lost sight of what is important in their blind devotion to Clinton:

"So here we are in the fourth quarter of the nominating process and the game is too close to call. Once again, the opponents and the media are calling for Hillary to quit. The first woman ever to win a presidential primary is supposed to stop competing, to curtsy and exit stage right."

Give me a break. She is behind in every possible measurement and is deeply in debt. It has NOTHING to do with her being a woman. It has to do with her running a terrible and divisive campaign that is aimed at destroying Obama. You know - the progressive candidate that has actually won more contest, more votes, and more delegates and has done it by running a respectable, well organized grass roots campaign.

"Hillary Clinton certainly has the right to compete till the end. But I believe Hillary also has a responsibility to play the game to its conclusion. For the women of my generation who learned to find and channel their competitiveness, for the working women who never falter in the face of pressure, for the younger women who still believe women can do anything, Hillary is a champion. She's shown us over and over that winners never quit and that quitters never win. We'll cheer her on until the game is over. And we hope that when the final whistle blows, we will have elected the first female president and the best president our country has ever had."

"Why on earth should one candidate quit before the contest is finished? Democrats need not be so fainthearted.” Both of the party's remaining candidates have raised tens of millions of dollars. Both have the respect of Democrats nationwide. So why are some Democrats so afraid? We simply need to count every vote, let the remaining states have their say and see the process through to its conclusion."

Afraid? Are you kidding me? There are not enough votes left in the remaining states that would put Clinton in the lead. She says she is still in this because she wants every last Democrat in every last state -- including Michigan and Florida -- to have his or her say. And then what?!? What happens when that glorious democratic process ends on the sunny isle of Puerto Rico? She will still need to bribe and threaten the super delegates to overturn the will of the people in order to win. So much for every vote counting!

Give it up. She lost. Get behind the true nominee and stop insulting my intelligence. No one held Hillary back because she is a woman. In fact, as a white, wealthy person with the last name Clinton, she's been the privileged one in this race. And on top of that, don’t true feminist believe that men and women are equal and should be treated as such. What are you whining about? You are undercutting the womens' movement with this shit.

The only thing that all of these women that are threatening to take their ball and go home should be thinking about is getting a progressive president elected. That should be the bottom line. What do they think will happen to Roe vs. Wade if McCain gets elected? What about the dreams of women that will be squashed by a President McCain, and his replacements for Ruth Bader Ginsburg and John Paul Stevens? What about every woman’s right to control her body, and earn an equal wage? Is Hillary really worth losing everything for?

And let me ask you this, too: what about the dreams of Obama's black followers, the dreams that Hillary is destroying for no reason other then her delusions of grandeur? Don't they count too? Or are some dreams more equal than others…like the dreams of post-menopausal, well-connected women.
