Quote of the Day:
Have we gone from the "Year of the Woman" to the "Year of the Sweetie"?
"Watching Hillary take a beating and come back, watching mostly (but not entirely) male reporters and pundits demean and dismiss her, question her motives, her appearance and her sexual orientation, has brought home for many women not how far we've come, but how far we have to go. . . There is nothing sweet about the way Hillary has been covered in this campaign, about the way she has been attacked, about the meanness and mean-spiritedness that has been in evidence from the beginning. If women didn't understand why we need a woman President when we started this march, a good many of them surely do now."
-- Susan Estrich
And from Lynette Long: "MSNBC is called the "Obama News Network" by various blogs. CNN claims neutrality, but bias seeps through: In my view, its commentators Amy Holmes and Roland Martin are blatant Obama supporters; David Gergen and Donna Brazile are also Obama supporters; and Carl Bernstein and Campbell Brown don't like Mrs. Clinton."
