So who thinks that once Hillary's OWN conduct towards those women is made common knowledge


that her support among young women voters will skyrocket?

And people who say that it is baked in the cake for older women voters are engaging in wishful thinking.

Hopefully, as the truth bubbles up, it is not too late.
Unfortunately, Trump will have endless grist for his bully pulpit.

and poor lying Paula Jones. Oh and let's not forget that pillar of virtue Linda Tripp. BTW of the three only one, Flowers was dismissed by Hillary as lying and wait for it, she was lying. No she didn't have a 14 year affair with Clinton. She had sex one time with him. So, yes she called a lying gold digger a lying gold digger. All I can say is good for her.

7. You and the others in Sanders's camp have gleefully listed them all -- and often.

Let's not pretend that your approach is any cleaner than the filth spread by Rove.

even if you believe her, and I don't, her own version requires you to believe Hillary knew about it for her words to mean anything other than the standard thank you for supporting my husband. In other words, you have to assume both that Broderick is telling the truth about Bill, and again I don't, and that somehow Hillary knew (without being told by Broderick or anyone else that Broderick knew since Broderick says she didn't tell Hillary) for Hillary to have done anything wrong.

5. The Sanders fan base certainly is making sure to send the most negative message possible.

8. All those why not Bernie posts must be a figment of my imagination. This is a VERY valid concern.

9. Not a concern -- a reality. This thread shows it.

11. Please tell me what kind of conduct you expect from a wife toward the women who have

had affairs with her husband? Should she have formed a support group for them, paid for counseling or what? I would think that her anger toward them and her husband would be a pretty common reaction.

Yes, Bill should have kept it in his pants and I do not excuse his behavior, but these women were all adults and willing participants who were aware of his marital status (unless you believe Juanita Broaddrick's story, which I don't).

As to your statement about young women voters, if there is a person of either gender in this country of voting age who has not heard repeatedly of Bill's indiscretions and impeachment, they are probably not involved enough to get to the polls to vote.
