37. Someone has lost track.
My point is that virtually all the misogyny thrown at Hillary comes from the right wing.
Misplacing that anger on her primary opponent or others in the party isn't helpful.

By bringing up these attacks without the proper context, your legitimate outrage becomes diluted.

What would you have the party do? Hold a press conference denouncing the nutcracker, et. al? It would be counterproductive- giving a wider voice to the slurs than the authors could do themselves.

However, I have zero doubt that if asked about them they would be soundly condemned. As a matter of fact, the sheer prima facie lunacy of the nutcracker, C**T, Iron My Shirt assaults makes unprompted comment unnecessary from the party that supports women's choice and has as their House leader, a woman.
