Feminists worry about Hillary Clinton

Newsmax.com reports that feminists won't support Hillary just because she's a woman. This seems reasonable. You can read the article yourself if you want, but I'd like to post a section that caught my eye:

But some feminists object to Clinton's decision to stay with her unfaithful husband, former President Bill Clinton, and others argue she fails as a role model by riding his coattails. And while Clinton supports women's issues such as equal pay, abortion rights and family leave, some don't think her stance is strong enough.


I've heard it said that Bill always had a wandering eye. OK, I guess all men do, but Bill's was apparently a bit more wandering than is acceptable. Perhaps Hillary made a political decision to stay married to him. If she is elected President, it will perhaps have been worth it. If she could not get noticed on her own, that reflects poorly on our society.
