as a wedge between women and Obama. I even remember the refusals to vote for Obama.

The statements that they will refuse to vote Hillary Clinton that I have seen come from the Progressive wing of DU who are up in arms that bonafied "Progressive" has not come forward.

I look forward to the official start of the campaign when we can compare polices rather than identities.
