6. Hillary has to be more careful than anybody else

She speaks up--she is yelling
Her wardrobe picks are laughed at (she wore a bathrobe as one example)
She shows her intellect and she is too calculated
She shows strength and she is too cold or wooden
She shows her human side and she is pandering
Her relationship with her husband is ridiculed (she obviously wasn't giving him any as an example)
And on and on

No-one faces the malicious, sexist scrutiny that Hillary Clinton does. Keeping in mind how she constantly must remain more self-aware than anyone else--she is obviously working harder than she is given credit for. This only adds to her qualifications as far as I am concerned, and impresses the heck out of me. How does she manage? I wouldn't be able to resist verbally tearing off more than a few heads!
Wow! She is incredible!
