70. It's validating that the media is hyping him because he's black
I really can't see where Hillary has benefited from being female. The sexism in the coverage is unfuckingbelievable. If they made the kind of comments about Obama's race that they do about Hillary's gender there would be exactly this kind of hell to pay. I mean, hell, the pundits make fun of her even though half the voters support her. I've never seen them make fun of a male candidate unless he was gay. Gays and woman are okay to disrespect. Not acceptable to even mention that Obama is black. You're crazy if you don't think voters notice that.
