You should stop reading those sites.  It would be better for you.  And better for us here at BT.  After all, if we wanted to be involved in what goes on at those sites, we'd go to those sites. :)

Although I was thinking of going back to TalkLeft occasionally.  Wadda ya think?

After all, I am white.  and a woman.  Maybe that is the place for me.

But the notion that all female Clinton supporters became "angry white women" once their candidate lost -- to the hysterical extreme where even lifelong Democrats would desert their own party en masse -- is itself a sexist stereotype. That's why some of the same talking heads and Republican operatives who gleefully insulted Mrs. Clinton are now peddling this fable on such flimsy anecdotal evidence.

The fictional scenario of mobs of crazed women defecting to Mr. McCain is just one subplot of the master narrative that has consumed our politics for months. The larger plot has it that the Democratic Party is hopelessly divided, and that only a ticket containing Mrs. Clinton in either slot could retain the loyalty of white male bowlers and other constituencies who tended to prefer her to Mr. Obama in the primaries.

This is reality turned upside down. It's the Democrats who are largely united and the Republicans who are at one another's throats.

In my opinion, when you link to work of this type you are feeding the sexist stereotype that there are scores of women out there who would vote against their own values instead of simply a few women who would do that (and in fact some of them were Republicans to start with and aren't really going to be voting against their values).  I say to you again, that your (very admirable) work against racism sometimes causes you to take stands that either do not fight against sexism or feed into sexist stereotypes.  

In addition, as Mr. Rich says, this is part of a larger false narrative that we are divided.  

I know that you don't care about 'framing'.  So let me make this very personal for you - by linking to these types of opinions you are intentionally feeding the larger false narrative that Armando is feeding by his insistence that Hillary must be on the ticket.
