Now that Clinton is effectively out, let the excuses begin
Former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro still blames sexism for Hillary Clinton's loss.
Hard to believe, considering that Hillary won big time -- in fact, by the biggest margins of any of her states -- in Kentucky, West Virginia, and Arkansas, Appalachian states in which sexism and "traditional roles" for women are still very much the norm.
Also hard to believe because the most educated, and ostensibly least sexist (or any ist), section of America voted overwhelmingly for Barack Obama.
Of course, Ferraro is unable to cite any instances of Barack Obama being sexist toward Hillary Clinton. In Ferraro's mind, sexism is the only clear answer. Clinton's campaign couldn't possibly have failed because people want Obama to be president more than they want her to be president.
