New Hillary ad: Never mind her failures, elect her because she's not a boy!

Hillary's substance free zone.


I would love to see a woman elected President. One glance in Thatcher's direction and you'll see how powerful a smart, strong, and decisive female leader can be. That said, if we're going to elect a woman, we should be looking for all the same qualities we want in any other candidate. She should be an honorable, intelligent, and resolute woman who holds America's best interests near and dear to her heart. In other words, she should not be Hillary Clinton.

But, since Democrats only care about identity politics, they don't think any of that matters. According to a new Hillary ad, we've had 44 "boys" in the Oval Office, and that's at least 43 too many. Forget about the fact that Hillary and her supporters are still unable to name even one of her alleged accomplishments. Ignore that nagging voice telling you Hillary is a greedy, entitled, and most of all untrustworthy political opportunist. Elect her because "she's a girl." That, by the way, is one of the most anti-feminist message I've ever heard. Who would have thought that we'd live to see the day where we'd seriously be advertising that the worth of a candidate rests solely with her gender? Shouldn't we be electing (or better yet not electing) Hillary based on the merits? If this spot is any indication, you should prepare yourself. Hillary's people know she'll lose if she runs on her record. They're saddled with a candidate whose negatives would instantly sink any qualification-based campaign, so they're going to ride the "war on women" meme like Slim Pickens rode that bomb. Sink or swim, this is all they've got.
