I just don't want to see Hilary as the president.

9. careful what you wish for. Vanity Fair "The Comeback Id"

Old friends and longtime aides are wringing their hands over Bill Clinton’s post–White House escapades, from the dubious (and secretive) business associations to the media blowups that have bruised his wife’s campaign, to the private-jetting around with a skirt-chasing, scandal-tinged posse. Some point to Clinton’s medical traumas; others blame sheer selfishness, and the absence of anyone who can say “no.” Exploring Clintonworld, the author asks if the former president will be consumed by his own worst self.

11. You go to the polls with the voters you've got, not the voters you wish you had.

And sadly, most people will make up their minds based on silly little things. The most you can do is try and communicate to them the way in which your candidate will help with their specific personal problems, and hope they've got enough self-interest to use that as their vote basis, rather than whether or not they'd like to 'have a beer' with the other candidate, or whether their superficial understanding of the repercussions of a prior presidency leave them with a good feeling about them.

12. Save me from women who preface their comments w/ "My husband says. . . "

Whenever I hear an adult woman humbly defer to her husband's POV, I think I'm back in the frigging fifties with Leave It To Beaver on reruns.

I'm active in an AAUW chapter (that's American Association of University Women). Our members are, with rare exception, older and retired from various professions - which is why we now have time to actively participate in groups like this. We have some excellent programs promoting STEM career opportunities to middle school and senior school age girls; raise money for grants to new college grads entering STEM graduate programs, support to homeless women/women vets. We monitor and meet with local and state officials on education issues. We work with League of Women Voters on candidate nights, get out the vote, voter registration, etc.

However we have a few members who joined just for social companionship, have never had to be self-supporting (Hubby is a professor/doctor/lawyer) and have the zero empathy for human suffering of any kind. For example, when we collect items to put together care packages for homeless women, they'll comment stuff like, "Well, my HUSBAND says poor people are lazy and just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps." Of course, those women & their husbands are all Republican.

And the woman quoted in the OP sounds just like one of them. Although she is different in that she supports Hillary. That is not the case for any Democratic woman I know.

14. But, but, all voters

in SC are highly informed on the real issues and would never vote against their best self-interests based on silliness like this?!
