The Spectacle Blog
The phenomenon I wrote about yesterday now gets examined by syndicated columnist Froma Harrop:
The woman who shouted "McCain in '08" at the Democratic rules committee was speaking for a multitude. After mounting for months, female anger over the choreographed dumping on Hillary Clinton and her supporters has exploded -- and party loyalty be damned. . . . What's dangerous for the Democratic Party is that, for many women, the eye of the storm has moved beyond Hillary or anything she does at this point. The offense has turned personal. . . .Live by identity politics, die by identity politics. John McCain cleverly finds occasion to praise Hillary.
