A little mud won't stop Hillary

Last night Hillary Clinton attended an Emily's List fundraiser where she asked the question, "Isn't it time for a woman to be president of the United States?"


Well.  Past time really. 


According to Rutgers Institute for Women's Leadership, of all the self-governing countries in the world, women are either a president or a prime minister in 11 percent of these countries.  That's not  much to brag about, but it is something we haven't been able to accomplish here in the US. 


Yet.


2016 is the year it will become a reality.  Already the mud is thickening, but Hillary's got her boots ready.  I imagine multiple pairs. "Hey Bill, can you fetch my shit kickers from the back of the closet?  The purple ones." 


In the absence of a primary challenger, these faux scandals will have to do.  Expect the opposition to revisit and revise past stories of sex, lies and now missing emails.  That's all they got. 


I admire Hillary and trust she is the leader for our country and the world in this moment in time.  Because she's a woman?  Hell, yes!
