"At one minute the strong woman ready to lead, the next, she's the woman under attack, disingenuously playing the victim card as a means of trying to avoid giving honest, direct answers to legitimate questions," Michelman wrote of Clinton.
I don't know about you, but I'm plainly sick and tired of people trying to play the "victim" card when they aren't even CLOSE to being victims themselves. The Jena 6, Al Sharpton, Anyone on MTV, Larry Craig, etc, are all perfect examples of people who whine about the "unfairness of it all" when something bad happens.
How about you man up (regardless of gender) and take your lumps like an adult? I would much rather have a politician tell me "I don't know" rather than trying to sidestep an issue. If you don't know, tell me. If you have a position that's unpopular, explain to me why you've taken that position.
Honesty goes a very long way in life, and politics is one of those areas. If you're open and honest about your opinions and explain to people why or how you've come to that conclusion, people will respect you a lot more and are much more likely to vote for you.
It's been know to work before.
