As Hillary Clinton seeks to break that “highest, hardest glass ceiling”, she is finding that – at least in this state – women voters aren’t so eager to help her shatter it. In New Hampshire, even Clinton’s own staffers have given up hope on victory there, where Bernie Sanders commands a double-digit lead.

“No president can walk in there and make changes unless millions of people become engaged in the political process in a way that we have not seen for a very, very long time”, he told more than a thousand supporters gathered in a community college gymnasium in Portsmouth, New Hampshire on Sunday.
“I’ve got so many different styles of selfies”, she told them. “I think women my age are confident that a woman will soon be president and do not view it as the milestone it really is”.
Bernie Sanders almost managed to battle Hillary Clinton to a draw in Iowa last week, a result few could imagine when he jumped in the race past year.
“Tomorrow, if we have a good voter turnout”, Sanders said before the opening of the New Hampshire polls, “I think that we’re going to have a very, very good night”. “I have to say it may not be a particularly efficient way of doing things”. “It’s time for a political revolution and it’s time to pay attention to the middle class because we’re diminishing”. Weirdest was former Senator and Hillary Clinton backer David Pryor (D-AR), father of Sen. And Clinton suggested in the interview with MSNBC that her current team will stay.

LifeZette Editor-in-Chief Laura Ingraham blasted Bill and Hillary Clinton for their cynical efforts to deploy feminism to attract support from female voters.
Albright scolded young women for failing to back a woman for president. “Keep her tied up for a year”.
But other attempts to court young women voters have not gone so well.
Pioneering feminist Gloria Steinem also shared her frustration with a young generation of women supporting rival candidate Bernie Sanders.
“I have no idea what they’re talking about or who they are talking to”, said to Maddow, who dismissed the POLITICO report as “gossip” in asking the candidate about the story. – Sen. Cory Booker, D-NJ, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Bill and Chelsea Clinton. “I was amused the other day”, she said.
Many, however, are drawing the obvious conclusion that refusing to release the numbers indicates that Clinton didn’t win the popular vote in Iowa.
His win will likely prompt rank-and-file Democrats – and some major campaign donors – to give his candidacy a second look as the race shifts to contests in Clinton-friendly states like Nevada and SC.
Mrs. Clinton remains far ahead of Mr. Sanders in SC, polls show.
After the comments provoked a firestorm, Ms. Steinem apologized. Not to mention lumping groups like Planned Parenthood into the “establishment”.
Dittmar said Clinton has been better than her surrogates in trying to appeal to young women. After all, Albright was not out there encouraging women to support Carly Fiorina or Sarah Palin because they are women. “I don’t know if that’s micro-aggression, Brett, or macro-aggression”. Bernie Sanders, the quirky US senator from Vermont, was not on Clinton’s radar.

“Like my fellow young feminist women, I recognize that voting for a woman because she’s a woman is sexist, just like voting for a man because he’s a man is also sexist”, said Javidi. Say what you will about Sanders’ costly and fantastical policies, but he truly believes what he is advocating for. “People make up their minds in a lot of ways”. Or, she doesn’t want to be treated differently.
