In 1970, writer and activist Robin Morgan wrote "Goodbye to All That," a famous feminist screed. Today, outraged by the double standard applied to Hillary as opposed to all male politicians, she has written "Goodbye to All That No. 2." You can read it here. Here's the first paragraph:
"During my decades in civil-rights, anti-war, and contemporary women’s movements, I’ve avoided writing another specific “Goodbye . . .” But not since the suffrage struggle have two communities—joint conscience-keepers of this country—been so set in competition, as the contest between Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama unfurls."
