In this hour, callers and I discuss our views on the idea of the first female president entering the White House. Some people have reservations about Hillary Clinton, but many attacks against her seem to have an air of sexism surrounding them.

Women serving in the Senate say Hillary Clinton is being subjected to an unfair, sexist double standard on the campaign trail.

Criticisms of Clinton’s tone of voice have become prominent in recent weeks, stirring strong feelings among Senate Democratic women who say they too have had to battle the stereotype of the shrill female.

We even include audio of the great Bob Woodward and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough attacking Hillary Clinton's "style and delivery" because "she shouts."
