Now Daily Beast's Patricia Murphy Kicks Hillary In the Pants

There are all these ways of trolling her. Ms. Murphy's title is 'Why are Women Ditching Hillary?'

Nice maneuver that is. After all the very title begs the question. Are women really ditching Hillary and if so where's the proof?

Her answer is to cherrypick certain polls. She looks at Vermont and Iowa and see that Clinton's numbers among female voters is down. Of course as voters in general are.

She doesn't' show that women are leaving in greater numbers in those two states.

"The slide among Democratic women in New Hampshire and Iowa mirrors a series of national polls that show Clinton’s performance among women on a steady downward trend. A CNN / ORC poll conducted in December of 2014 (PDF) showed that Clinton entered the Democratic primary contest with an enormous advantage among women over any opponent, with 75% saying they’d vote for Clinton and just 2% for Sanders."

"As Sanders’ crowds at campaign rallies grew into the thousands and Clinton was dogged by media questions about her email server over the summer, Clinton’s support among Democratic women nationally dropped to 51% by the end of August, with Sanders’s up to 27%."

Ok so a drop in 10 months from a 73% lead to a 24% means women are 'ditching Hillary?'

This crystallizes the silly way the media spins Hillary's polls. They seem to think that her lead should have sayed 75% to 2% forever or 'women are abandoning Hillary in droves.'

Obvoiusly Bernie is better known now-name recognition-and she is now running unlike then-you always  lose points once you start running. If Biden does run then his numbers will drop too.

Then you have to add Hillary has had absolutely abysmal media coverage for 6 months. In light of that she's holding up pretty well.
