<<<Bob, I think we are having a misunderstanding. What I am saying is that whatever your opinion of NOW is fine with me, whatever, but that most politically aware people have been talking since the beginning of these scandals about how feminists were not criticizing the president. Now that is beginning to change, and Patrici Ireland and NOW are symbolically very important in that this is an erosion of his power base. Does that make any more sense?>>> I understand where you are coming from but unfortunately the feminist movement as portrayed by NOW is far from being a significant power base for Mr. Clinton. Don't you remember what the talk of the town was at election time? Don't you remember who was supposedly backing the President in great numbers. Don't you remember the term "soccer mom"? Now tell me if you have heard a single representative from a women's organization that could possibly represent this contingency. That is where you would have found Mr. Clinton's major support base and we all know that there isn't a single spokesperson shown on any media outlet to represent that block.
