Executives Support Hillary – Sorta

There was a story in the Wall Street Journal about the executive women of America and how they identify with Hillary Clinton.

These are the women who have sacrificed a great deal and put up with a lot of crap to make it to the boardroom. They have put up with the discrimination, endured the sexual harassment, condescension and humiliation. Walked the narrower line of acceptable behavior in the workplace and stood fast in the face of judgement by both men and other women.

Executive women make up 19% of the executive order in America, which is both phenomenal and not yet where we want to be.

They have my gratitude.

These women identify with Hillary Clinton and internally seethe every time someone criticizes her cleavage, hair, and fashion sense, or ask her inane questions about enjoying pearls or diamonds.

Yet they hedge their bets by donating to John Edwards’ campaign or declare themselves “undecided” based on this sentence: What if she can’t win?

So can she? Win, I mean?

She can if we support her.
