Except that she's done it before and she knows she can do it again.
Talk about flip-flopping:
  • During 1992 Presidential Campaign she maligned Tammy Wynette saying she wasn't a "stand by your man", cookie-baking kind of gal in response to the Flowers affair.
  • After the Lewinsky business she DID end up "standing by her man"
  • She also released a number of cookie recipes throughout her career as a political wife, most notably whenever she was being criticized for not being ladylike enough. http://clinton2.nara.gov/WH/EOP/Firs...l/cookies.html

She's pulled this "tea and cookie" thing off and on for years. It all depends on the way the wind is blowing whether she's a pants or skirt kind of gal. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but look at Nancy Pelosi or Geraldine Ferraro, they aren't/weren't playing games with their gender - they just are who they are (or CRAZY Ann Richards!). For the record, I do much prefer to look to the Kay Bailey Hutchinson, Elizabeth Dole models in politics - but even on the Dem side, the women don't have to play the game she's been playing.
