didn’t entirely get ‘it.’


BTW—very nice photo at link of Chelsea and students.


I was reading full article from this DU post. Lots of rude comments expressed in this thread toward Chelsea and mother—and her family.{Also a DU thread saying only an Obama vote can get ‘family values’ back in the WH this morning}

But as I read this article I came across a few sentences that I think are wonderful in that whatever one says about the Clinton’s, a healthy strong mother-bond exits between Chelsea and her mother.

Chelsea Clinton Talks Policy in Obama Territory

…..There is no asking Ms. Clinton, who does not give interviews, exactly why she threw herself into her mother’s bid — which, if successful, will rob her of some of the privacy she is said to cherish.

But a furious, provocative essay that Ms. Clinton mass-blasted to her friends and acquaintances on Feb. 4 provides clues. She wrote that she did not agree with everything the essay’s author, Robin Morgan, a former editor of Ms. Magazine, said. (Ms. Morgan argues that Mrs. Clinton has faced not only a sexist double standard but also “sociopathic woman-hating.”)

But until jeering men insulted her mother in New Hampshire and the news media made light of it, Ms. Clinton wrote, “I confess I didn’t entirely get ‘it.’ ”
