Michelle Goldberg:
Some have suggested the whole thing was part of a Clinton scheme to
ratchet up racial tensions in advance of the Pennsylvania primary.
That's possible, but there's a simpler explanation. Several otherwise
admirable, even heroic women seem to identify with Clinton so
profoundly that they interpret rejection of her as a personal rebuke.
Stung, they accuse Obama supporters of flighty illogic, but there's a
powerful, extra-rational emotional current in their arguments, a
flailing in the face of an imagined betrayal. In their anger, they're
lashing out in all kinds of counterproductive ways, doing far more
damage to feminism than a Clinton loss ever could.
