Big Slip: Hillary Clinton Refers To The Next President As A "He"
Hillary Clinton had quite a slip today during a campaign event in West Virginia. The Telegraph - a British paper - caught Clinton referring to the next President as a "he."

8. In Hillary's defense (go figure) I'm sure she was using HE in the "general" sense ...
which i find some feminist just dont understand. Weired considering we all, men and women, grew up the same way.

Let the Hillary supporters make a big deal when Obama misspeaks. I cut them both slack.

18. You might want to think about what you just said.
I mean, not exactly a compliment to the voters of W. Virginia.
