An Ohio-based group of Democratic Hillary Clinton supporters say they’ll work actively against Barack Obama if he becomes the nominee, arguing that Clinton has been the subject of "intense sexism" by party leaders and the media, specially "NBC affiliates(MSNBC)".
The group — "Clinton Supporters Count Too" — organizers Cynthia Ruccia and Kimberly Myers both from the Columbus area, say they’re coordinating women, men, minorities, union members and others in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida and Michigan — all important swing states next November — to impress upon Democratic party leaders what they think has been outright discrimination — and not of the racial kind.
"We have been vigilant against expressions of racism, and we are thrilled that the society has advanced that way in accepting Obama as a serious candidate," Ruccia was quoted as saying by The Politico, a Washington newspaper. "But it’s been open season on women, and we feel we need to stand up and make a statement about that, because it’s wrong."
With growing calls for Clinton to leave the race, she said, women feel like "we’re being told to sit down, shut up, and get with the program."
On Thursday, they appeared on Bill O'Reilly's "The Factor" to discuss their "defections" from the Democratic Party should the party fail to nominate Hillary Clinton.
