Hillary seems to have discovered that Hillary is a woman, and sees the advantage therein. "Ah!" Hillary says to herself. "Although I am a frontrunner, which makes it not at all surprising that my panicked Democratic challengers are ganging up on me in an effort to take me down, I can play the gender card, and then I will be untouchable! For what kind of man would hit a woman?" Herewith, a roundup.

Maureen channels Dylan: "Women need to rally to support Hillary and send her money because there are men, men like Tim Russert, who have the temerity to ask her questions during a debate. If there are six male rivals on stage and two male moderators and heaven knows how many men manning lights and boom mikes, the one woman should have the right to have it two ways...If she wants to run on her record as first lady while keeping the lid on her first lady record, that’s only fair for the fairer sex...But she can break, just like a little girl, when male chauvinists are rude enough to catch her red-handed being slippery and opportunistic."

Unsuccessful 1984 veep candidate Geraldine Ferraro hopes to run the country vicariously through Hillary: “John Edwards, specifically, as well as the press, would never attack Barack Obama for two hours they way they attacked her...It’s O.K. in this country to be sexist...It’s certainly not O.K. to be racist. I think if Barack Obama had been attacked for two hours — well, I don’t think Barack Obama would have been attacked for two hours.”

Ruth Marcus is like, "What a buncha BS!": "...a candidate as strong as Clinton doesn't need to play the woman-as-victim card, not even in "the all-boys club of presidential politics," as Clinton called it in a speech yesterday at her all-women alma mater, Wellesley College. I have a pretty good nose for sexism, and what I detected in the air from Philadelphia was not sexism but the desperation of candidates confronting a front-runner who happens to be a woman."

And in the campaign video that started it all, Mozart shows he can change the terms of the debate from beyond the grave:
