Reply #4: Well, I disagree with the entire tone of this article

I've mentioned many times how fabulous Hillary Clinton looks, but once that is said, all issues about looks and dress drop out.

She's found a great look. I'm sure she has consultants who have chosen wisely regarding outfits and makeup, and I wouldn't begrudge her at all if she had a hairdresser on the trail.

But there are several myths here. The more minor one is that it takes women a lot more time to put themselves together. I'm sure I'm not alone in complaining that my husband, who barely has any hair left, takes twice as long as I do to get ready when we dress to go out. He has to shave, which takes longer than the "five-minute face" we girls have all perfected. What else he does to prolong the effort is beyond me. But I am always ready first.

I'm sure Hillary can grab one of the dozen lovely suits she's acqired for the campaign trail, don it quickly after a shower, put on her five-minute face, and have the hair guy touch her up. Getting dressed is not rocket science for women these days.

Clinton's feminine gender has had no influence one way or another on my opinion of her: she's smart, she looks good, she doesn't need three hours to prepare for that. She is every bit the equal of any male candidate.

I have differed with her on policy and tactics. And that is what we should discuss.
