Can’t I just NOT LIKE someone?

Do I have to be labelled a anti-feminist, ageist, sexist or racist because I don't like a political candidate?

Can my not liking Hillary just be that? It's not anything specfic, it's not that she's a woman, it's not anything realy, I just don't like her.

Okay okay I hate the wide eyes possessed smile she gives people when shaking hands in crowds that seems to say "here is me acting to pay attention to what you're saying, or caring that you're here". (It's if anything a bad politician face and she should really try harder.) And that she's acing like she didn't vote for the war… it's okay to admit you were fooled with the others Hil. But My not liking you has nothing to do with what isn't between your legs.

And of course I can't vote McCain after Bush, and his recent efferts to snuggle with him. I do genuinely like the man, her reminds me of my deceased father in law,  I hold him no Ill will. I actually in some ways even admire him - but I just don't like this politics and recent moves to seduce the far right when he started doing a couple years ago and leaning away from his moderate stances. It has nothing to do with age.

I'm just sick of the blamescaping (did I make this word up just now?).

    You can like or don’t like whomever you want, and you don’t owe anybody apologies or excuses for it!
    The older I get, which is pretty old now, the more flinty and opinionated I get. I know I piss people off, but I like myself better at this point in my life than I ever did before.

    From now on, you get credit for “blamescaping.” Love that word. Sort of a political/emotional version of “manscaping.”

    I can’t be the first person to come up with it, or am I? It’s too good a made up word for me to have made it up.

    or it could be the fact that Hillary simply panders to whomever she’s speaking in front of. Like this for instance:

    *shudder*

    Glad she’s OUT.
