Hillary as Sister Souljah

Peggy Noonan constrasts Margaret Thacher's leadership with Hillary Clinton's lack thereof. Noonan mentions Hillary's attempt to portray herself as a victim of sexism during the last Democrat presidential debate and comments on the reaction:

It's all kind of wonderful, isn't it? Someone indulged in special pleading and America didn't buy it. It's as if the country this week made it official: We now formally declare that the woman who uses the fact of her sex to manipulate circumstances is a jerk.
Dare we say this was Hillary's Sister Souljah moment - even if she was the Sister Souljah?
