With calls mounting to quit and superdelegates jumping aboard Senator Obama’s campaign because of Senator Clinton’s statistically inability to reach enough pledged delegates, she has pulled out what many believe has been her trump card throughout the campaign, gender.

From the Telegraph:

n comments leaked to the New York Times, Mrs Clinton is said to have told aides that she would not be “bullied out” of the White House race and in a conversation with two allies compared her plight to “big boys” trying to bully a woman.

During a weekend interview with the Washington Post - arranged at her request - she was asked whether Mr Obama could beat John McCain, the Republican nominee.

She responded: “I’m saying I have a better chance. You cannot as a Democrat win the White House without a very big women’s vote. What I believe is that women will turn out for me.”
