ASHE SCHOW: Hillary Clinton needed men to rescue her ‘women-only’ event.

Hillary Clinton tried to hold a “just for women” fundraiser on Monday, but few women signed up, so she had to open up the event to men in order to fill seats.

The $2,700-per-person event was supposed to attract 125 women, but only 50 bought tickets by the Sunday morning deadline, so the deadline was extended and opened to men, according to Page Six.

Clinton took photos with guests and spoke for 30 minutes about topics such as America’s drug problem and “mental healthcare for college kids,” according to Page Six.

If that wasn’t embarrassing enough for Clinton, CNN released a new poll showing Clinton’s favorability rating plummeting since November. Back then, she was only hinting at a presidential campaign, and her approval rating was at 60 percent. But since she announced (and has been in the news for scandal after scandal), her approval has dropped 14 points to 46 percent. . . .

As I wrote back in March, Clinton’s biggest problem comes from being in the spotlight. She’s much more popular when the focus is not on her. Once the focus is on her, people see that she’s just not a likeable person. And coverage of her scandals is far outweighing any positives she may have (the “first woman president” cheer only goes so far).

Yes, the “Vote Vagina” approach appears to have its limits.
