Hillary Clinton - How sexist is it?

Call it what you will, but long story short, the Democratic Party asked Hillary to step down so they could nominate Barack Obama. This time last year, Hillary was all but promised the nomination. Suddenly, the “super delegates” who once couldn’t wait to see Hillary be president, shifted to Obama. Adding salt to the wound, now the Dems have asked for Hillary’s help to get Obama elected.

Has that ever happened to you? Were you ever the frontrunner for a promotion and, in the end, were not only passed over for a less qualified male candidate, but then also asked to help get the man who got the promotion get up to speed?

How did you handle it? Let me hear from you so we can pass along your tips to other women.
