There is an essential paradox about successful women in politics that we, flat-footed men, have never really grasped. To succeed in anything, but especially in the cold brutality of politics, you have to be hard as nails, ruthless, willing to win at all costs. Life and love have taught us that these are qualities we associate mostly with the selfish hardened, ambitious male. But the few women who do possess these traits are unusually blessed. They are after all still female, and as such have also those feminine qualities that speak to a different kind of leadership – maternal solicitude, selflessness, enduring loyalty.
