I really don't like, for obvious reasons, the use of the word "witch" to describe an evil female. If you mean "bitch," then say "bitch," and don't use my religion as a slur. Almost none of the women called "witches" are, in fact, witches, and women who are, in fact, witches generally have nothing at all to do with the stereotype.
That said, I certainly got a, you should pardon the expression, cackle out of the closing line from this story by Rebecca Traister in today's Salon:
But here's a message from the women of New Hampshire, and me, to Hillary Clinton's exuberant media antagonists: You have no power here. Now be gone, before somebody drops a house on you!
Of course, that was Glinda, the "Good" witch.

Try the top link on this google list for video of Hillary you wanted. Don't think the whole debate is there--will take some watching.

*sigh*
Just one small nitpick. It's Glinda the Good Witch.
Glenda was the female name of the Ed Wood movie transvestite character. It's a little thing, but we don't need to hear *that* little comment, too.
