I like her and admire her for certain things but like you said, I don't think she's all that electable.
The Clinton name brings out rabid, insane hatred from most Republicans and even some moderates ,so they'll vote against her on name alone. Being a Dem, I have issues with her so I understand the frustration of other members of the left as well.
At least we have valid, sane reasons to vote against Republicans. I am way more focused on next year but agree with you about the "gender voting" as I remember how 2008 was around here.
I remember standing in line in GA for 2 hours to vote for Al Gore in 2000 after work and had to listen to 2 women and a guy behind me rake the Clintons over the coals, mainly about Monica and Vince Foster. 
I remember getting home and being so stressed out and had gone to the grocery store and bought a bottle of wine and a pregnancy test prior to voting as my husband and I were trying and I was late. Well, the wine went unopened and with the whole Florida fiasco I was like, shit is this a sign our kid is going to be Damien from The Omen? Luckily he turned out okay.
