As a thorough ally, my only earnest question is whether America is too homophobic for a gay man to reach the finish line. I sincerely think Hillary Clinton would have had the needed margin had she been male. He will have similar entrenched resistance.
I think he projects a bit of elitism via intelligence, and he’s a bit too truly “liberal” for me, but at present his seeming competence and good communication heavily counterbalance that. He’s still one of several who wouldn’t bother me to be top of the ticket.
The challenge the Dems have is that many of the folks in their bullpen have bigotry working against their electability.
Harris and AOC are women…and a bunch of the swayable voters in the swing states won’t vote for women.
Pete Butegig will have to overcome homophobia.
Newsom might not have to overcome bigotry, but his trollishness isn’t going to do him any favors with moderates or others who want a move towards sanity.
There are other potentials…but they need to get moving soon if they’re going to build the name recognition and a viable campaign organization and war chest.
It’s hard to say if she is stupid or just not pragmatic. If she believes the Green New Deal was sound policy as opposed to aspirational trial balloons, then not too bright. But all the same, she’s no Tuberville.
sure there is selection going on, but the clips they show of her she seems well prepared and clear in her statements questioning. in hearings where she asks things, I think the questions sound like the result of someone who prepared.
there’s morons in congress, but she isn’t one of them.
Can you give some examples of her being an idiot, I get you don’t like her politics or polices but what evidence is there for her being an idiot. I mean have she claimed that drug prices have come down 1300%? Did she claim she teleported to a Waffle House? Has she introduced a bill to ban chemtrails? Has she claimed an international cabal has a weather machine to control the climate to the detriment of republicans?
