Really?
And I find it curious as to who is coming up to her all the time and saying this. Republican constituents likely don’t speak to her - why would they? And I can’t see her constantly finding herself in social circles where she’d even be exposed to republicans, so it’s fair to surmise that she spends most of her time around fellow democrats. If that’s the case, then who are all these democrats who’ve said they wouldn’t vote for her because she’s a woman? That seems like kind of a big deal for that mentality to be so pervasive among dems. Either she’s lying, or dems have a serious problem with sexism in their rank and file voters. Which is it? |
| Sexism is bad in our country. |
| Dems worry about other people not voting for her because she is a woman. Dems are super worried about not catering to everyone else. |
No, that’s actually not fair to assume. Many Democratic senators and representatives make it a point to make themselves especially available to Republican and Republican-leaning voters as they take their job very seriously. |
I wouldn't vote for Elizabeth Warren, and its not because she's a woman. Shes not very relatable and could learn a lot from someone like Michele Obama. |
| I’ll take things that never happened for 1000 Alex |
Cool. So she wasn’t talking about you. |
| Define "all the time." Honestly, who would talk to someone like that? I've never heard anything like that said to a woman in 40 years. |
Yeah, NO When was the last time David Trone or John What’s-his-name or whatever other democrat currently occupies the 6th(?) District in MD - the gerrymandered one that has all of bright red western MD plus a tiny little sliver reaching down into MoCo to add sufficient blue votes to keep it Dem majority - when was the last time anyone representing that district ever spent more than a token amount of time in Hagerstown, Finzel, Frostburg, Williamsport or Cumberland? Dems don’t want to be around those people. |
Who needs competency, dedication to principles and intelligence if they aren’t “relatable”? We are an idiocracy. |
David Trone represents the 6th district and had a town hall earlier this year https://trone.house.gov/2022/01/15/as-virus-rages-on-rep-trone-takes-up-constituent-questions-at-covid-town-hall/ |
+1 It’s the old “who would you rather have a beer with” question. |
Guess what, Elizabeth Warren fan? Some candidates have all of those qualities. Being able to relate to others while communicating one's positions is pretty darn important in any position, office, job, etc. |
How sad that you think a candidate can't be intelligent, competent, dedicated to principles, AND able to relate to others. |
She’s quite relatable. I saw her in person in 2002 at a campaign stop for a different candidate and she was amazing. |
