[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why nobody talks about the elephant in the room - not the GOP elephant.  How electable is Buttigieg?  How many socially conservatives and socially moderates will vote for him, whether in the Democratic primaries or in the general election?[/quote]
[b]We don’t talk about electability when it comes to white men.[/b] (Trump was an exception, but only because of his personal qualities. Otherwise he fits the presidential archetype: white, male, elite, tall.) [b]“Electability” and “likability” are constructs applied only to women.[/b] [/quote]

You sure this is the hill you want to die on?  :lol:
