And that was probably one of her biggest flaws: the only things that made her different from Bernie were her Female Cred and her past as a conservative. The former wasn’t enough to differentiate her as a politician and the latter shone through on occasion and helped sway the rest to Bernie.
Interesting take. I didn't pay her a whole lot of attention to be fair. Outside of reading through her campaign website a bit I didn't even really know what she was all about. It definitely irked me that a lot of people wanted to vote for her just because she's a female. I mean... I don't know... I don't give a fuck what's between your legs; are you right for the job? And since I was creeped out by her bipartisan switch, I never gave her a real chance I guess.
Anyway, my fear was that everyone who's dropped out would be endorsing Biden, and a few of them have. He's the safe option I suppose. I'm convinced, however, that if Biden runs against Trump, we'll be looking at another four years of the Spray Tan Sultan.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
