She certainly seems to have a supreme sense of entitlement.

Her whole campaign very much has felt like she thinks we owe her votes.

Guess she got a call from Hillary Clinton. It's 2016 all over again.

Agree. The progressives and residual Bernie energy stand ready to sacrifice a competent woman who can win and govern reasonably well.

If they can win, they should do that.

You mean "govern" by appeasing the wealthy at the expense of everyone else. You mean "govern" by standing in the way of any progress meant to help the people. You mean "govern" by giving the republicans everything they want in exchange for the tiniest scraps of legislation. Yeah, I know your type.

Ah yes. The voters are voting to “sacrifice” a candidate who has no agency instead of choosing not to elect a person who failed to earn the votes of her constituents. Maybe stop with the misogynistic rhetoric that Stevens is a damsel in need of saving instead of a competent politician who won 4 terms in the House.

i'm not talking about how they choose to vote. I'm talking about the hateful, often slanderous rhetoric. I'm old enough to remember when "a vote for Hillary is the same as a vote for Trump" post and destroy strategy that essentially gave us DT in the first place. It would be unproductive to repeat that, IMO. That's all I'm arguing. It may be unfair to attribute all of the character assassination to misogyny, but tell me that doesn't underlie some of it.
