Turns out, voters don't mind 'two old white guys' (Tulsi still running)
The Hill ^ | 3/08/20 | BERNARD GOLDBERG

And then there were two - unless you count Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), who has about the same chance of winning the Democratic Party’s nomination for president as does Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

The last (serious) woman candidate in the race - Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) - has dropped out. The only openly gay man in the race dropped out a few days earlier. All the candidates of color are gone - again, unless you count Tulsi. And, now, all that’s left are two white men, both closer to 80 than 70.

Right from the jump, Democrats bragged about their diversity, about how - unlike the Republicans - their candidates were a reflection of the “real America.”

But a funny thing happened on the way to this summer’s convention in Milwaukee. The voters had their say. And they weren’t as fixated on skin color and gender and sexual orientation and age as were the coastal elites of the party, or their pals in the liberal media.

It’s only a matter of time before we hear howls from the left about how, despite all their efforts, Democrats wound up with - as the dismissive saying goes - “two old white guys.”

It's like Tulsi is invisible. Amazing.

The Democrat Party only has eyes for Hillary.

An old white woman.

What I find so amazing is how many are letting themselves get bent over the bench by this Tulsi thing.

She’s every bit as rabid leftist as the worst of them. She’s just smart enough to be quieter about it.

And so many falling all over themselves.

Just like for Romney.

Just like for Jeb.

Just like they sucked down and swallowed everything pumped out by the Never Trumpers for so long.

Etc.

And so on.

And so forth.

How much attention should be lavished on a total also-ran who hasn't dropped out for whatever deluded reason? Buttigieg, etc. did a thousand times better than her and they're out.

Tulsi is the only one who makes sense.

Che would’a taken Biden and Burnie out back for target practice.

Gabbard provides a great example of how leftists claim to promote diversity, yet change the rules to silence her voice.

I honesty don’t care if she’s heard from or not. But, if you have an opportunity to skewer the left on their hypocrisy, take it. Make the most out of it.

She is invisible, because everything she stands for is represented by the communist Bernard Sanders, whom she supported in 2016.

She isn’t needed.

Yet she stays in the race.

Because her entire life is dedicated to one goal:

Advancing her own political career.

It’s all about Tulsi, the gun-grabbing, open-borders, baby-butchering, tax-and-spend, amnesty-granting, socialist Progressive Brahmanist.

Seriously?

Of course. Democrats have disappeared her. She should have known better than to think she would get a fair deal from the PTB.

Warren is a serious candidate and Gabbard is not.

What more needs be said about the Democrat Party? LOL

I was wondering what her positions were, but thanks to your post no more.

Tulsi has been thoroughly rejected by Dem voters. Whatever her personal agenda is for staying in the race is irrelevant. She should suspend her lifeless campaign and accept reality.

Attn: All Republicans, Conservatives, Trumpsters....get out and vote for POTUS, Donald J. Trump on the primary election days, even though he really has no competition to contend with for his POTUS slot!!!

You can kill the Democrat Party Establishment & Candidates, politically by having Trump out poll not only the Democrat primary winners...but in some cases the entire Democrat votes cast for POTUS candidates. Do it!!!

The wife and I did it in Florida with our “mail-in” ballots and Trump is slaughtering the Democrats with ease!!! Case Closed, get out and vote for POTUS, Donald J. Trump...vote mail-in, vote early, vote on primary election day....Democrats should vote for Tulsi Gabbard and Trumpies should vote for the Trumpster!!! God Bless America!!! Biden and Sanders are empty suit zeros...period!!!

So, two old white guys equal one old white woman?

Geriatric politics is alive and well in the “new” Democrat party. Nobody under age seventy need apply.
