Mo Dowd: Hillary Battles Bernie Sanders, Chick Magnet
New York Times ^ | 6 Feb 16 | Maureen Dowd

Posted on 02/06/2016 2:02:02 PM PST by seanmerc

So it’s passing strange to watch her here, getting rebuffed by young women who believe that she lacks idealism, that she overplays her feminist hand and that she is the paternalistic establishment.

Bernie Sanders may be a dead ringer for Larry David, but Hillary is running the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” campaign. She can’t fire up young voters by dwelling on what can’t be done in Washington and by explaining that she’s more prose than poetry.

Just as the Republicans (as a party) do not want Trump to be their candidate, the Democrats (as a party) do not want Sanders.

As Hillary falters, Biden will come in — with the intention of staging a coup at the convention. As long as Biden gets to the convention with some number of delegates, he can take it all after a few rounds of voting.

Young women like an older man who embodies their principles. I remember a crowd hanging in the windows of a room that was much too small for the number of attendees at a Thomas Sowell lecture and college girls lining up to get his autograph on “Migrations and Cultures.”

Personally, I have a thing for Dick Cheney.

Could be worse. A permanent tattoo on the underlying fundament?

Or maybe there is, and Bernie would be forever immortalized.

Kind of like Che Guerava.
