America Punished Elizabeth Warren for Her Competence
The Atlantic ^ | March 5, 2020 | Megan Garber

In November 2019, as the Democratic presidential candidates prepared for the primaries that had been taking place unofficially for more than a year and that would begin in earnest in February, FiveThirtyEight’s Clare Malone profiled Pete Buttigieg. In the process, Malone spoke with two women at a Buttigieg event in New Hampshire. One liked Joe Biden, but felt he was a bit too old for the presidency. The other liked Buttigieg, without qualification: “I feel he’s well positioned,” she explained. “The country is ready for a more gentle approach.”

America didn't punish her!

It was those low-minded, bigoted Democratic voters who made that decision.

The rest of us didn't have a chance to do so ...

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this 'crocodile-tears' lament. Almost as much fun as watching the liberal melt-down when Trump won the Presidency.

Dems are something: 'Da Nang' Dick, Lieawatha, 'Foul-mouth' Schumie, and Nazi 'Ding-Dong' Pelousy. And these are the stars of the Party...

No, Americans disliked Warren because of that horrible claim about Native American blood, which actually offended many Native Americans in the Midwest to no end.

No. America didn’t have anything to do with it. The Democrats didn’t vote for Elizabeth, not even her own state.

I agree with you. I will never vote for a woman as president because there have been no good examples as of yet.

To any candidate anywhere:

You do not have a right to my vote.

You want my vote, you convince me to vote. Get over competence, sex, color, age, etc. Those do NOT count.

That’s okay. After all, she didn’t build that campaign.

America is just too bigoted to vote for a competent female Communist.

Why is it that, whenever some failing liberal loses an election, the MSM has to do a bunch of articles to show that they were the victim of us deplorables? That we “punished” her somehow?

The quote from her 2014 book reveals it all: a series of empty platitudes masquerading as a platform.

That together with the lies about her personal life were, and should have been, too much to put up with.

Nobody punished the witch. Her angry, twisted face was too much to watch.

No, she lost in part because she was applying for a job that requires a person to deal with big giant ongoing international cat fight. She seems to put a lot of faith in other people doing their jobs and obeying rules, which they don’t always do. Some of her ideas are not bad, but she cannot leverage power to save her butt, or her campaign. This is a needed skill in a president. The first female president is going to probably borrow liberally from madman theory, ala Elizabeth I of England. Whoever she is, she is no girl scout.

Professors have been getting paid to lie to their students and these professors think everyone believes their lies.Obama realized too late that the US citizens were on to him.
