Elizabeth Warren lost by copying Hillary’s victim act
New York Post ^ | March 8, 2020 | Miranda Devine

Posted on 03/09/2020 7:15:14 AM PDT by karpov

There’s a moment in the new Hillary Clinton hagio-documentary on Hulu when the former presidential candidate complains that it took her an hour every day to have her hair and makeup done during the 2016 campaign.

“It’s a burden, believe me,” she says in Episode 2 of ‘Hillary.’”

“I calculated it, and I spent 25 days doing hair and makeup, and I knew that the men I was running against don’t have to do any of that. Get up, take a shower, shake their head, they were ready to go.”

But no one forced her to endure high-maintenance grooming. She could have jumped out of the shower and been good to go, too. She just chose not to.

This is the problem with too many liberal women. They campaign as trailblazers, but at the first sign of trouble, they cry victim.

So when Sen. Elizabeth Warren dropped out of the presidential race, having failed to inspire Democrat voters, Clinton blamed “unconscious bias and . . . gendered language.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also tried to explain away Warren’s failure: “I do think there’s a certain element of misogyny that is there.”

Rather than lament that by throwing in the towel, she was breaking a promise she made to girls, Warren should have said she had no regrets. Instead, she emulated Hillary by claiming victimhood.

Blaming sexism is pathetic, not to mention illogical, as pollster Frank Luntz pointed out on “Fox News Sunday”: “About 55 to 57 percent of the Democratic primary and caucus electorate are women, so if women aren’t voting for her, by definition, how can it be sexist?”

On Super Tuesday, in her home state of Massachusetts, Warren lost women to Joe Biden by 10 percentage points. Even Sen. Bernie Sanders beat her among Bay State women

Have a question, and I'm half serious. PIAPS complains that it takes her an hour before she's fit to be seen in public because of the hair styling and the layer of paint.

Why doesn't she get a crew cut, and forgo the clearcoat? Most dykes do, these days.

It's not like she is advertising to get laid, like any younger heterosexual woman.

It’s not as though she does it herself, she has “people”
for that.

Toughest part about putting lipstick on a pig is getting the pig to shut up.

She lost because she was a LOUSY candidate.... PERIOD.

Lecturing your audience only plays to people who have spent too much time in school, period.

And a coalition of old Hippies and Younger kids doesn’t a victory make.

And lets not even get into the fact you lied about your ethnicity for career gain repeatedly... etc.

So what, you are a policy wonk.. big deal... Policy wonks rarely win... If being a Policy Wonk made you a winner, Tsonga’s would have been the democrat nominee in 1992.

Not sure the “victim act” was the key.
How about “arm waving, screeching and yelling, lying, pandering, socialistic”?
She’s had a losing strategy, since she lied about being an Indian at Harvard.

Seeing some pics of Hillary from the 70s, she spent zero time on personal grooming. Question is, why did she decide she needed to do all this cosmetic work, when at one time in her life, she clearly rejected such ideas?

No too long ago, a story like this would NEVER have been written in the MSM. Since PIAPS lost they’ve thrown her away like a used vacuum cleaner bag. Fauxcahontas was just the next in line!

The fake Indian lost because she got caught faking Indianhood for prestige and profit.

There are two sides to The Whole lipstick on a pig thing. Traditionally people focus on the viewer’s opinion and not the pig’s.

As for Hillary I think we can trace her caring to when the First Ladies portrait was put up and then promptly taken down because though being the youngest her ankles were the fattest.

There has to be the remains of one somewhere, she got caught hiring a male prostitute in Huston several months back.

Kind of like her having the beer though.

She probably had to have someone explain to her that is supposed to work.

You could smell her through the pho6os.

Lizziewatha’s sanctimonious harping and screeching wasn’t a winning formula. That plus her faking Indian ancestry too much to overcome. Both Hellary and Lizziewatha were once Republicans morphing into DemoRats and carpetbagging to other states for political gain. Good riddance to both of them.

Forget sexism------these liberated types have a deep-seated aversion to admitting they weren't good enough for the job.

Any job.......nevermind being president.

Does anybody really believe screeching, wild waving Warren has presidential presence?

When Hillary called Trump supporters "irredeemable deplorables" she personified the political truism:
Its not whether candidates seem to like people, its more like the electorate wants to be assured the candidate likes THEM.

No, she lost because she wore that same red thing every instead of a nice freshly aired-out pastel-colored pantsuit.
