re: #160 Occasional Reader

No, that’s not “all she did”. She explicitly said that a “wise Latina” would reach “better” decisions than a white male. “Better”… her word, not mine.

And no, I don’t think this is the equivalent of a SCOTUS nominee who is a Klan member or some such thing. But it’s a strike against her, and we shouldn’t pretend she said something other that what she actually said.

And if a white republican nominee said the same thing with the references reversed the left would be going bat shit crazy over this. The hypocrisy thing with the left is what bothers me most about this issue. Deep down I don’t think she is racist but what she said should be considered racist by the left, but it isn’t.
