re: #90 Buck

Nice, and yet during the actual debate, despite her “lack of background” she did very well, against someone with more background.

I think it IS very relevant to this story that she did well. Certainly hindsight allows us to call her names…but at the time most thought she did very well, and they did not take into account the fact that Biden had the advantage (that no one would do any fact checking and make him answer for lies).

Schmidt can say anything… no back up, no facts… just trash… and the media just repeats it as fact.

Shameful.

It’s the ‘despite of’ bar as a point of evaluation that I find shameful. That the bar was set lower for her. They even changed the debate rules citing that as a consideration. That is shameful for anyone running at that level of office.
