Well, the evidence of her electability is that more people voted for her than voted for Sanders, and that more people voted for her than voted for Trump. I think that’s pretty good evidence.

You mean there were a couple of total nothingburgers that Bernie Bros said was “collusion”, as though a political party selecting its own candidate (the sole purpose of the party in the first place) is somehow collusion.

Yes, I confess that in 2013, when I wrote that comment, I hadn’t heard of AliExpress. Had you?

Wouldn’t it be sexist to have an action movie with a female lead where she’s never in any actual physical danger, because the writers won’t script a female combatant actually taking any hits?
