I and many others need her to stick around as a reminder of both the first woman nominee of a major party and the bigoted crap from both sides she faced that has yet to be solved.

any goddamn person who uses the phrase “identity politics” when what they mean is “will you please stop yammering on about abortion, please? It makes me feel kinda icky.”

I (and many others) voted for her but just wish she would move on...The Bernie/Hillary wars have done an immense amount of damage to the ranks

The problems with the Dems are not that a woman is still talking.

Majority of DEMOCRATS are what these people (like this writer) refer to as “centrists”.

You mean most of the people that don’t read blogs like this one. I know I have to work with others I may not like to get anything done where I work.That’s how congress is too. That’s how I define myself as a centrist. I can support liberal policies but am willing to whore myself out a bit to get them passed. What’s…

It’s not up to Margaret Cho to alleviate Tilda Swinton’s white guilt. It’s not her job. She is not Representative Asian #4. If Swinton had mixed feelings, she has the money to avoid the role and choose something else. Once she chose to move forward and do the role, then who is benefiting from those guilt feelings,…

Yeah, it was still not okay to seek out an Asian person you don’t know to have the white person guilt convo, and that is really how it looks to me. She joked about it afterward, but the feelings of having to hear/witness/be asked to be in that conversation must have been maddening.

Kanye West doesn’t care about black people

We call that Freedom Foam.

They do realize they’re setting themselves up for a whole lot of spit in their coffee, right?
