By railroad, do you mean hold the same closed primaries they’ve held for the last 50+ years?

I would back the fuck away from Nazi references, ta.

Jordan Peele and Chelsea Peretti got hitched!

I think that’s an optimistic read. She’s up by double digits in most California polls, with the exception of a recent Fox News poll that has her only +2, but I’d take that one with a grain of salt. FiveThirtyEight has her at 88% chance of winning. It’ll probably be by a smaller margin than NY or Penn., and while…

Her convention speech was INCREDIBLE. A full-throated, proud, gracious and enthusiastic rallying cry for a future President Obama and condemnation of Republicans. Bernie would do well to watch it and take some notes.

This is the epitome of grace in defeat.

I’m making some assumptions about the kind of older women you’re taking about, but when Bill was first running for president in 92 Hillary got a lot of heat for not being a conventional First Lady candidate. She was a children’s rights lawyer and an outspoken feminist and, memorably, once dismissed media demands for…

Yah, that has been hugely disappointing. I hope he’s more active in downticket races after the primaries, when his loss is definitive . It feels like it should be a natural plank in his campaign, and it’s confusing and irritating that it doesn’t appear to be.

Thank you kindly for not being an ass about being a progressive in a swing state. I mean, we want allies and sympathetic ears in power, right???

Because it’s a democracy and you’re allowed to change party affiliation when you want to and the Democrats, bless them, actually respect that and thus would never stand in its way.

Nah, girl. What he’s been doing to the GOP candidates is piddly kid shit compared to what the GOP elite have done to her for 25 years. Hillary’s going to eat him alive.

“It’s a diverse group of centrists and the center-left who figure that Clinton’s consensus politics isn’t cynical but inherently fair to the most people. Even people they disagree with.”

No. That is the rule.

I know this is a way that people seem bizarrely reluctant to put it but: YOU GUYS. WE ARE ELECTING THE FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT.

“When you again consider that almost no information about this project was leaked before its release, you have to believe that some pretty serious nondisclosure agreements were signed—and/or that the loyalty people feel for this woman knows no bounds.”

Condi Rice was my high school graduation speaker and it was weird. We were all protesting the Iraq War and she told stories about growing up black in the South and when she was done I was like “HOW DID YOU EVER BECOME A REPUBLICAN????????”

Respect to people and their social media of choice (I’ve certainly got mine), but Reddit is a fucking cesspool that is destroying humanity. It is where the ignorant white man who is too embarrassed to go to 4chan reigns supreme. Ugh.

Sure, and your idealism is nice, but in the reality we live in we must 1. intentionally work against racism and sexism and that means using the power we have to intentionally lift up marginalized people whenever we can and 2. stop trying to invoke coded arguments like ‘qualifications’ to push back against people doing…

I’m surprised. Prince was enough of a control freak, especially about his music and business, that I thought he’d have had a will since his 20s just in case. Huh.

This is stupid. I’m sorry, this post is fucking stupid. Because if there are 15 qualified women and 15 qualified men for the job, the whole point of the promise — the whole point of the fight against sexism — is to intentionally hire the women because women are underrepresented despite being half the population.
