They thought up lots of ways to not vote for the last woman because she was a woman without saying “I can’t vote for her, she’s a woman.” Sure she “wasn’t likeable,” you don’t like women who you don’t wanna sleep with, or who don’t wanna sleep with you, and she’s both. Sure she was tarred with Bill’s shady stuff, but Trump had way worse. And what successful male politician has nothing to regret, even Bernie? What person has been in charge of any aspect of the Middle East without being tangentially involved in bloodshed and chaos? It’s their specialty. Nothing was uniquely disqualifying about her except her vagina. (Not sure if she still had a uterus, hysterectomy is pretty common)
So Kamala will have to make that “weakness” her strength, in a post-Roe world she can defend the right to female bodily autonomy, and also point out the threat to mixed marriage that’s right in there along with the threats to everything LGBTQ+.
