Not impressed with high school charge of groping breast and twice. I might regret saying this but if every high school guy that didn't try to touch my breasts on a date in high school, was close to zero. If you are trying to make Booker a pervert, you have failed.

So you're supporting Brett Kavenaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court.

Gimme a break, you are talking about trying to grab a breast, I don't how many teenage girls experienced that but it is surely different from a couple guys cornering you in a bedroom and holding your mouth with their hand and trying to rip your clothes off and no I did not support Kavanaugh, right from the beginning. I don't know what makes the difference of a teenage boy knowing boundaries and one who doesn't, I do know some did and some didn't. I also know it was and probably still not uncommon that some do not know their boundaries. I also think that there are a lot of grown men who crossed those boundaries as teenagers who ended up different as grown men, it is deciding between who was a dumb kid and you will accept or who crossed the boundaries as a teenager. I found Kavenaugh crossed the boundaries to another level.

having such a poor public image that no one will vote for her - no one of course being an exaggeration - some people would vote for a chimp if it was waving the right flag

She was only unelectable by white people. She got a majority of the votes overall.

And it is precisely because it was white people who preferred Trump over her that I believe sexism was the problem. There doesn't seem to be any other explanation that fits what happened as well as that one. Both Trump and Hillary were not the greatest candidates but when push came to shove white people of both genders preferred the man. I suspect that any white woman would have had trouble being elected.

If Hillary was "unelectable", why is it she got most of the popular vote?

A candidate like Trump would never have gotten the nomination decades ago, nor received enough votes to win the electoral vote.

As far as who should be the Democratic nominee, I have no idea. Things like experience, intelligence, and decency no longer seem to matter.
