As for that last remark, it reminds me that I probably wrote this first for the political_wank community on the old Journalfen before posting it to Daily Kos.

I concluded it by writing "I don't recall Clinton playing up her sex appeal to enhance her power. As you can read, Palin does it over and over again." When I posted the entry at Daily Kos, where other uses can edit the tags (labels here on Blogger), one of them added the tag "sexual objectification of politicians." I agreed that it was a fair characterization of the post.<br /><br />BTW, thanks for linking to this entry and the one about Vox giving advice on how people can do their part to fight the pandemic. Vox has since added another video on social distancing, which I plan on using Tuesday.Pinku-Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247618351725715844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-76414297582039920662020-03-22T14:25:39.617-04:002020-03-22T14:25:39.617-04:00I think sex appeal drove interest in her
This doe...<i>I think sex appeal drove interest in her</i><br /><br />This does seem to be an issue with women politicians. Sarah Palin surely wouldn't have remained such a big deal for so long if she had weighed 300 pounds. It's very odd that people care what politicians look like. They're asking for political power, not a date.Infidel753https://www.blogger.com/profile/10965786814334886696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-61966979040826997992020-03-21T14:31:02.516-04:002020-03-21T14:31:02.516-04:00True, but just as much as John Delaney got, and I ...True, but just as much as <a href="https://crazyeddiethemotie.blogspot.com/2020/02/john-delaney-dropped-out-and-people.html" rel="nofollow">John Delaney</a> got, and I think he deserved even less.<br /><br />As for her appeal, I'll share the comment I left at <a href="https://mikk2.wordpress.com/2019/10/19/if-the-nesting-doll-fits/" rel="nofollow">Nonnie9999's blog, Hysterical Raisins</a>.<br /><br />"Out of all the candidates, I’d only vote for Tulsi in a swimsuit contest. Even then, I think she’d lose to Mayor Pete, who I’d also vote for in a butt-kicking contest."<br /><br />Yes, I think sex appeal drove interest in her — that, and a willingness to go on Fox News. On a serious note, she was the most anti-war of all the candidates except for Bernie Sanders, who I think she tied with on that issue. A lot of Republicans are "America First," which means they are isolationists. She would appeal to them on that, too.<br /><br />As for your last comment, that's a matter of taste. I guess that means you're not a fan of Creme de Cacao.Pinku-Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247618351725715844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-19333908338168365572020-03-21T10:42:25.522-04:002020-03-21T10:42:25.522-04:00Far more detailed attention than Gabbard ever earn...Far more detailed attention than Gabbard ever earned.<br /><br />I could never figure out what her game was. She never attracted much support from democrats in the primaries, but Republicans seemed oddly fascinated by her. I guess that fits with her being the most conservative candidate. I've seen some speculation that she was part of some Russian disruption ploy and would eventually run as a third candidate in the general -- but no, she's endorsed Biden. So, so much for that idea.<br /><br />Gaack!
