12. OK, I feel somewhat vindicated

In another thread, on the subject of sexism directed against Elizabeth Warren, I made an argument that ended up concluding that the preponderance of sexist antipathy was coming from the camp of the only other remaining “progressive” campaign. They were her competitors for progressive bragging rights.

In response to some comments, I walked that back. Now, based on EW’s own views, I guess I can walk back that walk back.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
