It makes perfect sense to me that leftist voters in New York are droolingly pig-stupid and put Socialist Barbie in office because she was "a fresh, exciting face and we need women of color in office just because they're women and they're color and that's important for some reason we don't know". It also makes perfect sense to me that leftists around the country are droolingly pig-stupid and will cheer and agree with something that makes no frigging sense whatsoever because they didn't read it, don't understand it, and really don't give a damn anyway so long as it sounds "caring" and like it has "feelz".
It makes sense to me. It's just really sad.
It's like I've said repeatedly on USMB: Democrats vote in representatives on the same grounds they voted for their favorite American Idol. Don't worry about their policies, their record, their past, what they want to do in the future. Just vote if they look and dress good.
If this bimbo had the face of Elizabeth Warren, she'd barely get local media attention yet alone national. She'd still be where she belongs, waiting tables at a restaurant somewhere.
