Just had a lovely chat with my neighbor who is running for a State Rep seat Dems haven’t challenged in multiple cycles here. I had hesitated to tell her about my brief convo with a major local Dem who said that my neighbor was too young, didn’t know what she was getting into and had very young kids.
When was the last time you heard Dems talking about men who are too young and had very young kids. Never?
She was also a delegate this past weekend for the Dem Committee. Her take was that the party is stuck in the ancient past, some people were rude (called our amazing First Selectwoman a bitch) and beyond sexist. One old fuck didn’t want to move seats for our delegation but asked her if she wanted to sit on his lap.
We both agreed — whilst me spraying her kids with my hose — time to get the old fuckers who haven’t advanced to the modern age out of the Democratic Party.
If she doesn’t win this time (even though the fucking seat has gone unchallenged for several cycles) she’ll have name recognition for next time. I want her to win this time.
