still bitter that Franken resigned, would not consider voting for gillibrand unless she's the nominee, and am currently trashing all the threads over this bullshit. my guess would be that this is the case for most DUers. there were people on both sides at that time as well.

this is dirty tricks, ratfucking.

I watch crime stuff on youtube including sentencing hearings. I just now listened to a victim impact statement in which the mother of a murder victim went on at some length about her 17-year-old daughter's way of hugging people. How she appreciated the power of a hug. Physical affection. Nobody from my understanding is claiming that Biden's touchy feely ways are sexual abuse. Why are we talking about this?

I've been in line at the grocery store when the person behind stood too close and it discomfited me. So I have a larger personal space than others and probably less than others as well. This is just a bullshit thing. #MeToo is a real thing, but this over the fucking line. I know the pendulum swings and overcorrections are real, but please!

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