In reply to the discussion: I didn't vote for a woman in 2016 [View all]Squinch
(51,215 posts)77. I can understand that, but every male contender I have ever been
presented with has had big negatives for me too. For example Joe trashed Anita Hill, gave us Clarence Thomas which gave us the bush presidency, citizens United, and basically everything that horrified me today.
Yet we all love Joe.
So in a matchup, I'd vote for her.
I dont like what she did, bit I'd vote for her against any of the men being floated.
