Kamala Harris isn’t the best when it comes to debates, but fortunately she has something that Mike Pence doesn’t have: the media in her corner.
She hasn’t lost tonight’s debate yet, but Politico is doing their best to help cushion the blow:
POLITICO ~ As Kamala Harris and Mike Pence face off tonight in the first veep debate, we take a look at the history of sexism on the debate stage. Can it change going forward?
See what they did there?
tsar becket adams ~ We call this “setting expectations."
tsar becket adams ~ Refs making calls hours before the game has even started.
Hey, being prepared for Kamala Harris performing poorly means having to make excuses for her performing poorly before the performance even begins.
kerin glebus ~ Omg. Really?? If Harris is critiqued it’s because of her policy positions not her race or gender.
Nope. It’s gotta be sexism. And maybe some racism sprinkled in. There is literally no other explanation for Kamala Harris sucking at debates.
Dodd ~ Battlespace preparation for labeling anything Pence says that might hurt the Democrat ticket as 'sexist.'
Hellion 2172 ~ "Let's go ahead and get that first crutch out there ..."
Flea Bailey, Esq. ~ Already making excuses?
Street Guru ~ Starting the damage control already?
It’s never too early!
Stop Making Sense ~ Y'all are terrified about how this is about to go down aren't you politico?
Smatt ~ The media has already decided the winner. If Pence is tough, she wins because sexism. If Pence bends over ala Romney, she wins on points.
Maybe Politico and their fellow Kamala Harris supporters should take a look at themselves instead.
Jc ~ It won't change as long as ya'll pretend any criticism is sexist.
