What Went Down At The December Democratic Primary Debate

For what it’s worth, I found Obama’s comment morally off. He said: “Now women, I just want you to know; you are not perfect, but what I can say pretty indisputably is that you’re better than us [men].” I … don’t know if I believe that! And I think you could make the argument that it’s a bit condescending. It sort of feels like it falls into the category of male politicians saying the person they admire most is their wife, but then their wife has no power. This is probably not a topic for a live blog but human beings have the same capacities for good, evil and mediocrity, regardless of gender. Anyhoo … back to politics.

“I’d also be the youngest woman ever inaugurated,” says Warren in response to the question regarding her age if she were to be elected president. That was good.

For better or worse, I like how Biden just says how his experience is an asset instead of trying to get cute in his responses to the age question.
