(4,458 posts)I, for one will not be reduced to the "vaginal vote". I a woman And a senior citizen, my husband, my sons, their wives, my granddaughters, grandsons, my sister, my cousins--are all voting for Bernie based upon his decades long support for "vaginas, testicles, elderly, kids, veterans and Much more"...ALL of us.
Would the outcome of any piece of legislation have been different if Sen Clinton, Sen Obama had been there due to their missed votes? No.
This is one of the lamest attempt's yet to hold Sanders to a higher standard than they are willing to hold those in identical circumstances.
Why do we not also discuss Sen Clintons/Sen Obamas attendance record Jan 2007-Jan 2009? It demonstrates SOP, after-all.
I ask you again: If Sen Sanders had been there to vote yesterday-Would his One vote Changed the outcome? Yes or No.
