You are correct, she absolutely did not sleep her way to the top. She slept her way to getting elected DA in San Francisco and then used the usual route to climb the ladder from there. Sadly, it's not a a trope if it's true and in Harris' case it's all there in black and white for anyone who bothers to check to see.

No, the criticism was of her locking people up for engaging in the same marijuana use she was engaging in herself. It's the hypocrisy of it that people criticize. I would think that would be patently obvious.

Glad to see you still like to slap labels on people, I guess sexism is the new one now that the racism accusation has lost steam.
Quote:No one has said Gabbard did anything other than switch her positions to more align with the current republican views and that she hasn't been a Democrat for a long time.
Oh, and that she's the most unintelligent Democrat at the national level. Let's not forget that!
Quote:To me, many of the policies she now supports makes her a bad candidate...and that's on her.
In your opinion. Much like Dill all you're spouting is your personal opinion. At least you're not belittling her intelligence like your buddy, so that's progress of a kind.
