If you ask me, I’m upset no one picked up that this consideration was sexist and racist, although it is indeed the best choice for her to win, which reflects how bad US can’t get over race and gender.

    Yeah I almost used her as an example but I didn’t want to deal with the inevitable “it’s so she isn’t confused with her husband.

      I was having this conversation the other day. Pelosi came up as a counterexample.

      Now I’m not sure where the line is between subtle disrespect and simply using the more distinctive part of a candidate’s name.

        I do see a lot of republicans just call her “Nancy” but she definitely gets more references to her last name

          Huh, I haven’t really heard people call her “Nancy”. Last time I recall her coming up amongst Republicans, it was “Pelosi” with a reference to the attack on her husband.
