COME AND SEE THE SEXISM (AND RACISM) INHERENT IN THE LEFTISM: DNC Changes Debate Rules to Exclude Only Woman in Race.

The exclusion of Gabbard comes one day after Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) suspended her campaign, leaving the race with only one female candidate and prompting extensive soul-searching and criticism from Democratic women and media figures.

“I so wish that we had a woman president of the United States, and we came so close to doing that,” said Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.). “I do think there’s a certain element of misogyny.”

Former presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) omitted Gabbard entirely in her reaction to Warren’s departure, telling reporters, “Look at what’s happened. There are no women currently in this race.”

Of course, as Glenn noted on Wednesday, “racism aside, let’s be honest: They can’t allow her on that stage, or the stale geezers who remain will look even staler and more geezerish.”
