      This is very insightful. It explains the Erick Erickson freakout. https://twitter.com/MaxKennerly/status/1045124718536404992 …

      Nah. (And that's not what @mandel said.) A lot of them would react very differently if it was a Dem nominee. For Erickson (who opposed Trump) it's mainly about Roe. He genuinely believes the accusations are evidence that any SCOTUS nominee likely to overturn Roe will be smeared.

      I think Cathy is right that these never-Trumpers would react very differently if we were talking about a Dem nominee, but perhaps that's also because Democratic politicians, as a concept, are not nearly as emblematic of traditional white blue-blood privilege.

      In general, yes. But conservatives can always point, with some justification, to Ted Kennedy as evidence that Democrats have tolerated and even lionized upper-class entitled males with a record of horrible behavior toward women

      They're not wrong about that. The pass given to Kennedy (and to a lesser extent Clinton) is a blot on Democratic party and liberalism.

          The knee-jerk defense of Franken from a certain (primarily older) set of traditional Dems had echoes of that as well, but I'd like to think that's becoming an increasingly intolerable sentiment among liberals.

          FWIW, I think Franken's defenestration was a total travesty.http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/disgraced-al-franken-victim-sexual-mccarthyism-article-1.3681965 …
