If the Democrats were a serious political party aiming at power (instead of a job program for insiders), they would think about how Feinstein's hug of Lindsey Graham hurt them with down ballot voters.pic.twitter.com/0sIaIIk884

I think it sucked and completely took the wind out of any sails they had to stop ACB’s confirmation, but did that many people see this for it to have an actual impact? If Graham/Harrison had been closed I might agree but it was a blowout
yeah we gotta be consistent and clear on "bad symbolically" and "bad consequentially" and this is at most the former
Sorry but one of many big things Democrats perpetually understate and misunderstand that right wingers do get IS the role of symbolism, theater, and performative (or revealing) gestures in defining who looks powerful or powerless!
I think the bigger problem than the symbolism of the photograph was her pisspoor management of the campaign against ACB’s confirmation
Sure, the photo is merely a vivid example of the larger management failure.
