      It was not hard to notice the gender subtext of an experienced woman visibly digging her nails into the podium as a smooth, younger, inexperienced man sailed by her on a stream of platitudes. And viewers at home could tell that Klobuchar's barely-contained rage was genuine.https://twitter.com/henryolsenEPPC/status/1230527805093556226 …

      The mostly male pundit class panned @amyklobuchar's ripostes with @PeteButtigieg last night. I'll bet women saw it completely differently. Far from dooming her, this could be the fuel that propels her into the top tier. My latest for @PostOpinions - https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/02/20/forget-minnesota-nice-amy-klobuchars-rage-is-exactly-what-she-needs-right-now/ …

      The identity-politics obsession of Democrats and their pundit class is, as I've often noted, unhealthy, overblown, & frequently disingenuous. But that sort of thing *is* real sometimes. It's quite obvious with the Klobuchar-Buttigieg dynamic.

          The other part Klobuchar didn't quite say but hinted at, on the Lopez Obrador thing: she's almost 60. Not old, but old enough to have the occasional whatsisname moments. Pete isn't, & clearly can't imagine that a person might occasionally forget a name they know.

          That part, I think, was screamingly obvious to everyone over 50 who watched that exchange.

          Agreed. I think it wins Klobuchar sympathy with professional women, but I'll be surprised if it actually moves the campaign needle in any meaningful way.https://twitter.com/LPDonovan/status/1230531532592381952 …

          suspect it does resonate with women, but not sure it moves votes quite like producing Bloomberg's head on a pike. problem for Klobuchar is that Warren had a much better performance overall--inversion of NH. pete is a useful avatar, but he's also not the guy you need to beat.

          “Klobuchar-Buttigieg dynamic” sounds like something from a physics research paper understood by 10 people in the entire world.
