Kamala Harris' big question mark

DES MOINES, Iowa — Monica Reyes had a straightforward question for Kamala Harris: What’s your strategy to help immigrant workers gain U.S. citizenship — people like her mother, who fled domestic abuse in Mexico, sold blankets at county fairs and then opened a shop in Iowa?

Harris is a product of California campaigns, where TV ads and name ID are king. So one of the biggest unknowns about Harris is whether she can consistently nail the retail and performance pieces of presidential campaigning — and at the same time exhibit the nimbleness and policy depth to match the very high expectations she’s already being held to.

But in her early-state debuts, Harris has at times compensated for her lack of precision and detailed policy prescriptions by lapsing into prepared remarks, turning to legislation she supports — even when it indirectly relates to the question — and leaning on anecdotes to connect with audiences. “She has a sense of humor, and her laugh is utterly disarming,” he said. “However,” he added, “I thought she lacked specifics.”

Nice hatchet job. Too likable and unprepared. Curious to know if any candidate has unveiled a comprehensive immigration reform policy yet?

You don’t analyze men this way. Actually you don’t analyze Anyone else this way. Bias rearing it’s ugly head?

Just stop.

HOW can connecting with voters be a fault HOW?! 🤨

ccadelago, we have a neo-Nazi in the White House. Tone down the misogynistic rhetoric and do something positive for the country.

Is this like 'Hillary Clinton is always prepared - sometimes to a fault'? Because I think it is, and you should delete your account.

Nonsense.

Trash takes get no clicks

Let me help you out Politico... Kamala Harris is a bright and strong woman of color. Her intelligence knows no bounds and will pave the way to the White House. She connects with her audience.

NotHavingIt — Do better,

She's doing the same thing Hillary did: vague, no details, no real answers. If she wants to be President, she has to realize that no matter how much Wall Street $$ you have behind you, this is a new day and we want REAL ANSWERS.

Sorry Politico - you want to talk about excess? You’re too sexist beyond a fault.

Politico isn’t warm enough. Politico should smile more.

The male writer’s head is literally too big!!! Sometimes to a fault 😒🤦‍♂️

She is fake as all hell.

🙄

This is so transparent.

Do you have ANY female employees you can ask for advice? Because holy cow.

WTF, , WTF

THIS IS NOT NEW NOR A PROBLEM THIS IS WHY PEOPLE GIVE YOU SHIT

It’s already starting. Stop it Politico. Just stop.

Again with this misogynistic crap? You’re part of the problem. Stop being part of the problem.

what the actual fuuuuuuuckkkk does that even mean?!

So you're complaining that she's too likable?

Perhaps what motivated Christopher Cadelago to write that Senator Harris in essence is too good for her own good could be as simple as not having any news to write about or as nefarious as you want it to be.

She is not a team player. I’m with Mayor Pete!!!!

Congratulations on your ratio

So sick of the blatant sexism!

So now she's 'too good' at her job...

Wtf is wrong with you? Delete your account

Kamala Harris is a woman - Sometimes to a fault

Very sexist of your publication. For shame....

Give me Kamala's fault anyday...compared to Bernie's bullshit.

Maybe you guys should do an article outlining the exact level of likableness is appropriate for a woman candidate. This shit is just dripping with sexism.

This just in! Likeable people are likeable! ...fucking goons...

Politico puts out a lot of articles - sometimes to a fault

F**k you Politico

What kind of headline is that?

An evergreen tweet.

So basically what you are saying is she’ll never be a”true” candidate because she is a woman.

Wow. It’s almost like a female candidate (especially a non white one) will never satisfy people, she just can’t win, huh?

Delete your account

seeritarun Politico

Dear Politico, It’s this sort of bullsh*t that lost you this reader...

Stop it.

You know what? The next time I want to hear a man's option about a female presidential candidate, I'll give it to him. Sit all the way down.

Oh for fuck's sake

Who wrote this garbage ?

Drivel. Ignore, WE have work to do.

So H too cold K too hot but the marmalade menace is just right. Ok I see you.

Oh dear dear me. She just can't find her balance, can she? Well, let's just pick pick pick away at her, then, Politico. She smiles too little, she smiles too much. Too hot, too cold. Gee, guess we just can't have any woman in positions of power, eh? Mission accomplished, eh?

I don’t even need to read this to know it’s sexist nonsense

Hey bud I know you gotta meet a deadline but cheese on crackers, you can do better than this! Anyway I love you and try to turn it around for next time, yeah? 🙂

Don't do this, guys.

Is this like that chucktodd type of shit where we’re going to fault a candidate for being too prepared?

kingfish7418 Christopher Cadelago is a Bernie Bro. He’s a nobody.

“To a fault”... ask yourself if this headline would’ve been used for a male candidate?

I can’t believe this shit is still up.

Every once in a while, I need a reminder of why I don't follow Politico.

omfg

She lost me at “reparations”.

Jeff426 Yeah, that's a crime if I ever heard one. JFC!

🙄

Stop with your misogyny. Was Barack Obama too likable? Kampala is just fine the way she is. Your lens is skewed.

I hope they've left some space on the connect with batshitcrazy for DJT.

Delete this.

Oh. Is this what we're doing now? JFC.

Really weird euphemism for 'has a vagina'

'Sometimes to a fault'. Your headlines need improving. Here goes: 'Kamala is connecting with audiences by showing strength, compassion and relatability to issues people are passionate or concerned about'. A little lengthy for your promo, but more accurate.

Again: the media slams ALL democratic candidates. Remember Al Gore (invented internet, wore earth tones, too knowledgeable) John Kerry (windsurfer, flip flopper). This is not about sex or race, though that might be how it is expressed at the time, it is about Democrats.

Your ratio is delicious.

It seems like ratioed is what you want with this.

Donald Trump connects with his audiences too...by lying and chanting racist diatribes. I’ll take Kamala’s compassionate approach even if she doesn’t always get to the question asked.

Connecting... to a fault. Right. Not enough testosterone for connecting correctly, I take it.

Stop it enough w this

This is a very bad take. Do better.

This is inappropriate and ridiculous.

Even *if* the article is ok, the headline is crap. Not clicking.

‘Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.’ The Dude has a point.

Hahahahahah this is a classic “we don’t know what to write about but we have to keep up with a 24 hour news cycle and spit something out” kinda story

do better politico

She is too likeable now? And Hillary wasn’t likeable enough for you? Why don’t you just admit that you are misogynists to a fault?

The boy’s club doesn’t want a woman president. The misogyny in left wing media is disgusting. The “woke bros” are every bit as bad as the evangelical right wing men.

The 'National Enquirer' of political news never fails to disappoint.

Sometimes you are full of it, and I don't mean relevant journalism.

This was before trump was elected Donald Trump claimed he could 'stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody' and not 'lose any voters.'

Get out of here with this shit.

As I’m evaluating which dem I’m going to vote for I’ve been evaluating their experience. Silly me, I should be considering their personality, especially if they are a woman

The reporter of this story blocked me and probably was the one who reported me to twitter for posting this.

Now the woman is ‘too likeable’! Ladies-tell MSM that we will not be tolerating their sexist tripe this cycle! SenKamalaHarris SenWarren amyklobuchar

Not necessary.

So she's too likable now? What's the right amount of likable? Asking for a gender.

I dont know what that even means...🙄

Not art

What does this headline even mean? And no, I'm not gonna reward it with a click on the article. Because no...

Shame on you! Sexism strikes again!😡

I’ve gone right off you.

WTF?

Cut the shit Politico

WTF

That's some serious, hard hitting journalism there. Way to go Politico.

WTF does this even mean? GFY

Hey what kind of bullshit sexist headline is this? Hire more woman of color. Harris2020

EXCELLENT!!!

Bullshit

She’s an interesting candidate. I’m from California and I’ll be watching her. I don’t feel very good about California’s Justice system. It continues to be very racist and extremely cruel to the poor- so there’s that.

I'm here for the ratio, politico. Don't mind me.

Not reading this, FYI.

Connecting with audiences is a problem? Is that like being over prepared?

🤦🏻‍♀️

According to Politico, Harris connecting with audiences is a fault, but Elizabeth Warren’s wonky policy approach is cold and aloof. Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

Really? Is she too shrill and emotional too? Is her temperament not appropriate? Does she send twittter tantrums at two in the morning? The misogyny just drips from this dreck.

Wut. Lol.

What Kamala Harris is doing is being human. Here's your 'connecting with audiences - to a fault' right here:

Yeah Politico, not gonna let this one go. Are you really going to cover the candidates you don’t like with this kind of shallow trolling? Maybe this time you’ll consider focusing on policy and qualifications. Worth a try!

Miss me with this misogynistic crap.

Stop hating on women with misleading BS politico

One word 'Bernie' has already got the hearts and minds of the same voters. To warm up to someone else would be hypocritical..... Ncesi Sisi....

Holy shit, for real?

Be better.

I'm not going to read this crap to find out whatever that means.

Just stop... 🙄🙄🙄

And politico is the place to be educated. They just seem so interested in only bashing liberals, for some reason. I don't like Harris for president but these articles are completely worthless.

I'm thinking of a Kamala Harris/Mark Warner ticket for 2020.

Sorry Politico can't follow anymore. This article is low brow political bullshit

Harris2020!!!

POLITICO... you need to have women journalists review every article written by a male before it is published. They can edit for biased reporting. This a very important election, please take steps to prevent a repeat of what was done to Hillary by the media in 2016.

Is Politico hiring KKK members as writers?

Really? 🙄

Wtf?! You know this article wouldn’t exist for any of the male candidates! Enough with these shit articles that ooze misogyny. ENOUGH

'She should smile more, but not too much.'

Politico, you need to go to your room and think about what you're doing. HARD. You're allowed to come back when you've finally learned the lessons of 2016 and can tell me what you did wrong here.

'She smiles too much.' - Politico probably

She's so good she's bad. GFY Politico.

Is she too smart too? Maybe she's too thoughtful also? Could it be that she's to courteous? Could she be too articulate? Who the hell finds fault in someone for doing something really well.

WTF Politico?

Oh please. All politicians do these things. It’s early in the race and she’s getting her presidential candidate feet under her. Bugger off. And She’s not my number one pick. STOP picking at everything. Have you learned nothing from 2016, POLITICO? Shiiiiiitt.

Really? Seriously 🙄🙄?

This is pathetic.

BS

Compare Kamala with the drug addled child jailing sex abusing Russian asset, and get back to me. She’s likeable and connects with her constituency...the horror. When you guys have a real story, let me know. Stop trying to make democrats tear each other apart!

Really? Come on.

Poorly written misogynist crap.

‘i know we complain about women not being likable, but you really can’t blame us for attacking them for being too likable, right?’

What exactly do you want KamalaHarris to do for YOU? Be specific. We’ll wait...

Knock it off. Enough.

Knock off the celebrity gossip and horse race crap. Didn't you learn ANYTHING from 2016? Report on policy and character issues, that's what VOTERS need to hear. That's ALL we need to hear.

Oh stop

Politico this is an editorial not a work of unbiased journalism

Connecting...to a fault. There’s the misogynist dog whistle. Right on time.

FFS

wtf we really need some better reporters/commentators this election. Where’s the hit piece on Trump’s off the wall 2 hour mental ping pong match yesterday?

I see it’s not too late in the evening for more misogynistic bullshit. Does Harris have any redeeming traits? You know she’s an attorney and Senator, right? Bullshitico, you need to cut this out.

Was Kamala being too black or too womany or both? (Y'all goin learn today that Politico is full of isht.)

Everything everyone else said.

🙄

I mean, if only she prattled on and on for two hours in her speeches bragging about how she won her Senate seat a couple years ago by so many votes. Then she would be SUPER likable.

And what's you're problem with that, Politico?!?

Idiots

Completely empty story. Nothing here but a click bait headline. Nothing.

Did chucktodd write this headline?

So absolutely nothing will be right for a woman. I got it.

Now she’s too likeable?

So you're actually faulting her for being connected to her audience? That's the stupidest thing I've heard. Shame on you!

Women can’t win in press coverage. sexism

The problem is bullshit articles like this.

Gee I’ve heard that Corie Booker is a real sweet guy. Do him next. 🙄🙄🙄😡😡😡 STOP IT! BTW I do think Booker is a nice man.

NotHavingIt

You should fire this writer

What’s wrong with that ?

Nope, not reading it. I will not engage. The headline alone is absurd and a total turn off!

Just shut up.

Got any interest in Bernie Sanders' taxes, or is the important thing today that Kamala Harris is too charming?

When you get ratioed like this, it might be time to fire this writer. And the editor who let that headline through.

I’m so done with and their misogyny. Ridiculous crap.

So much so that she made me buy a T-shirt.

Please let us know what the exact appropriate level of likeableness is for women and how female candidates can reach it

This is such a ridiculous headline.

Jesus what a puff piece

Let us just get to the point. ' Kamala Harris is a woman'

Bull

It's almost like none of you read the article..

'She's Not Likeable Enough' 'Now She's Too Likeable' This tweet is getting ratio'd. That means it's a bad tweet.

Could you report more on her tone of voice? I understand that’s the most important factor in considering one of those woman folk

Kamala Harris is and has been utterly irrelevant.

Oh, isn’t this just more of what happened to Dems on the media in 2016. The level of stupidity suggests an underlying motive.

Oh FFS Politico. We get it, you don’t want a female president. JFC

Really? 2016 called and wants its bad coverage back. DoBetter

To a fault? Man, you all really have limited imaginations over there at Politico.

Misogynist

Byeeee, assholes.

What?

It’s too soon. Wait until the debates. You know who’s not detailed? Our President. I’d love to see her debate issues with Trump. She’ll be well prepared when the time comes.

We see what you're doing. It will not work this time.

How can that be a fault?

Oh dear ... is she smiling *too* much?

Kamala Harris is relating to those interested in her campaign interested too much. According to . OK.

B*tch.. ...b*tch......b*cht? WAKE UP🇺🇸 Now she's too likable? 🇺🇸 Discusts me!!!😡 Kamala2020

Shame on you.

Kamala2020

Thank you, next.

So it’s fine for Trump to yell and chant along with his followers, but Harris can’t have a real moment with people she meets?

Kamala Harris didn’t prosecute Steve Mnuchin because he was a big donor to Kamala Harris.

fuck this

And trump connects by lying and appealing to bigotry. You seem to prefer the latter

Nah. Don’t believe you.

Connecting with people is a good thing. Would this be an issue if she was a man. Come on Politico

Back to the drawing board dear “writer”- hope your bosses see the responses.

What is wrong with you? Seriously!

You just cant help yourselves can you

It’s pretty clear that the critique is about her avoidance of substantive answers to straightforward questions. Whether it is due to unpreparedness or pandering, keeping her options open, remains to be seen. It’s no virtue to attack an article you haven’t read.

If only she were a man, she'd automatically be juuust right! YetMoreSexism

Connecting TOO much? Wtf !!!

Politico is always garbage.

Your headline broadcasts your intent to find fault.

Sexist much ?

Stop it. Just stop it. Either write about her policies or sit down.

Hey what's with this kind of headline? Trying to create a Hillary 2.0 moment with KamalaHarris? Because a woman is brilliant, knows how to speak to people and listen you have to dog her with this kind of a tagline? Do better. KamalaHarris2020

Good ol' Politico always there for the misogyny.

Harris will say anything at all to get attention and be as radical as she can to appease the left loonies!!!

I like Kamala; but, she doesn't talk specifics and promises the world to people. That's the point of the article.

I don’t think so

Really, this is what you’re going to use as the click bait , smfh 🤦🏼‍♀️. Do better, WAY BETTER

wtf?!

Too likable. Gtfoh

that’s some bullshit right there. tighten up

This one's too mean. This one's too cold. This one's is too nice. Who are you, Goldilocks?

Good grief, to be a female candidate in this country. Have y’all learned nothing from the media coverage debacle of the 2016 election?!! Liberal media bias, my a$$! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Oh shut up.

To a fault? You ppl are so against women. Go write a story about bernie in Russia singing this land is my land or when he called asians yellow. Your blocked. Tired of the bullshit

Well she’s a woman so I guess you can find fault with connecting.

That’s a flaw? If it were a guy you’d be writing gushing puff pieces. MisogynyMedia

PersianKittenz Her emails?

It's always something.

How come the men aren’t called out on being too outgoing?

This just seems like a deliberately stupid headline. Congratulations.

Nasal voice lessons required for listening for more than a sound byte!

Same thing that’s always been wrong with Politico.

why did you accept this pitch

'She's too personable!' Lol

Who wrote this, Bernie?

PersianKittenz Seriously Politico?

Wtf is wrong with u politico

Sooo....to paraphrase....you find Harris an irreparably faulty candidate...and if she proves that she is not a faulty candidate....that, in and of itself, proves that she is a faulty candidate. Is that about it? Aren't you a silly pack of shits.

Competent women just can’t win....

SecretService UN CAStateParks WarnerBrosEnt amatevr mistake by Harris' avdiences?, maybe accordingtoStreet

So even her good points are faults. Got it.

This is

Sexist much?

Bad take. We get you want an old white male and are misogynistic

Seriously?!? You played us all once. It won't work again.

You deserve the ratio. This is garbage.

👀

I am getting so tired of these crappy headlines. Do better!

'Democrats arent completely insane... but is that a good thing?' 🤔

The female curse of excessive connectability is ushered into the American lexicon by Politico's Cadelago, who seems to thinks audiences prefer a *female* candidate to get into the deep policy weeds where he will then compare her to Boring Hillary. Too 'connect-ee', he says.

Aren’t most politicians under construction. Political growth and experience. What’s Trump? Started at zero. Still at zero. I was still learning new things at my job after 23 yrs. if you’re not still learning. You’re stagnant. GOP comes to mind in that. 🧐🧐🧐

Wow first was she likeable enough now she's too likeable? Really really lame

I'm here for the 10:1 ratio, and to tell Politico to shut up and sit down. We're not playing this misogynist shade casting game again.

Clinton was aloof but Harris is too personable? Yeah. Shut up.

Wow! Women are again held to a completely different standard. Either too relatable, not relatable enough while our Country is led by an incompetent, divisive illiterate, President Trump. Enough.

I'm just here for the ratio.

Knock it off!

News flash: Candidates being interviewed often fail to answer questions directly. Sometimes they lose the thread, sometimes the way the question is phrased is more specific than they care to commit to at that time. Doesnt mean that happens consistently. Dont read stuff in.

Unbelievable how this *has* to be put as a negative.

What? They like her? She connects with people? Dear GOD! What should we do?

EFF OFF POLITICO! It’s the 2nd day of women’s month and you’re criticizing a woman candidate for connecting with her audiences TOO much? I’m blocking you.

Imagine that? She is saying things that resonate and speaking intelligently and passionately. Good for her and shame on you with the misogyny

Next you're going to write about how unappealing it is that she's literate.

What man wrote this?

If you have nothing worthwhile to contribute, don't waste the bandwidth.

Tell your editors to take a nap and then try again

It's starting...

She sure is a corporate shill.

This is revised Soros pizza gate. Sad!

And Trump supporters feel he relates to his base / audience and we think “to a fault” and he is the fucking president of the United States! How is this a headline? Come on now - Kamala Harris is connecting with audiences and it’s a good thing 💪🏽

Politico is disconnecting from audiences -- sometimes to a fault.

Politico! Stop this garbage! *To a fault?* Really? Stop please. Now!

You always get the ratio you deserve. misogony101

What a stupid headline and a pretense for an article. Not click-bait for me.

More like Politico's big question mark

Hey, ccadelago? You have some issues with Kamala Harris. Every one of your articles scream: OMG!! This woman will beat Bernie. Is there something you'd like to tell us before you attempt to come across as an unbiased journalist or should you be filed under 'opinion writer'?

I can’t recall ANY male candidate being held to these standards. Such bullshit. I guess we should be grateful you’re not picking apart her wardrobe.

Dear Politico, Did Trump at any point, including the 2+ years into the job of President provide any specifics on anything he’s said or done? 20-point plans don’t win hearts and minds.

R u kidding me? Would u ever find fault w/a wh man who connected w/his audience?

“It feels like Obama again.” Good. He was excellent. Not that Trump should be the bar, but holding Harris or any other candidate to detailed answers on the mirid of questions they get is likely unrealistic. Most leaders learn a good deal as they go.

So........you're pissed at her...........for...............being GOOD at her job? Man you REALLY can't handle women with power at all, can you

Keep it up, politico. We see what you are doing. Are you on trump's, or one of his thug's payroll, too?

She circumvents and Yes, She doesnt answers the questions... JoeBiden, pls StepUp!.!

catlover1943 What the he ll kind of comment is this, Politico? Stop the misogyny! Unfollowed!

Are you serious with this sexist garbage?

?

And Kerry and Gore were too unlikeable , Dukakis too wonky and Bill Clinton too ... frisky ?

Politico trashing women in politics. Wake up!

Who paid you to write this?

Really to a fault? I think the media is trying hard to find something negative on Dem side to appear “fair” because GOP is such a disgrace and in news 29x a day with neg attention. PS you don’t have to write bs and make a neg just for appearances- I.e “emails”

“She should smile more.” ~Politico

Politico is going after Democratic women. Someone obviously has an agenda.

Really politico? With this you are becoming the problem. Be fair and think before you publish. Remember to treat ALL THE SAME!

Here we go again with this ‘to a default ‘ 💩! I this was a man that terminology would NEVER be used!! Or considered!

What is this bullshit?

oh gd. is the next article going to be shes not black enough?

Oh, brother. Just stop. Kamala2020

Are you insane?

I expect better of you, Politico. I refuse to even read beyond the headline. Do you want to try a second take?

So, now do this re all the men who are running...

Politico don't put your name on a story that's David Pecker worthy!! Won't wash this time around!

WTF politico Is this News Sexist....wants to do what you'll did to Hillary as Kamala

You need to stop pretending to be a journalist.

PoliCartoon Transcript:

Bernie is not connecting to minorities or women and you don’t call that a fault

2020 is going to be idiotic again

No , No, just STOP!

I don't believe to a fault

But her emails.

Same 💩 from MSM. NotHavingIt

What kind of stupid headline is that? I know🙋‍♀️ A sexist one.

Issues, assholes. Issues.

Would you please stop? Please? Garbage news. Tabloid journalism. Stop.

Remember all of the coverage about Bill Clinton, saying how he connected too much with audiences? Yeah, me neither.

Terrible headline.

Is she too likeable, or is she not likeable enough to white men, is she too outspoken, or not known enough, not progressive cuz she was a prosecutor, or does she want lawlessness & open borders? TALK ABOUT ISSUES & AGENDAS - NOT TRUMP'S TALKING POINTS!

Never good enough, right?

That’s a fault? Wow! She has my vote! Where can I buy my Kamala Harris presidential coins?

'...connecting with audiences -- sometimes to a fault.' What the fuck does that mean?

For sucks sake 🤦‍♂️

How can she connect too much? It's not like she's going around groping her audience!

Oh, no! Too much! Fer fuck's sake...

What fault?

Oh. Shut. Up. Go harass some man for being “too good” for a while. How do you not realize how BIASED you sound? Just zombie your way through the story why don’t you🙄

Yeah connecting their left hand with their right hand and locking the cuffs

What the actual fuck? Is she overqualified? Too agreeable as well? How is her fashion sense? Too pretty? Should she smile more? Can you just tell women how to women, preferably with a male authoring the piece?

Shame on you.

Alternate headline: she connects with voters we don’t understand and don’t value, and we’d rather criticize her than acknowledge that those voters matter

I jumped on to say what the actual fuck with this headline and also we can’t win but I see my sisters got this so I’m good. Do better, .

It's not a fault to connect with audiences.

Why don’t you practice journalism? And spare us the misogynistic double standards.

You had to go there. How is being too likable a problem? IQ45 is a moron whom people of reason can’t stand. Stop with the misogyny

It's gonna be a long election season people. [Gif: fuuuuuck alllllll of this.]

The woman candidate is toooo good

What is wrong with you ? Just stop the ridiculous already !

Oh FFS 😡🤬

Sometimes to a fault? Come on!! Is it the female part or the POC part

No, Politico. Kamala is not 'too connected with audiences.' You are just too disconnected with your female readers. Better fix this before you lose us all.

Am I supposed to be offended thats shes too likable?

Why can’t we just like her? I like her, she’s likeable, no-nonsense... Period!

What is this sexist nonsense? You'd rather see the world burn than report honestly on a woman candidate.

Really?! Gonna do Hillary 2.0 on her, and Amy and Warren. 🤬😡🤯

UGH! You guys SUCK! I don't even know how to start to tell you how much.

Wow. If there was a credible point to be made at all, you buried it under this ridiculous, misogynistic headline, and within a bunch of sexist B.S. Do better.

She should smile less. Now smile more... No, too much! This seems forced... Be more genuine! Not that genuine!

I'm sorry, have you ever listened to a Trump speech? You're going to imply Kamala isn't a 'real' politician

Speaking of having faults in one's connections to people, you're off to a pretty good start there.

“Now she’s TOO likeable!”

Translation. K Harris is cratering and Wall Street is just realizing it backed the wrong horse. She won’t even win CA. The premature endorsements are career killers, she is not getting anymore of those, and POC hate her.

Awww c'mon Politco. KamalaHarris is too nice and amyklobuchar is too mean? Obama was incredibly 'nice' and Trump is incredibly 'mean' yet I can't think of a single article leading with a headline like this on either. AskHerMore 🙏🇺🇸

FFS.... you say it like it's a bad thing. It's not!

ffs JUST STOP IT

Hillary too cold. Kamala too personable. Women should just give up running for POTUS! There!! Now you don't have to write this shit anymore, Politico. Tell the little ladies to stay home while you're at it.

Because women can’t do anything right, yeah.

lmao next thing you know, people will say she's over-prepared.

I don’t need this misogynistic crap on my newsfeed. WTH is wrong with you at Politico?!

I refuse to read this: 1) apparently you’ve learned nothing from 2016 2) written by a man 3) I don’t give a sh*t about candidates connecting, how their hair looks, whether they have a great recipe for chilli or what they wear!!! 4) Does it cover her qualifications or policies

Sounds like someone is scared by a knowledgeable, charismatic, female candidate.

Trump enhances the fears and stupidity of his audience daily

Oh so too much of a connection is a problem? What a load of shit and hack journalism...

O FFS politico.

What is the point of this headline? , you should ask yourself if you would write this headline about a male candidate. Women: we are damned if we do, damned if we don’t. Is she smiling too much too? jesustakethewheel genderedpolitics thingsyouneversayaboutamale

code_name_v I've checked the box by Harris's name since she ran for AG. She's smart, articulate, and knows the law. She's the Anti-Trump. And at this point, is it reasonable to expect anybody to have all of their policies fully defined? Particularly in a climate with so many uncertainties?

Is she also sometimes too prepared? Does she do her job too well? Does she smile too much or too little? Does she laugh right? How about her hair?

If only she had the detailed policy chops and specificity of the GOP nominee?

This seems gross. I refuse to click.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 No.

This is not a good take.

I expect better from you ! Shape up and help save this democracy. NotHavingIT!!!

Why couch it this way? Or maybe you are a Right leaning publication and just looking to be shitty and misogynistic? How can connecting be negative?

Defaulting to talking points is called a Stump Speech. Kinda like all the candidates— male and female— do. Delete your sexist garbage account

Most high-ranking members of the GOP accused half the country of being pro-murder, but yeah, go with this nonsense.

ccadelago Dear Christopher Cadelago, May I suggest a slightly revised title for your artice: Kamala Harris is connecting with audiences - but her emails!!! Sincerely, The sane American majority

Horrible headline

When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us.

This is the worst take

KamalaHarris is an Antisemitic

STOP IT. 🖕

PS: Thanks, though, for hiring Pissy Chrissy, as he was known in the Sacramento area; we're glad to be rid of him.

Look at how fast politics is aging her lol

What does this even mean?

Dishonest written all over that face

And that one time she put on her left shoe first and everyone knows you put on your right shoe first. You seem a little desperate Politico. Now do this same article on everyone else running.

What? Can you name one male that you've ever said that about in your history?

You embarrass yourselves... again. Vast numbers of reasonable, intelligent people have zero respect for Politico and I am among them. Regards, one fed-up veteran

jcmarbury To:👉 Politico QUOTE 'You're a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical, bigot.' UNQUOTE Talk about KamalaHarris Becoming President. Talk about her family, policies, bills she is co-sponsoring, etc. Example: And discuss....😏

Never gonna read an article with that stupid an intro. Just fyi , you're racing toward the ditch.

This is a stupid headline that would never be written about a man. Do better,

Seriously? !!! I have had enough of this shit! 'Fair, balanced, UNBIASED' That is what GENUINE, GOOD JOURNALISM is about. If this is beyond your capabilities now, then close up shop and move on. I'll look elsewhere for information.

For every sexist article that the media cranks out about a female candidate, I am donating $10 to their campaign. So please, keep these hypocritical pieces of 'work' coming.

We didn't get the Iceland-style justice we deserved where bankers go to PRISON for their role in financial fraud that wrecked the economy. BUT KamalaHarris almost SINGLEHANDEDLY forced a meaningful $25 billion settlement when settlement talks were heading toward a lowball deal.

Every time the media posts this kind of crap, we will ratio the shit out of it until they learn.

Dear Politco, do better

Shame on Politico for this article.

This is actually surprising, that Politico was objective about an establishment candidate. It was a fair article with valid points. Kamala supporters should push for her to answer more succinctly and detailed than she has been. Platitudes ain't flying in 2020.

Maybe if more candidates connected with audiences like Sen Harris, then we'd all be better off.

Oh, now she's 'too' likable?

Her other faults include not smiling enough, smiling too much, using vocal fry, not using vocal fry, uptalking, not uptalking, and not being likeable.

Stop it.

WTF with the headline

She must be too dark. Yes that’s it

trump must be good for business?

Not reading this. WTH does 'connecting...sometimes to a fault' even mean. Ridiculous! Gotta here with that shiggidy. Do better.

WTF? Just FYI when you write sexist, obnoxious titles I DONT CLICK

Why?🙄🙄

Ahhh, the new “likeable”

Dude, just stop.

First, they were too unlikable Now, they're too likable Pick a f(BLEEP)ing lane, already. Misogyny

Delete this.

It’s called word salad! By and large, the American people know the technique is a dodge and phony as a $3 bill! Bernie2020 NotMeUs JC4PM

Gee, it seems that ccadelago wants people who aren't able to connect with the public to be in a public sector position. Also wondering if an article like this would be written regarding male candidates? I place my bet on 'no'.

Of all the straw man arguments ...

Stop, just stop

There is no 'connecting to a fault'. If the people like her they will forgive the occasional gaff. To criticize her for not being perfect your problem, not hers.

Garbage Politico.

WTF does that mean?

Harris: Likable but lacked specifics Sanders: NOT likable but has lacked specifics for 30 years.

Really insightful take. She's smart and capable, but maybe TOO capable? We'll just have to see. Will voters respond to someone relatable AND qualified? Only time will tell. The real question continues to be, will an average white, middle-aged man be non-threatening enough?

Seriously? THAT'S the 'big question mark?' Here we have yet another example of a wholly stupid standard being set for women that we don't see set for people with penises. Why is that? At the very least, this headline is dumb and offensive. Maybe set the journalism bar higher.

'To a fault'? WTF does that even mean. Please take your '''splaining and 'analysis' and walk away..fast.

HERE WE GO AGAIN

When you forget who the current President is.

I’m not even a fan of Kamala Harris but shame on you for this article, .

Shut up.

Blocking Politico - cuz Stupid

code_name_v I blocked politico - pls don't send me their BS

WTF Politico

Oh for FFS Politico!!!!

I’m sorry where in this article did you list the issues that you described Kamala Harris was “vague” on...am I missing something here?

What does 'to a fault' mean? That she's a woman?

HorizontalHarris

P♂litic♂. There. Fixed it. Now, knock it off.

What the hell kind of headline is this?

“But in her early state debuts, Harris has at times compensated for her lack of precision and detailed policy prescriptions by lapsing into prepared remarks, turning to legislation she supports” why are your op-ed people being allowed to write pointless sexist waffling ?

Just stop, politico.

Politico being sexist. To a fault. Every. Single.Time.

She's my favorite Politico is not I'm assuming you still need folks to click onto your site. Tread lightly

This is unbelievable!!

Really ? Now the woman is TOO likeable?

You're giving TheOnion good competition.

Never saw that written about Bernie

alldisney2 When something is good, we need to learn to leave it alone, far too much critique …. for what purpose?

Politico and New York Post are going toe to toe today trying to out stupid each other.

Politico doing its best to reelect Trump?

Really a fault? MORE FEMALE BASHING.

Sorry; with a lead like that, the story isn't even worth reading.

WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?!

I wish reporters and news organizations would stick to reporting facts, and just let voters form their own opinions based upon what WE hear and see ourselves.

A semi-literate buffoon is the true and actual President of the United States and yet......this article was written.

What kind of bullshit is that sexist headline.

As I said earlier, it is a early hit piece. Things will sort out in Iowa and New Hampshire in February 2020. Right now it is all about funding raising and building an organization. Democrats, don't take the GOP bait and be united.

What is wrong with these reporters. Have they learned nothing

“I hate when politicians connect with the audience”, says the people who can’t find a single thing to dislike her for 😂

This is gross misogyny. dobetter

Media is still fundamentally a boys club

It amazes me how MSM never learns from their follies of the past.

Hardy har har har! Seriously dudes?

Stop this nonsense

She is clearly too likable

All of candidates are early in their campaigns. Give her a chance!

Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Thanks though.

It's true! I went to see her talk and we connected so much next thing I know I'm waking up in her hotel room! 😳

Like she connected with Willie? Or like her aide connected with the person he harassed? Geez. Learn boundaries Kamala.

I’m convinced Politico has it in for KH. She’s not my candidate (really) but Politico has churned out negative story after negative story about her. Why? Sexist? Racist? Being paid by Trump or Russia? I don’t see anything close to similar negative stories on other Ds.

Let's face it girls, the good ol' boys haven't a f**king clue had to write gender neutral issue oriented stuff when the subject is a woman. Did anybody every say this about Bill Clinton?

But her relatability!

Garbage.

Ohhhh, misogyny! How refreshing.

So now she's too likable? I didn't even click this bullshit and I will put $1,000 on the fact this was written by a man.

Beltway hacks masquerading as journalists: Hey baby why don’t you smile. Also beltway hacks masquerading as journalist: Hey why you always smiling. MakeUpYourMind

sexism

JFC, this is 2016 all over again. “She” is too good at making political alliances, too good at preparing for debates, too good at fundraising, and soon too good at winning primaries. IT MUST BE RIGGED!!!

'to a fault' is code for - yikes, she's making the scales fall off eyes. We see that women, and - ye gads- even women of color, make sense, sound intelligent, and actually know what they're talking about.

Because of this I’m unfollowing you. You Earned it. Too bad.

Wow, a candidate that is actually nice to the people at her rallies. What's next kissing babies? She is going to kick ass in the debates

Oh my God! Is this a joke? Qualified female candidates are either shrill and unlikeable or TOO LIKEABLE?!

And is doing its usual puke daffodils all over Kamala Harris routine. I've made a habit of criticizing Fox for its bias and lies, but the fact is both left and right are an embarrassment to journalism. Both sides hurting this country.

Keep stirring the pot-I knew there was a reason I quit following you jerks.

Damned if we do. Damned if we don’t. Sigh.

Translated. She’s still got the donor dollars, but voters don’t like what they’re seeing.

Yeah we don't want someone who can connect with the very people who will be the bosses. God forbid if WE THE PEOPLE could actually trust and believe in the person we chose to place in the oval office..The nonsense has started.. smdh

Not likeable, too likeable. Women candidates can't catch a break. SexistAmerica

I wish Trump connected with honesty to a fault. 🤔WeAreBetterThanThis

Shocked, shocked the writer is male.

platitudes and no substance gets them every time

Bother you clowns?

She “connected” with Willie and would be nowhere without that.

If you're going to knock her for not answering every question precisely, I take it you will do the same for Bernie, right? who is still downshifting to class every time someone asks him about race or gender.

🤣🤣🤣

Hillary Clinton - she's a bad candidate because she's not likeable enough. Kamala Harris - she's a bad candidate because she's too likeable.

This Looking-For-the-Just-Right-Bowl-of-Porridge-esque title of another Not-Quite-Right Lady Candidate may not be ccadelago's fault. Journalists rarely get to write their headline. But Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeze, , isn't the constant misogyny exhausting? It is for us gals!!!

This is an awful take. Do better.

'I would say my biggest flaw is that I care too much.'

Stop it. Just stop.

The bar is set about 8 miles higher for Harris than for Trump and any other Republican, for that matter. It’s the same for all of the female (Dem) candidates, no doubt.

Politico = 💩

DBChirpy to a fault? wtf?

hahaha, that's awesome. i needed a good laugh

Of course it’s to a fault in politico’s estimation. This is a meaningless headline. I will never click on articles like this. Media, do better. Do much better.

No Kamela the cop

What is wrong with you 🤔

Ratio. Have y'all learned nothing?

This Is a stupid headline

Ugh. We all deserve better than this take.

Delete this shit

If memory serves, isn’t this the same publication that launched the “is Warren too much like Hillary” bullshit? In any case, listen up, sexist hacks. We were polite in 2016 when you decimated female candidates by inventing flaws. That won’t happen again. So try real reporting.

DELETE THIS

what kind of headline is this?

She’s only likable to the Loony Leftists she’s been pandering to, the Electoral College voters she needs to win think of her as Hillary 2.0 with a tan...

How can connecting with people be a bad thing?

Gotta say, Politico, just doesn't seem like you understand the gravity of the moment we're in.

GASP!!! KamalaHarris is CONNECTING with the American people?! Jesus, Politico.

She’s too likeable?! 🙄🙄🙄

Stop. . . . . . . . . No, really. . . . . . Just stop. SexistBullshit

You are seeming like a gossip column not a fact reporting journalist.

Why do you hate female candidates?

I'm shocked, shocked to see that this was written by a man.

Don't know Anything about her, but there she is ..sure we'll know EVERYTHING bout her before the election.

How's that perfect woman candidate that you would totally vote for in Canada?

JFC.

P.S. 😍 your ratio.

, WTF are you doing?! 🙄 There’s a mentally-unbalanced criminal in the WH & you’re already making up reasons to attack female candidates? HRC was too cold, KH is too warm — female candidates are not bowls of porridge awaiting your Goldilocks assessment. Stop it.

So, 'Just not THIS WOMAN'. Got it!

This is total garbage. You need to go to your room and think about what you've done.

I am 100% percent sure, she will be on the Ticket. She has the goods, ethics, experience, understands the Law. Best knows how to ask the difficult questions. She will put Agen orange 🍊 face in his place!! He is toxic for our America

And Politico shows there true colors again and again. Hey got an idea don't be a tired sexist twit as a 'journalist' and maybe us woman will actually read your stuff. Until then fuke off and go back to school

What is wrong with you?

So, according to earlier reports, she wan't likable. Now she's too likable. Can we just assume that you'll be equally shallow and white male about all the female candidates and when it comes AOC, continue to gossip about her dresses while giving tacit lower back rubs to boys?

She's too likeable. She's not likable enough. She's pretty. She's too old. She doesn't dress well. ... The adjectives used to describe women are often subjective, and usually negative.

Kamala Harris for President 2020!

And here they go again. Hard pass on this kind of bullshit. I won’t read articles like this, but I’m gonna guess almost none of it is about her actual policy positions. Which means it’s just a chauvinistic opinion fluff peice.

Come on , all you have to do is admit you are afraid of strong women.

After one paragraph I’m here for the ratio 😒

Politico sequel 'Misogynistic Against Women Candidates - When Women Can't Do Anything Right'

Jesus H. Taft.

Dear gawd

are you kidding me with this headline?

I doubt that would ever say that a male candidate is connecting to audiences to a fault. WTF?

This headline does not make me want to read this article. So I won't... stop the negativity.

This is terrible. Just terrible, .

Oh noes... maybe try some actual political substance 'Politico.'

KamalaHarris is such a phony.

So this was stupid. Seriously, your misogyny is showing.

Really Politico are you kidding me? Delete your account.

Article complains she doesn't get into spec policy details. She shouldn't. At this stage details only hurt her. She should show she grasps issues and political realities. Policy det will be at best ignored, at worst read as promises and pres can't write or pass laws alone anyway

Up next: Kamal Harris. Easily smart enough to be President, but is that really a good thing?

You want Harris to 'exhibit the nimbleness and policy depth' that we see in ... who are you comparing her to !?!? I'd like to see a similar demand for 'nimbleness and policy depth' in Trump or Bernie!

Maybe Politicois the problem...yeah, I think so.

What a ridiculous headline.

“Sometimes to a fault?” BeBetter

I keep meaning to hit that 'unfollow' button. Thanks for the reminder.

THIS IS A TERRIBLE MISOGYNIST HEADLINE CUT IT OUT

ActDontReact What is this fresh bullshit? Are you literally making the case she's TOO likeable? I will not click on this clickbait headline that would NEVER be written about a male candidate.

Oh stop. Do you write this about male candidates? No. So stop it.

Hey morningmika the feminist. You going to call out this garbage from the press this go around or do you also hate all the women running in 2020.

Oh look a woman again held to some stupid standard.

ActDontReact This is ludicrous. Just stop it.

Give up with the nonsense headlines . You used to be better than this. Stop. Just stop.

Cool ratio, bros

What? How can you say this? Would you prefer that she be a cold calculating machine?

Ratio! Ratio! Ratio! Y’all deserve this ratio; Y’all suck.

This headline is amazingly dumb, POLITICOMag.

So now we see you

Hmmm posts how Bernie finally gets personal and then follows up with Kamala is too personal. Gee where’s the bias?! 🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

Wait, what? WTF is wrong with you? This is ridiculously bad journalism. Actually, it's an insult to journalism to call it that. It's a hack piece, and I wonder who the hell paid you to do this.

Did your universal vagina meter tell you that ...Or you just taking every little penial thing personal?

What in the fresh hell is this bulls**t?

tfw you have to publish but you have nothing to say

She will punch you in the mouth and you will like it.

Yeah, farrakhan connects with one too...

Can we say FAKE! yep, she is fake.

Hey, politico, you on the committee to re-elect the president? Or just on a misogyny kick?

HRC all over again.

Is this ratio'ed yet?

Girls are like that, according to . And that’s unbearably stupid.

We have a saying in my land, which I will share for your future reference. You have angered the women. Dude. NEVER anger the women.

Wow this article sucks

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Have they learned NOTHING

'HOW DARE SHE!'

Stop it. Sexism is not a good look for you.

Yeah, because understanding the people you represent is... bad

Seriously, ? Do better. You do have people there who can do better, right?

Lack of specifics is the problem with centrists running to the left for the primaries and then back to the right for the general. They really don't mean what they say in the primaries so it comes off inauthentic...because it is.

A presidential candidate who is vague about unwritten policies? I’ve never heard a single politician give details about a policy to a live audience.

Seriously, who wrote this tweet? What's his name? We need to know.

Do better. Be better. Didn’t you learn anything from the 2016 election

Politico is a RW PR machine.

What the actual F, ?

Hey you know what politico

Can you at least *try* not to have such deeply sexist coverage to the point of making us wonder if you aren't just a bunch of misogynists?

WTF does that even mean? What a ridiculous headline.

How about you cover issues not personalities. Try journalism

So are women supposed to be unlikable or too likeable in order to win elections? Because right now, media is trash when representing women candidates....

Hillary didn't connect, Kamala connects too much--we can never win the misogynist perception game. Thanks for your (non) helpful analysis.

The Goldilocks critique. 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️😒

They all lack specifics at this time. It's a process as they all vie for position and refine their policies. Writing an article such as this does nothing positive. Get yourself focused on real issues.

This is a good thing.

Really Kamala Harris is liked by majority of people and attracting audiences with her speeches covering almost all present burning issues facing by the Nation. Need not bother about negative comments as it is natural in politics

Politico is a sexist organization, always to a fault.

Shuuuuuuuuuuuut the hell up

She sucks and is a cop, but this is not the take

Please watch this instead of reading this misogynistic drivel :

Are you kidding me with this headline? Have you learned nothing? Absolutely pathetic.

These kind of bullshit pieces only ever seem to be written about female candidates.

Did Walker Bragman right this tripe?

Oh look, Politico gets ratio’d. This is exactly the kind of damning with feint praise that Dems must ignore for the next 20 months.

but does bernie connect I NEED TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just stop.

FFS! She’s too likeable now

Politico, please stop with this gendered crap.

GFYS politico!!!! Just because a candidate is connecting to people doesn't mean they are bad!!!

So Hillary was too prepared and now Kamala is too likeable. Quick! I need a man to tell me there are no double standards for women!

Delete this awful misogynistic headline immediately. Who approved this? What the $&! is going on over there? Stop expecting the impossible from women while always giving men the benefit of the doubt! This is offensive on so many levels! You are better than this! dontyoudare

You guys are really bad at this.

My car gets me to work way too fast.

Guys.

Yea she says what they want to hear

This is the most misogynistic headline I've seen since 2016. , be better than this.

Lamest headline ever. Not even interested in reading it now

This ratio tho

Does Trump connect “to a fault”?

Dear Politico; THIS ISN’T JOURNALISM this is lazy exploitation and sexism you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Kamala has zero point zero chance. No one likes this phony. HeelsUpHarris

And so it begins.

WTF, women can’t do anything right can they? Too much, not enough. Not smiling, smiling too much. Too funny, boring. Misogyny at its finest

ccadelago is an actual journalist?! How embarrassing for politico.

Tisk, tisk, you're doing it again. Will you ever learn? HistoryWillNotBeKind

Here we go again 😒

ccadelago is actual trash for writing this article

Well, your stupid “hot take” just earned her another donation. This shit is honestly exhausting, and quite frankly it feels borderline abusive. We’re being gaslit. Women need to work twice as hard as men, and yet we get criticized negatively for things men are praised for.

chriscadelago is trash

Divisive

to a fault? Do better Politico

Imagine journalists trying to hold Donald Trump to this same standard of professionalism & accuracy.

Zip it with this bullshit.

Christ you can't even call this damning with faint praise. If it's a female candidate every positive is actually a negative. Get some new material already.

What will you write when we’re all saying Madam President? 🤔

Here we go again. Can you just stop this shit?

It seems obvious the writer of this article doesn't understand that what Kamala Harris was doing was humanizing the immigrant mother. Learning she has a name humanizes her and hopefully makes people understand better that immigrants are people too.

And the privileged male media writes again.

Seriously, Politico?

delete this dumpster fire

What utter tripe.

The author of this sexist replay of 2016 is ccadelago if you’re interested in speaking to him directly.

I would like to see an article like this for grouchy Bernie

Over it. Misogyny sexism and racism. Over it all.

She's also too intelligent, too experienced, and too perfect for the Presidency.

Here we go...

VLanghiari34 It’s WomensHistoryMonth following BlackHistoryMonth Help fuel this grassroots campaign! No corporate PACs means this campaign will be ForThePeople and ByThePeople - Kamala2020 is where it’s at!!! Set up $5 on up to $27 recurring donation today!

Politico, you have a Christopher Cadelago problem. His takes are straight out of Heathers and have no business being part of your coverage.

Ratio...

Wait? What? You should delete your account.

Hmm.another day. So it's time for a fresh attack on a female candidate. Good old boys club still working overtime

You’re ridiculous

FFS Politico

To a fault? Seriously?

I’ll take Criticisms I’ll Never See Written About A Male Candidates for $1,000, Alex

I have a feeling every article about a female presidential candidate is going to begin with 'She is too - something.' by this guy.

Takes like this and you're gonna get blocked

Can’t believe y’all are starting this shit so early. Too likeable, not likeable enough, over prepared, not prepared enough.... I mean just say what you actually want to say, “Harris has too much vagina to be in the whitehouse and any man would be better than a ‘likeable’ woman”

So you’re saying she smiles too much now? 🤨 I really can’t with this bullshit again. 🙄 Seriously - is there anything a woman candidate can do that meets with approval? GTFOOHWTBS We’re not repeating 2016. 😒

Klobuchar is too mean and Harris is too nice? Seriously, this coverage of female DEM candidates is nauseating and will ply into Trump’s hands again.

Do better Politico.

Excessive happiness I guess.

Come ON quit vilifying women candidates!! You can do better! Report on their positions!!

It will be news when Politico practices journalism.

lol, ooh clever clickbait.

The article is ridiculous, but the thread below is well worth reading. Hopefully Ccadelago will go back into his hole and can hire writers who are not pigs.

Hillary Clinton all over again. Go to hell Politico.

Too likeable and smiles too much. How could anyone like that ever be elected president?

Politico crafting subtle misogyny into its headlines, sometimes to a fault.

Cool now write one about the white guy.

There’s a reason CharlesPPierce calls them Tiger Beat on the Potomac.

Oh, the horror! She's going to have to stop connecting with audiences before she loses the election!

For effs sake. Write about the issues. The proposed solutions. get it together!

🙄

Free healthcare for everyone!

Sorry but, reporters don't count. Keep shopping tho.

Hack writer.

The woman keeps making unforced errors WilliesSidePiece will gaffe herself out of contention.

Maybe try again.

As opposed to being too 'out-of-touch'? LMAO. Why does that sound so familiar

What a monumentally stupid headline. This is such a give away of your misogynistic attitudes especially in light of your lack of scrutiny of Sanders 'history' claims. So she connects with the audience TOO MUCH now. Unbelievable.....

This headline was not discussed anywhere in this article ccadelago. Pretty irresponsible. Do better.

This is reminiscent of Chuck Todd criticising Hillary for being 'over prepared'. It's just as ridiculous, too.

hey ccadelago is she smiling too much or not enough

What is this even? Indefensible politico. Just stop doing this BS.

Where's your article on Jim Jordan and Mark Meadows being all emotional at the Cohen hearing? They tried to outdo Lindsay Graham's performance at the Kavanaugh hearing, but I didn't see anything about them being unqualified for crying or uncontrolled anger or lying. journalism

Jesus, do better. This is sexist

Just stop! We have a criminal in the WH!

To a fault?..... To....a....fault. Nice. Well done.

Pitico, stop publishing these sexist stories. Stop writing nonsense. Stop being destructive. Or just stop existing. You are now irrelevant and I will no longer follow or read your articles. Bye.

You really need to fire some people.

WTF? Lmao!

Another hit job by MSM. These are the people who got Trump elected. They’re at it again.

Too likable. Oh dear.

Politico - Did you miss the memo from 2016 where it was agreed that this kind of sexist, unwarrantedly biased reporting was no longer acceptable?

No, Politico, No!

Congrats for coming up with the 2020 'she's too prepared!'

- Do No Harm. Sign on.

Politico gonna Politico.

It's like the leftists below are pouring gasoline over themselves and each other, and fighting for who gets to strike the matches. Delightful!

She may be...too qualified.

Can't win no matter what women do. 🤔

My first instinctual thought:'haha, jealous white guy'. Because it is exactly how my brother would react to a woman who is better qualified than him. He's looking for justification of his petty emotions. And then I checked the authorr, YUP, as predicted, male white name. 🙄

9kittens WTH ARE YOU DOING HERE? Misogyny Sexism 2016Replay CHECK YOURSELVES!

Stop

Retract this and explain why ccadelago and editors stepped so deep in it. And explain how it won’t happen again. Otherwise you just lost a ton of credibility. THIS stuff contributes to why “fake news” is a thing.

When will you have an article criticizing Sander’s constant stump speech repeat.

She sounds like a good politician!!! Winning is what it’s about!!! It’s better to be chill on the issues that are used to divide us. Obama said in 2008 that he felt Marriage was between a man and a woman. Let’s let the electorate decide! Build consensus, then lead!

Its a more thoughtful and nuanced article than the headline suggests. I think the outrage inducing clickbait-y headline will do more harm than good. Do better

Kamala Harris = District successes under her watch !

Because 45 was such a policy wonk & knew exactly what he was talking about

She’s awful

This is just bullshit journalism. Shame.

Sweet Fancy Jesus. You people need to go wait in the truck.

'She is too good at retail politics, and that's bad.' That is what the headline says. Astounding.

This has got to be one of the stupidest headlines I’ve ever seen. What will you follow up with? She’s too competent? Too honest? Too likeable? Smiles too much?

Next on Politico - Kamala is too good of a candidate to win!

Perhaps she should just say racist, sexist statements and then she’ll gain credibility. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Just stop!!!

What. The. Fuck.

Seriously?

Is Kamala Harris too good at her job? We’ll ask Chuck Todd...

WTF politico? ITS A GOOD THING SHE CONNECTS WITH AUDIENCES

Refuse to click

Has politico ever written a story about Bernie not having specifics and how that is a problem? I am really curious.- they might have.

Do you write useless garbage like this about make candidates? No, you don't. We've had enough of misogyny, no matter how 'unintended', from news outlets. Stop it.

it's almost like she's too good. i mean, since she IS a woman, we have to cut her down for her faults AND for her strengths. of course, if she was a white male, then it would be a different story, because that's how we roll in the 'greatest' country in the world.

Delete this article and issue an apology

Shit like this is why I don't follow you. This is the 'over-prepared' moment of 2019 so far. I suspect you'll give us another by next weekend.

Judge her on her policies! Not this like ability BS!

It obviously means she is too good to be president 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Why ? Why? We doin this shyt again? Already? We see you early.... we see you...

What a stupid thing to say!

Media trying to help divide and keep trump in the oval? Idiots!!!

Do better Politicos!

DoBetter 2016 redo Shameful Journalism

How have you not deleted this yet

Its a more thoughtful and nuanced article than the headline suggests. I think the outrage inducing clickbait-y headline will do more harm than good. Don't do this

Not so much w/her family. 🇯🇲

Wtf, Politico?

Looking at your long string of articles obsessing on the likeability of female candidates, I’d say it’s time for you to hire a few women onto your editorial staff.

Kamala how does it FEEL to be the Grand Daughter of a Slave Plantation ? Inquiring Minds of the DemonKKKat Party would like to know...

Do better......much better !

“She just connects to voters too much...” JFC

It’s okay, some of the writer’s best friends are women.

I am so damn tired of these ridiculous takes. Why don't we see these 'articles' for male candidates?

Whoever greenlit that title needs to go back to the drawing board. It should convey that y’all think she doesn’t have policy specifics not that she connects too well. 🙄🙄

WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN

I know, right, ? She’s too pretty! And too strong!! W-A-Y too smart for her own good. And, she connects with people too much... she’s not aloof enough... but sometimes she’s too aloof... and did you see what she was wearing!😱 AND, for goodness sake, STOP SMILING!🥴

Dude, ratio...

The current president is embracing murderous dictators and lying constantly about anything and everything.

Dang. Women just can’t win. Either Hillary is “too cold” and now apparently Kamala is too warm? Bullshit I tell you.

Really, Politico? How does one connect to others 'to a fault'?

Why you don't delete this, apologize, and review your editorial standards wrt to women in or seeking positions of power is a mystery to me. That you don't understand or care how deeply offensive this is is sad.

It’s a problem when voters like a candidate TOO MUCH. - Politico

I wish I could set this article on fire 🔥

Gotta admit, this is a novel application of bias!

FFS.

'candidate under construction' TWO YEARS. I don't know if I'm going to make it.

Comments:

Wow. Now she is too likeable?! Maybe yall could just tell us who you actually want us to elect, so we can dispense with the sexist/racist bs now.

Nahhhhhhhhhh Not even gonna click Do better than this

Before u look, was this article by a..

JFC.

Author ccadelago tends to focus on nasty little tidbits eg he wrote the story about her Jamaican father not liking SenKamalaHarris response - need to know more about HIM

What does this even mean? Ugh

SO NOW CONNECTING WITH VOTERS IS BAD POLITICO? **********************FUCK OFF*****************************

Today’s installment of Politico is full of shit!

Ya'll are losing credibility fast

eat shit,

To whomever it may concern;

Knew that it was going to be dude who wrote this...

'Deja Vu all over again.' Lawdy, get a grip.

Kamala who?

Politico face it you are never happy!

Oh, ffs. I don't even plan to click on such a stupid headline.

Have you learned nothing? Just stop.

2016 called and wants its headline back.

This is like Hillary was over prepared to be President! She connects with people too much! She is too likable!!

The media is so ridiculous. They put in the work(for the money) to help elect Trump bc Hillary didn't smile enough,was unlikable & fucking emails. I see they will work to re-elect a man who abuses them bc Kamala is too personable. Time to focus on the criminal in office ya think!

So she is........too likeable?

Its called campaigning

Oh give it a rest!

Give me a break!!!!

Media in 2016: Trump says Mexico will pay for wall. He's doing a great job connecting with voters. Media in 2019: Harris is engaging voters on a human level and gaining support. But where's the in-depth policy analysis?

Misogynistic dog whistle -- Ratio'd.

First a female candidate isn’t likeable enough, now another is too connected to her audience? Seriously? When you start covering male candidates the same way, I’ll click.

Nothavingit

That’s a sexist headline. Why not ask that about BernieRussianSanders? That would be fair? We ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ SenKamalaHarris. She connected with US 🇺🇸 from the start! She has ALL of the qualifications to BE POTUS!! ForThePeople LetsDoThis 👏🏾🙌🏾 Patriot!

Let's hear some of this utter crap about men candidates. Come on, you can do it.

🖕🏻Y’all need to get over yourselves.

All of the candidates have to be ready to answerthe tough questions.

I can't...and I won't...

“To a fault.” What trash.

She connects with me. I live in Detroit and I think she will be good for Michigan and be a great president.

Bullshit. People should not click on this.

Male Supremacy Media Putin Puppet Politico still pimp Bernie with your PenisPolitucsSucktRUMP tabloid 💩

News flash - press unable to comprehend public behavior I.

Just a hint. Seeing this insulting headline tweet ensured that I didn't bother to click to read it, which I assume was your goal. Women are not going to tolerate being treated like Hillary was in 2016. Prepare for more beatdowns like this if you don't do better.

OFFS stop it.

delete this

This is a ridiculous article.

What the hell is this headline. 'Even when she does well, we will find something wrong.'

Oh shut up,stop putting women under a microscope of criticism about their personality ability to speak how friendly smiles too much their voice their choice of food their work habits their dates ..... You did absolutely nothing like that with any male candidate. Misogyny2020

Too many people reading Politico, probably a terrible thing, Assholes.

kstreet111 What, you didn’t talk about her clothes and hair, too? Policy/positions are what we want- or lose your relevance in this process.

But Hillary wasn't likeable enough & tRump had phoenomenal answers & specific policy suggestions causing him to be eviscerated by a critical press & lose the election to cold-fish but safe HRC...OH, wait. Nevermind!! THAT NEVER HAPPENED. Let Dems campaign--it's all PR right now.

Can Politico not afford bias training?

No one said, Bernie, Beto or Obama got too close.

Oh man... you MUST do better than this, politico

Your bias is showing.

Jfc

Why 'to a fault'? Senator Harris listens to people, is that a fault? Come on now.

OMG .... how dare she be TOO popular! Something else a male candidate doesn't have to worry about.

Misogynistic writings. Okay then.

Politico, another right wing rag?

Ah yes, Trumplitico

And now I’m done with .

Stop. You ate replaying 2016. Have you learned nothing?

Shut up, Politico.

Now a woman is connecting too much Go home, Politico. You’re drunk.

what do you suggest? she should lie about her hand size? lie about her income? lie about her crowd size? maybe she should release a tape where she talks about grabbing someone's crotch?

Is this the new.....but her emails?

I used to value your political reportin.g. Welcome to the rank of tabloid now. Tone dead much? Epic fail.

BernieTaxReturns Hey Bernie Bots...TickTock where are the tax returns?

Write about what she plans to do as president. STOP WRITING THESE BULLSHIT ARTICLES

You are the worst.

Would you write this headline about Beto? Obama? Biden?

A sexist headline suitable for the nytimes

MSM doesn't want a better more informed electorate with a functioning moral compass. It's bad for ratings.

Just stop

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?! 😡😡😡😡😡😡

Wow. Too prepared?Disarming? This reporter doesn’t seems like he doesn’t like girls.

Female politicians are all just “too”

ffs

Oh my gosh! Call the police. Sen. Kamala Harris is a really good candidate and all too human. “She connects too well.” I can only pray that POLITICO’s 2020 coverage gets a lot better.

ForThePeople Kamala2020 !!!!! Exclamation points

Please make it stop.

Oh look, time to start attacking the women of color who are running.

Most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. She's TOO charismatic basically? Absolutely absurd.

I'm not even going to read this BULLSHIT👆🏽

Stop this shit right now, Politico. Seriously.

Aren’t you guys tired of being divisive misogynistic assholes? I’m blocking . Enough.

Who wrote this piece of crap?

Women’s History Month is off to a promising start. WomensHistoryMonth2019

This is the most garbage take that has ever happened. You should be ashamed. If you want to criticize her for not having enough policy substance in her speeches, that’s fair but this headline is terrible.

So Hillary isn’t likable so don’t vote for her. Fast forward to 2019 and Kamala is *too* likable. I hate you, Politico.

I’m a women so politico probably isn’t interested in my opinion, but politico is misogynistic garbage.

it's almost like everything a woman does on the campaign trail will be derided as 'inauthentic'

Not even opening this article. Stop dissing the women, for God's sake. Just stop. She's connecting with the audiences, and they love her. Will not read this kind of BS.

I'd say this is your daily reminder that is trash, but this isn't the first reminder I've seen today.

Pick a farking lane !

Let 2019 and 2020 be the year when the credibility of the sexist, misogynistic and racist news organizations in the country are reduced to the likes of that of National Enquirer. Every time you see an article like this, raise hell. Raise absolute hell.

She's too likable!!!!!!!!!! Fuuuck. This. Shit.

Politico writes dumb articles to a fault- no shame

I started reading this and then just stopped because it was a smh and sigh article-- she's too likable--OMG!

I’ll take “Sexist Headlines About Female Presidential Candidates” for $500, Alex

This is 💩 caca.

Y would any1 want a candidate they connect w/? LEDE:relatable candidate claiming 2B ‘4 the People’ really acts like 1 of them Oh the authenticity! u making this is a problem is UR FAULT, politico. not hers &ur sexism looks fat in this ratio =had 2 lose some credibility 2 fit

It's amazing how media twists things.

She’s a total fraud!

9kittens Really?

What a crappy-ass headline, Politico! I’m for Kamala

This is barely college journo 101...do better

WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

As if Hillary's policy specifics were a wildly popular media focus. 🤣😂🤣 And you don't get to complain about her spontaneous connections & also claim she 'lapsed into' prepared remarks. Rewrite this drek.

“Hillary was too cold and wonky. Kamala is too warm and touchy-feely. Must be nice to be a man who enjoys the presumption of being just right.” -JillFilipovic

If her audience is out-of-touch billionaires, yeah

Can anyone here tell me a.Why did you like this article and b. How far is your head up your own butt

Delete your account!

Thanks for ratfucking the dems again.

This links to an Onion article, right?

Seriously. What in all the f**k is the matter with you people

OMG, will the audiences get girl cooties from her 'connecting' so well?

Just say you don't want a woman, unless she's on her knees Sick to death of media picking apart female candidates. The reason they're dragging Kamala Harris, is because a female president would think of something besides her dick and money.

134 retweets and 494 likes after being up for 12 hours? You might want to rethink your strategy. Women are not the enemy because they decide to run and Bernie and Biden are not our saviors. Your misogyny is showing.

This has been the thing that is keeping me from being able to get excited about Kamala. All empty frames with no pictures in them.

“Unbiased” 😂😂😂😂😂

This would never be a topic if she were a man. Knock it the fuck off.

Stop already, will ya? As an Independent outsider, it pains me to see this crap all over again. UnitedWeStand against tyranny. Stick with the facts. What are her policies?

I will save everyone some time. OVERVIEW: Instead of just giving canned speeches - Ms Harris actually listens to people & treats them like humans who deserved to be heard - apparently that is bad 🤷🏼‍♀️

Demeaning powerful women of color is never correct.

KamalaHarris To be considered for leadership, Women need PROFICIENCY. To be considered for leadership, all men need is POTENTIAL. Potential is based in dreamy aspiration, proficiency based in fact and scrutinized. WomensHistoryMonth2019

WTF, Politico? What’s the perfect amount of likability for a woman to have? Is there actually a number? I refuse to give you my click. NoAdRevenueForYou

But what about her voice?

And... Here we go again... New election.. different woman... Same old shit from the media.

Odd that the media criticized Hillary for being a policy wonk who was not charismatic enough to win, and now they are reversing direction in their assessment of Kamala.

How dare she? So what exactly is the point where female candidates be on a likeability scale of one to ten? Are we going to be stuck in a loop of 2016 journalism stupidity?

Nope, she polls a distant third. She's worse than Hillary. You lied about Hillary'spopularity too, fake news.

Go Girl - you are wonderful!

Oh FFS... This is bad and you should feel bad.

Yes, you definitely want your leaders to be out-of-touch billionaires, who threaten your entire way of life. That is, without a doubt, the much better way to go.

No. Just no. WeAreNotHavingIt

I’m not even going to read this based on the headline. This is sexist and disgusting and we are not going to go back to 2016. Just stop.

So where's the article faulting Bernie Sanders for connecting with his potential voters? Beto? Booker? Biden? How pathetic, Politico.

Is specificity about immigration or any other politics necessary at this point? Isn’t it better for the candidate to recognize the issue & develop a solid policy rather than make a commitment to policy that is impossible to implements? Thought before speaking meaningless words.

Really? Really? This is your lede WTF is wrong with you?

At this point the political media and the press in general is only writing/reporting for the political media.

This headline is the 2019 version of why we have Trump.

Do better.

Ratio

Politico - where is this same article on Trump? He is the King of generalities.

Constituents who endorse and support the candidates on the left are themselves seeking to be enslaved by relinquishing their rights and giving the State jurisdiction over their affairs and lives. Even to the extent of authority to terminate their offspring's

I'm no Kamala stan but fuck right off with this

Ugh.

Are you actually asking 'Is Kamala Harris too nice?

You really don’t like women running for office. When did connecting with an audience became a bad thing. Just admit it you’re afraid of a strong woman, who isn’t afraid to speak her mind and connects with their audience KamalaHarris2020

When a male candidate connects with his audience he’s authentic, sincere, charismatic, a good retail politician, he can speak to them as one of them. Lose your double standard. The misogyny is repugnant. It’s hypocrisy is a foul stench.

DO BETTER ALREADY JFC

The author of this piece has a weird hostile fetish about Kamala.

Not likeable enough.... Not likeable enough... Not likeable enough ... whoops! Too likeable!

C'mon, Politico! PLEASE stick to the issues! What are Senator KamalaHarris's policies? How does she plan to pass the bills and implement the policy objectives? Report facts. Stop editorializing everything.

Kooky Dumocrat planner.

Too connected, right....

What a tool

You missed that Trump runs an organized crime family but yes let's talk about Kamalas too friendly personality.

Harris supports slavery. She endorses Socialism and the very essence of Socialism is enslaving a population by the State for the benefit of the leaders. Harris, Warren, Booker and all on the left who endorse Socialism by adopting GND, Medicare of All, etc. are promoting slavery

WTH kind of garbage is this?

I didn’t even have to look at the byline to know a guy wrote this hit piece.

Right 🙄

Give us an effing break.

I look & listen to her & all I can see is her sleeping her way to the top. She had a sugar daddy. Wow, I thought Democrats were all women equality & they still use the bedroom for success. Unbelievable.

Who is writing this shit? Steven Bannon?!

Enough of this kind of 'commentary'. I refuse to read this malarkey, I refuse to share it, highlight it or give it oxygen. Stop it, just stop!!

So Hillary was unlikeable, Amy is a mean girl boss, and Kamala is too personable.... stop doing this to women. Stop.

This belongs in the 🗑.

No no no no! Have you learned nothing from 2016?!?

STOP 🛑 this BS! 🤬🙄

1st paragraph... All politicians do that! I’m sure Trump would have a very well-prepared “detailed policy position” to lean on. 🙄😤🤮 Looking forward to the next article criticizing her for being over-prepared. Give me a huge beak asshole! This is so bad & embarrassing! Ugh!

Politico: Harris is way too Presidential. She risks not being able to connect with crucial trump cultists who want a mentally ill goon in the White House.

Lousy headline .

PATHETICO!

Now can we stop putting roadblocks in the way of intelligent, capable, gregarious female candidates for president? Are they 'Likeable'? 'Relatable?' 'Strong enough?' All articles about women aspiring to higher office seem surprised that we can actually relate to everyone.

I'm looking for real content on candidates. Likability stories, dining etiquette pieces, fashion police, and women emoting stories need not apply. NotHavinIt

Why why why? I may have stop following if these hit pieces continue. KamalaHarris is connecting and that is a GOOD thing.

So now a woman is too warm to be POTUS? Stop with this.

feistsheindlin1 I like Kamala Harris. She's a tiger.

Let the Dem bashing begin MSM.

Nope! Not reading. Go away. This is egregious? We have an orange monster and enablers propping him up. Stop with this nonsense!

I can already tell this is sexist garbage that I am not going to dignify with a click.

Politico who?

This is shameful. Learn to recognize this nitpicking of female candidates over insignificant & often untrue ‘nicety’ nonsense as the massive gender bias that it is & stop it before you put it out. You should have had a training program on this for all staff after 2016!

What a joke this article is!!!

Politico still working hard for...who, exactly? More bullshit articles just like the 2016 election. Thank you for reaffirming why I stopped reading your articles.

Wtf. You learned nothing

FFS people could you at least dig into her record as a prosecutor or check whether her climate policy will move the needle on preventing disaster rather than whatever sexist BS this is?

It’s a “problem” to connect with audiences (if you’re female). Can always count on Politico for clickbait bad takes. Not gonna bite.

Let me guess...this author is a Bernie supporter?

Shame on you. Unfollow.

Trump is connecting with audiences, sometimes to a fault.

That’s not really what the article is about. The headline is misleading.

clickbait garbage

Trump is connecting with audiences, sometimes to a fault.

WOW , a woman is too nice. Another woman was too mean. The other woman ...blah blah blah .

Dear media outlet, We aren't going to click on articles like this. Policy & platform. That is what we will read. Stop this. NotHavingIt

This is a garbage take.

Is her audience full of metheads and special ED students?

Trump is connecting with audiences, sometimes to a fault.

What's next? 'Too presidential?'

Trmpbis connecting with audiences, sometimes to a fault.

You know, CharlesPPierce is correct to call you folks 'tiger beat on the Potomac'.

Now you’re just doing it on purpose

Soooo you’d have a more favorable headline if she weren’t connecting? Ya I thought not.

Seriously ? So you're trudging down the same path to being another mediocre MSM news jockey like the rest - sometimes ToAFault as well. unsurprising

Did I wake up in 2016? And you're really questioning Sen. Harris' bona fides? Thank you next. And if you want to see connecting to a fault, Exhibit A is below.

Hahahahahahhaa

Oh shut up.

Yes she’d be so much more electable if she yelled at people more.

Trump 2020

Wait, so connecting with one's audience is a bad thing?

So FIRST the Trump supporting 'Politico' says women candidates aren't likable enough, and now it attacks Kamala Harris for being TOO likable. We get it , you are going to make sure to attack women candidates. Resist

Not nice enough. Too nice. Not direct. Too direct. Not tough. Too tough. Do better. This isn’t 2016 and the bullshit sexist and misogynistic HRC attack game. We see you all clearly now.

Wtf?

God damn it! This is double standard bullshit reporting on female candidates. Is this how you would report on male candidates?

KamalaHarris you're an extremely bright woman, I hope you read this article and take it to heart, learn from it, & spend some time working on your policies...charisma will take you far, to clinch the deal just add this missing piece to be the WHOLE PACKAGE I KNOW you can be

Her success is actually FAILURE! Go it.

Does want to be taken seriously or are they content being political TMZ

🙄

Too bad it didn’t work for JFK or Reagan. What’s a girl to do?

This is exactly what happened in 2016 to Hillary. Do better politico or we are doomed.

Waiting for someone to call her 'overprepared'.

Your second paragraph has a typo. The rest of this piece is crap too.

Her for the ratio...because this is a BS take.

You are playing like it is '16 again! Ugh😡👎

Misogyny, thy name is politico. Stop.

Try not to be so stupid in your coverage.

F.U. Politico.

Seek help.

Harris’ capacity to convey warmth and relate deeply with her audiences. Is that a bad thing I'm confused?

Nothing to worry about, you won’t go go far!

The headline is so stupid, I won't bother reading this ridiculous article.

She’s a narc

Unfollowing . Coverage is misogynistic bullshit and we won’t stand for it.

Learned nothing from 2016. Got it

Christ.

Way to go politico. Way to twist everything into a negative. Way to shit in his many bowls of Wheaties as you possibly can. RightWingShadowRag

Code for “she’s too emotional' right? Take a hike.

She's too good at this? That's what you're saying? FFS.

Recognize your own bias. Analyze it. It will make you a better writer, commentator, person. Every time.

Why are these stories/bylines always written by men?

What kind of b.s. headline is this?

Click bait trolling.

Hi, do you recognize you are dripping misogyny all over the place? We are NotHavingIt.

Kee-rist.

HIRE MORE WOMEN PROMOTE MORE WOMEN

U make it sound as if that's a bad thing. Who's writing these *headlines*? dobetter

What does this even mean?

...and this is the best that the media..err, spineless stenographers can do? Pathetic hacks.

The hell does this crap mean?

Oh, right. I get it. She's a woman, so if she doesn't connect, she's cold and unlikable. If she does connect, it's too much. Got it. You learned nothing in 2016 about irresponsible journalism.

Are you kidding me? Can you get past criticizing women candidates over this kind of nonsense, Politico? How about we discuss issues and policy stances instead?

What does this even mean?

So Hillary was not likeable enough but Kamala is too likeable WTAF. There's way too much 'Bro' mentality in media, and I'm not talking about Bernie in this instance. I mean fragile masculinity

Hey, politico, be better.

Im voting for Kamala.

Oh Politico- blah blah blah

Hey, , I thought you went bankrupt?

What. The. Actual. Fuck?

The “fault” is your byline. Did she also wear the wrong eye shadow? 🙄GTFOH Do better. We’re not going to stand for less.

Rewrite your headline—she’s great at connecting. Now for specifics on policy.

'Reporting' like this is why the White House is now occupied by the OrangeIdiot.

Be better than this: Senator Harris deserves better—and so do we.

This politician is doing an Amazing job. Wait—two X chromosomes? Too good. Over-prepared. Likeability problem.

Ooh this ratio is 🔥. Like dumpster fire though, do better.

Politico news room

This article is absurd.

Wondering how long it would take 2 hold the smart, mature well-prepared candidate 2 impossibly high standards. Well done, !! U didn’t let me down! She’s “lapsing into prepared remarks”? With stump speeches? Horrors! Guess she *lleans* on anecdotes” because she’s weak?.

Your misogyny is not gonna work this time!!!

Another ridiculous take aimed at the candidate that is clearly a frontrunner. Have you ever called out a male candidate for “connecting to a fault ? Just stop. So over clickbait puff pieces.

The very reason I stopped following politico and The Hill

Here we go again. Let’s dance like it’s 1699.

Aaand politico is cancelled.

Connecting is now somehow a bad thing? Or is it only bad if it's a woman? Take a long hiatus Politico -- until 2021 at least.

Ah político, it’s the vagina that’s throwing you off isn’t it? DO👏BETTER

I’m just here for the ratio!Yeah politico and now she smiles too much

Fake stories.. from fake reporters

This is an idiotic take and you know it. Déjà vu 2016

Stop it!! Just stop it!! Because of you , real journalists are getting killed!! Shame on you!

People like to watch clown acts. And she is the biggest.

Delete this nonsense.

Oh ffs! 🤮

ccadelago Far be it from me to assume the voice of all reasonable humans, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and ask you and your crap media outlet to please fuck right off.

'To a fault'? Seriously? Hillary wasn't likable enough, Kamala is too likable. Just stop.

You sexist schtick is getting old.

You're baitin' I ain't clickin'. 😎

'I forced a bot to read 1000 articles on and then generate it's own political hit piece. Here is the first page.' - not KeatonPatti, but it could be. All that's missing is the unlimited stick and secret soup.

Nay bad article.

Just here for the ratio. Seriously, Politico

This tweet is dumb

Be like a person, but not too much because you might seem like a person. What the actual fuck, ? Did KeatonPatti's bot write this for you?

You HAVE got to be kidding me?

Hey Christopher Cadelago change your headline! But then again your spelling to the FakeNewsMedia masses!

Up next week: 'Kamala Harris can't connect with the right audiences'

I hope you figure out very quickly how you can do much better than this, . Stop the sexist and racial tropes.

This is connecting with world.. Trump 2020

Has she worn too many pantsuits yet?

So people like her too much. Got it. What a delight this election is going to be.

What? Are you going to cover 2018 candidates like 2016 candidate HRC? I’m really just stunned by this headline. What News value is there?

Politico thinks Kamala should smile more. No, not like that! That’s too much!

This is what sexism in 2019 looks like

Congratulations Politico for having the dumbest headline of all time.

Y'all really didn't learn anything from 2016? Damn

Huh? What does this even mean?

“1 and 1, no outs, Harris swings and over-connects with the baseball, hitting it way too far to even be ruled a homerun anymore. Harris is out on an automatic triple-play.”

Not clicking this sexist BS

Harris2020

sfpelosi

Seriously

Oh come on! Do you put put male politicians under this microscope? Knock it off.She has more character and guts in her little finger than this draft dodging criminal POTUS we have now.Damn right she is connecting.

Shame on you. Isn't there a piece you can write about some Republicans looking for Cohens boxes?

Well. This author has quite the hate boner for Kamala.

Most of the male Democratic candidates will at least make it to the primaries without any clickbait coverage like this. 🤦‍♀️

Oh dear, she’s not yet perfect.

Here we fucking go.

RatioRoundup AryaResists

Not again with this shit!

'She's great and that's the problem' -American media

WTF with this headline?!? Candidate does good thing, but she’s still bad!

The article immediately cuts a situation where she emotionally connects but then never answers the posed question with and details or policies.

What? Who are the jokers behind these articles claiming to have so much insight into everything. They’re no more than political hacks with as much insight as a fool with a crystal ball

'Is she connecting too well with people'...😒 what the hell kind of position is this?

Fu

Kamala will lose, just like Hillary, because she is ARROGANT.

Yeah her lack of policy wonkiness is just no match for Trump

Hey Politic, we are not doing this again. As of today, like a bot, you are unfollowed.

Oh my God, the level of scrutiny she is under. Enough!

Lessons not learned in 2016 already being repeated by journalists now. Sexist much?

So is she too prepared or not prepared enough? You sound confused, kind of unprepared.

You are better than this... why would you do this?

... the pot smoker...?

OMFG. 🛑

Guys, just say you hate women. It'd be far more honest than this shit where you go 'oh she needs to connect to people more except not too much'.

Dear hire more women reporters, and not the ones who bow down to your misogyny.

Got it. Harris too likable. Warren not likable enough. You’re doing it wrong, .

You can fight hate-click bait like this by not clicking through to the article and unfollowing the twitter account. They do this because it works. Angry people are engaged.

SERIOUSLY!!!!! When has a male candidate EVER been criticized for connecting to a FAULT Check your patriarchal bias please.

The headline is terrible. The article itself tries to drum up controversy by saying Harris hasn't achieved perfect balance atop a manufactured dichotomy of wonkiness and empathy. All this while Trump is incapable of empathy and lacks the cognitive ability to even consider policy.

Don’t start this shit again. We are not doing 2016 v2.0.

.... ... .. . Stop it.

But is she likable? Is her voice shrill? Do you enjoy her laugh?

Attention: B52Malmet emrazz krassenstein mmpadellan Jersey_Craig Politico cannot be considered a trusted source of information. I (& a few dozen chapters of my sorority around the country) am ghosting ANY NEWS SOURCE that “reports” this bullshit. EarnMyAttention

What? Seriously? You are criticizing her for connecting too much? Isn’t this how Trump won, connecting too much with his deplorable base? At least she is not connecting with the hatred train. Please just report facts, not opinion.

Over prepared?

Delete your account.

If Trump were your grandfather with dementia you would put him in a nursing home instead you give him better coverage then a woman because of your misogyny.

This is the dumbest headline I think I’ve ever seen, and that is saying something!

Politico is connecting with odd dunces--sometimes to a fault.

jfc

Stop with the misogynistic BS.

Politico is trying to do journalism - sometimes to a fault...

ICYMI

ICYMI

Yes! Too pretty Too smart Too Passionate Too Strong Don’t like her voice Don’t like her shoes Her smile is too perfect She cares about people too much Screw u

Oh stop it! So now she's too likable

Would you write an article like that about a man? Why not give SenSanders the treatment you gave HillaryClinton We will not stand for your misogyny!

Whoever wrote this should be cursed with lunch time diarrhea.

Next week: Kamala Harris; Why does she smile so much ?

Still waiting for content.

Yeah, being relatable is such a curse. Better headline, will Harris have policy to advance Americans? Politico, do better!

This seems like something Chris cilizza would write

Cause I gotta go to work and don't have the time to get into how wrong this is, let me just say: fuck y'all.

Politico strikes again...with more garbage takes.

So yeah I guess Politico has fully embraced the “Incendiary Clickbait Headlines to Increase Our Traffic” model. Real brave, scuzzballs.

Here we go again. Amy is mean to her staff, Kamala is too nice. Let’s talk trash about competent women so a mediocre white man can win

Good grief. She's female so you HAVE to take something she does well and turn it into a negative. Meanwhile, our president is surrounded by criminals.

Another “bro” article, this one bashing Harris for being too warm. Tomorrow he’ll write that Klobuchar is a “bitch to work for” and Warren has a “dna” problem. Fabricated controversy & undermining anyone who reminds them of mom. What’s wrong with these guys DoubleStandards

FFS.

She needs to connect a Brain with that mouth. Another waco

Wow, if you’re going to criticize, can you focus on her positions please? This is one dumb take

Absolutely horrifying to connect with those you hope to represent! Cut the crap. We will not tolerate a repeat of irresponsible and insipid political coverage and baseless attempts at fault finding.

Shut up. She would be a great president as any of the dems would Just shut up

Trump connects to audiences “to a fault.” Bad headline

Are you serious right now? Don't you think we can see what you're doing? We will NOT let you Hillaryize our women candidates. We are paying the price for your malfeasance every single minute. It's over.

After hate-filled diatribe, propaganda yesterday from Trump, Politico decides to pull a 2016, ignore the real story—Trumpism. Media is going to pull a 2016 in 2020. Look for them to accept another “locker room talk” type excuse from Trump & go back to a 2020 version of emails.

“Harris has at times compensated for her lack detailed policy prescriptions by lapsing into prepared remarks, turning to legislation she supports...& leaning on anecdotes to connect w/ audiences.” R u kidding me? This is every candidate ever. This is an embarrassment, .

“Hillary Clinton was at times, you could argue, even overprepared...' - MSNBC resident fuckwad chucktodd

Oh really?Trying to get somebody else in? For Godsake back off.

'She's connecting with audiences — sometimes to a fault.' SERIOUSLY? , do better. You too nytimes CNNPolitics washingtonpost MSNBC

Precision in policy doesn’t matter if folks feel you ... they just trust you’ll do it right in the end.

What does that mean?

Furthermore, Politico, you just lost your creds for astute political reporting with the b.s. about Kamala Harris 'connecting... to a fault' (eye roll!!!) revealing your disgusting misogyny. nomorePolitico Politicomisogyny

What's next? A penetrating investigative report on Cootie infestations in female political candidates?

Jesus 🙄

You seem to have a problem with women candidates Politico. Not once did you do this in 2016 to the male GOP candidates or dig to uncover Trump's background material whichwascright there as we all know now. Yet here we are in 2019.

Anger inspiring headliner to get 'the click'. Nope

Wtf does this headline even mean?! “to a fault”?!? Just here to help your ratio

Hillary is competent to a fault. Warren is earnest to a fault. Pelosi is experienced to a fault. Klobuchar is effective to a fault. Gillibrand is consistent to a fault. Harris is like-able to a fault. AOC is authentic to a fault. Woman BLAH BLAH BLAH FAULT!

Trying to lead the “tear down women candidates with any bullshit we can find” train?

Wow what garbage you have become.

ccadelago - You should read this.

The ideal candidate - to a fault

She is a empty suit

Seriously? Y'all haven't learned a damned thing, have you? Why the hell do you hate America so much that you would do this shit again? Let it go? Stop the misogyny. Stick to the facts. Stick to the policy platforms.

So over this crap!!! With women, it's damned if we are toooo empathetic and damned if we're toooo cold and stand- offiish. It's all coded misogynistic b. s. We want to hear about her PLATFORM, the ISSUES!! End the Patriarchal bias now!! womanpotus2020

This is a writer in search of something to criticize. Hillary Clinton was criticized for not being able to connect emotionally with audiences. Now Harris is being criticized for over-connecting with audiences.

Your 'paper' 'publishes' hot garbage.

The election is well over 1 1/2 yrs away. In the meantime we have primaries to clarify all these plans. Why is this not being written about Sanders instead, who went all the way thru the last election with no specifics, didn't have any for 30 yrs in Congress, and still has none?

When Trump gets pantsed in debate you can wrout the emporer's new clothes. BeBest

Maybe do an article on Kamala’s clothing choices and how that means she’s unelectable?

“She’s too female”. There. Fixed it for you Politico. Ffs.

Yeah she’s too connected to people. What a bad person.

Smells like cover for your preferred candidate not being able to connect with audiences

🙄 Come on Politico.. seriously !?! Try harder.

Amy's too mean, Kamala's too nice, Kirsten is too ambitious EW is shrill.....

No. We’re NOT doing this shit again. Stop. NOW.

Suuuuuuuure she is

Omg. Enough.

DID YOU LEARN NOTHING FROM 2016‽

'Overprepared 2.0' No, Politico. No.

Seriously? please just don’t.

Holy cow is this post upsetting. You’re actually equating likability with lack of knowledge. And you say Harris isn’t ready for a policy debate? She’s a prosecutor. Get out of here with this.

Gee, where have we seen this movie before? She isn't likeable and her supporters aren't enthusiastic 2020.

Is this satire?

Kamala Harris has literally been a Senator for two years. She's been running for less than two months. She's supposed to have it together & have full answers right now? Why's it ok folk folk like Bernie having nothing but platitudes after 30+ years in DC & this being his 2nd run.

Really? This is your headline?

Media propaganda 🤔

She 'lacks specifics' on policy when speaking publicly. Oh no, like literally every politician ever whose run for president. Are we still pretending this matters?

So... *too* likable is now a problem?

Her prostitute base loves her.

Did it matter for this president all he did was change his mind and lie so your critique is confusing to me on the one hand we have this high standard on the other hand crazy person

What does connecting with her audience to a fault even mean? You mean she’s appealing to non-POV with her message?

We are living under the most corrupt administration in US history. The so-called President went on a 2 hr crazy rant yesterday and you write this kind of inane nonsense. This is not journalism Shame

This headline doesn’t fly in 2019. Do better.

OMFG sexist much?

The only question mark here concerns ’s choice to employ a writer unable to understand Harris’s choice to name one immigrant as a way to humanize all immigrants. It was a subtle tactic to combat the degrading dehumanization of immigrants in recent years.

Are you asking her to be God?

Proving one more time, the media always fault women for everything...who knew connecting with voters was bad? Is this the same as over-prepared crap? I refuse to read an article this stupid.

And this is what Politico wants to be. A tabloid. A bullsht machine. Well it worked.

WHEW! Well, at least she’s not “overprepared”. 🙄 HERE. WE. GO. AGAIN.

Not falling for your bullshit this time around, .

This is sexist garbage. Are you really going to make too likable a thing for female candidates in the 2020Elections? You could really use a set of Frank Underwood’s cufflinks.

Notice how many sentences begin with “But...” The parsing of positive traits as negatives is a particularly insidious syndrome when men critique women pols.

Congratulations, your hot take just inspired me to donate to her again.

Here we go again....

WTF is wrong with you, Politico? You are taking the likability thing that was used to destroy Hillary, turning it around, and trying to use it to destroy another great Democratic woman who’s running for president. STOP IT.

Stop it. We need female energy, go punk male candidates.

You HAVE to be kidding us. FFS stop it. Right now.

I don’t think Politico writer Christopher Cadelago likes Kamela Harris

She’s too prepared! I’ve heard this somewhere before...

You're doing 2016 all over again.

So KamalaHarris is doing what every politician has done since the beginning of time, but you decided to call her out on it exclusively!! Stop doing shit like this!

I'm so sick of reading b.s. like this. Enough with this sexist crap!

ccadelago, WTF is wrong with you?

What the fuck is this.

When Bill Clinton did this, he was hailed as a genius.

Misogyny is real....now SHE's too perfect?

This is some Chuck Todd 'Hillary was prepared, but was she too prepared?' bullsh*t.

Well, this is stupid

You’ve learned nothing.

Here we go 🙄

Oh. Is she over-prepared, Chuck?

They’ve already formed their horserace to be between 2 old white men. Bernie/trump and Biden/trump. It’s gross. The media is going to elect trump again if we let them. ResistCorporateMediaElectoralHorseracePropaganda

This is one major hot take. Enjoy the ratio.

Kamala Harris is a panderer, a chameleon, who can and will say whatever any particular audience wants. In other words-she is a complete phony. We already had 8 years with a colossal phony in our White House with Obama. We don’t need or want another one.

Another gem in the series of “dudes don’t get articles like this”

Delete your account

Honest question: the premise of the article is that she doesn't answer questions directly but speaks in generalities. Is that a sexist criticism or is my understanding of the premise wrong?

She is not connecting to anyone with an actual brain ... because they can see through her shite.

And I thought it would be more difficult this time now that you all have to hate on 4 strong women running instead of your laser forcus on one. Seems you have more than enough misogynistic BS to go around.

JFC.

Delete your entire existence.

What? In related news: WTF⁉️

🤮

“Write something about Harris.” “Sure boss. How’s this?” “But it’s good.” “Well sure. She connects with audiences. You can’t say that is a bad thing.” “Son, this is Politico. Of course we can especially that uppity bitch Democrat.” Politico 2019

Politico, stop that. Now. bebest

Now do Trump.

You mean 20 months before the election she doesn’t have rehearsed answers to complex policy questions?

It's always something, something blah blah about a fault in a female candidate. Why do Americans hate women? Why are Americans so threatened by women?

LIES!

Oh for fucks sake.

Amazing how Kamala & Amy seem to be top contenders on the democratic side & yet get so much critical press about their personalities. 🙄 I just re-read a shitty article about HRC’s first rally & it pissed me off anew. Bernie’s known to be an ass — any articles on his temperament?

omg, there's literally no way to win with you guys.

Hillary had too many specifics, Kamala not enough. 🙄

To a fault? THIS is what our elected officials are SUPPOSED to do! But if that's the best you got on her, vs. a Cretan who is really a sybarite and hedonist, raping the budget of the American people, then I will take her any day.

This lady is a fraud and clown!

ccadelago you write this sh•t? This is how you give Trump another 4 years. Knock it off, bro.

This is a singularly weak effort to criticize Harris.

MSM, cut the crap. The only reason U publish this BS is bc she's a woman. Already finding 'fault' with how she bonds with her supporters is not a fault. It's a strength. She's not white, male, older - damn she's not Bernie! (Sarcasm) Stop, just stop.

Dear Politico...

I’ve made the case before ... we deserve another President WOMAN and we’ve earned an all Western Presidential ticket ... GavinNewsom you up for a HarrisVP position?

'But her likeability.' This is so fucking tired!

Every Dem's general solution to the immigration problem is in the same constellation: Get the gop out of power so we can do something. Then we can pass comprehensive immigration reform that will balance interests, reflect humanity, respect human rights and improve America.

'Politico Officially Endorses Trump'

Her father won’t even talk to her. She a home wrecker who sleeps with married men. And you all hate Trump? Lol hypocrites! Got to love people who want to vote for someone who wanted to fine homeless parents for not putting their kids in school. That the way to fix situations. Smh

Stop. Don’t. Don’t nit pick our candidates while we have a corrupt Republican Party allowing a traitor to destroy democracy! UniteBlue ResponsibleJournalism

Politico is determined to undermine KamalaHarris2020 'sometimes to a fault.' 🙄

LOL, connecting to clowns!

Garbage writing.

Pick one, fuckbag. She doesn’t simultaneously get to be out of touch and connecting with audiences to a fault at the same time.

Here's Politico, stirring up shit about a candidate before campaign season even starts. Meanwhile, in the White House...

Stop, just stop. This will not work this time. Get some writers who will treat women fairly.

damned if she does damned if she doesn't huh?I guess we should be thanking our lucky stars this ridiculous headline doesn't read,'is Kamala Harris unlikeable?'I couldn't find an opinion author attached to this BS.The fact that you'll are suppose to be journalist boggles the mind

Y’all are pathetic

Oh please. Now she’s too likable Now do a male republican. Pick one. I’ll wait.

Get bent, .

really? 😩

Should she hump the flag like the president?

Someone is going to perceive Any critique of Harris as sexist racist yadda yadda because already it's feeling like any critique of her is unfounded How are we to rule out candidates if they're not critiqued? I know many Blks who see her as inauthentic So what's the rule for her

, is this you at your bebest ?

WOW! Sure don’t see you reporting on male candidates the same way. Time to increase donations to her campaign. You are SO out of touch

Wha..? Who's writing this 💩?

So she’s TOO likeable? WTF Politico. Of course the article is by a man.

Connecting with type of audiences that carry drool cups perhaps. Or wear black masks and carry clubs with 'kill Trump' engraved on them. Or repeatedly stand around and shout 'racist' 'racist' at all passerby's regardless. Or have an IQ of 'can't find it.' Or, you get idea.

You are just determined to get this wrong, aren’t you?🤬🤬🤬

Did y’all see TREASON CPAC ramble today ......and this is what y’all worry about.....Lord help us😫

I wish I knew the German word for “hot smelly garbage.”

Was she 'overprepared'

I’m just here to add to the Ratio

Politico: “can a woman be too likable?”

SERIOUSLY?! Stop this BS. Stop it.

That's not difficult with audiences this small. Sorry not sorry. 🤷‍♂️

This headline used for any male candidates?

Just stop.

FFS, have we learned NOTHING from 2016?!

One suspects it would be impossible for a woman to get it right... Why not criticise her policies rather than her manner?

She a weak individual

Seriously?

I’ve had enough of this

This article is misogynistic steaming garbage - sometimes to a fault!

Oh FGS. How obvious can misogynistic click bait be? I wouldn’t read this crap if it were the last thing on Earth with words.

She’s likeable. No, she’s unlikeable. Oh no! She’s likeable again.

Wth, politico. That's some schlocky BS!

In what universe?

Here we go again

Delete your account.

sOmEtImEs tO A fAuLt

Are you KIDDING me with this shit?! Who needs the Russians in 2020 when we’ve got crap like this?!

Shame politico !

This is utter BS. Talk about the issues. Your sexism is showing.

You fuckups still just. dont. get it. , do you need a new news editor? Cause I'll gladly spare my lunch hour to come up with stories that actually matter. Call me.

What does that even mean?

is this a JOKE? This is Bernie's second run, and he can't answer any questions directly, even ones of issues that he just handled 3 weeks ago. Why are you going after Kamala? Why does Bernie get a pass?

This should be a headline in The Onion maybe?

So Hillary was a policy wonk who can’t relate to others, and Kamala Harris relates too well? Got it. Oy vey.

Vast swathes of US Media issues absolutely useless. This is a great example.

This is trashhhh

Unfollowed. Little babies you are.

This is a bullshit click bait article. You will start to lose followers if you continue to publish such biased crap. Do better.

I love all the horrible takes by people who literally admit they didn’t even read the article lol. No it’s not sexist, it’s a critique of lack of policy substance.

Wow, Politico I'm starting to think you need to have some gender bias training with your journalists because this shit ain't flying. Get Christopher a front row seat.

Do better.

Is she 'overprepared' to connect with audiences? Or are the audiences at fault?

WTAF?

Lol…so funny you have to tell us this instead of letting her power to speak and actually connect do the work….

❤

Sort of like dog shit connects to a shoe ?

Politico doing the hard hitting reporting. Hey, have you guys heard about Hillary's emails?

This is just.....AAARRRGGGHHH! I mean, come the hell on already! They did this to HRC, but barely a word about the sweeping asinine statements that DJT made as a candidate. He is president and still less specific (when not outright lying) than KH’s answers are already. Just STOP!

Awful article. Worst sort of 'horse race' reporting.

If you ever wondered what it's like to get ratioed... 👍

Shame on you, Politico, for posting these sexist articles. Do better than this nonsense.

Here we go.🙄when I read the first line I was pleasantly surprised. Then there was “sometimes to a fault.” Should’ve known better So this guy wasn’t 100% pleased with the way Ms Harris answered a question, so he wrote a stupid article.

No. Don't you dare.

PUNCH YOURSELVES IN THE FACE

what has she done not a thing but get white people to get her hired for those positions I'll ask her to pull down her pant so you can insert tongue twist and tell me how good she is

FU

It's Politico NOT politica..

Eek. Guys don’t start this sexist narrative again, after the horror show of 2016. This is like that over prepared nonsense that got said about Hillary. BlueWave2020

God forbid the HRC cultists who will take any criticism of a flawed candidate as sexism bring us another 4 years of Trump...Kamala is the wrong candidate at this time and she is grossly unprepared.

Horseshit headlIne. No need to read further.

Here we go! biasedmedia sexist

Her word salad is always delicious!

This sexist hit piece is garbage! Fire this “writer”, there are plenty of better ones ready to do actual journalism.

between the lines: it's a fvcking trainwreck

Too a fault? Man you guys in the media find any stupid reason to attack any female Democrats. Now your attempting to turn a positive into negative. Ridiculous.

Here we go again. Ugh Politico can't you just write a piece on any woman without the she's too nice or she's too prepared angle. Are you all so afraid of strong women? Don't pull the Hillary smear on another good candidate.

What a passive aggressive headline. She connects with the audience to a fault? Sorry, but as politicians go, I see that as a positive.

Oh good God ... I am deleting this account!

So basically, you don't want a woman to be the Democrat nominee or as President. There is no Goldilocks between too cold or too warm for a woman candidate...you just want a man. Admit it.

Sounds like a ... problem?

This is truly shit-tier journalism.

Oh ffs knock it off

Why are men so scared of strong women?

Other headlines by Politico: 'She's pretty, almost too pretty' 'She enunciates well, speaks almost too clearly' 'She smiles - shows too many teeth' 'She smells fresh - she should shower less' 🖕🏽

More prisons 2020

America: Of COURSE we want a woman president, just not that woman, Hillary Clinton. Warren: How about me? America: Problematic. Harris: How about me? America: Nah. Gillibrand: How about me? America: Still Nah. Klobuchar: How about me? America: New phone who dis

SMH.

Lol slow news day, politico?

Technocrats and centrists usually have this problem.

No she's not

needs to have an in-house seminar on how to write headlines.

And “Hillary was too prepared”

Omfg. Are you kidding me with this critique?

Jesus. This is dumb.

Now would be a good time to make another donation:

Voters know a phony when they see one. And this particular phony is being forced to run against the person she's been her entire career.

This kind of junk click bait is why I no longer follow Politico.

Where do you columnists get off with this patriarchal trash masquerading as political analysis?

What? Shut up. No click for you.

Oh shoot the lady candidate is now Too relatable!!!

Bashing her already? Nice.

jojos444 But, I This article on Kamala is exactly what the media writes about women. I'm surprise it said anything positive-wouldn't matter how detailed she was, they certainly are not going to give Her too much credit, no we can't have that- that's saved for Biden & Bernie

Connecting with an audience is a good thing. It's called charisma. 🙃

Really? This is what you want to say? Did you pay attention to 2016? DoBetter !!!!!!

So you criticise female candidates for not connecting to people, they do so, and suddenly it goes to a fault. Seriously, I'm starting to question if I should follow you.

We’re NOT doing this. Stop.

jojos444 This is why Hillary is the best. She's a policy nerd. She alway said She likes to roll up Her sleeves and work behind the scenes writing policy. I always felt Hillary DID connect well, but more importantly knew Her stuff and knows how to get shit done.

Don't do this. Just stop.

Wait, wut?

If she were a man this wouldn’t be the headline. Stop this.

How do you even have a job with these kind of stupid takes?

Please don't vote at all for any candidate. None of them deserve a vote they are all money hungry self-centered assholes who don't give 2 shits about any of us if you want the truth. Democrats or Republicans.

Wtf is wrong with y'all?

Her record is the problem cuz it shows how racist her policies that she supported are. What are you guys at Politico smoking over there where you think connecting to audiences is a fault?

Gotta love this race to the bottom you seem to be having w/ thehill. You guys should write about THAT.

Wtf is wrong with you?

GFY

Total fakenews and you trying to make her sound relevant isn’t working....

“ccadelago writes articles — sometimes to a fault.” HTH.

Really? I guess I was sleeping...

Well. It WAS written by a man.

There doesn't seem to be any actual content on this piece. Certainly nothing that couldn't be summed up in one wrongheaded paragraph.

enjoy your hard-earned ratio, folks. keep movin them goalposts and this could be a regular thing for yall

Politico I’m thisclose to blocking you.

She is definitely not ready for prime time .

Pray tell, does Biden also connect with his audience to a fault? 🤦‍♀️ I suggest assigning a female reporter to Kamala instead. It's clear the men have too much baggage. 🙄

FFS, politico you truly are the worst.

Politico says, 'The excitement [Harris]'s generating and her profile as a charismatic, mixed-race progressive, they said, is creating a sense that she may be the candidate who best matches the mood of Democratic voters at this moment.'

Not likable enough. Too likable. Hm.

Unfollowing ✌️

Stop it.

Connecting to no one. She is shameful.

🎵 Here we go, again 🎵

Happy to see the shameful ratio on this.

Hillary was too stiff and Kamala is too likable. Can you please just say what you mean and write articles about how they are too female to get appropriate coverage from your organization?

This is disgusting, Politico. Shame on you.

Oh brother this is how we fucking got trump. She’s perfect KamalaBeto2020

Make up my mind - is it not likeable or too likeable that is bad/good? I’m so confused.

Wtf?

What is wrong with you? Why are you attacking her? Is it the her part? Or the brown part? Or both?

You really haven’t learned a goddamn thing, have you.

From article: '“I liked her,” said Mike McCauley, an Obama campaign and administration veteran from South Carolina. At the Harris event he attended, McCauley said he overheard peo saying 'it felt like Obama again.' “She has a sense of humor, and her laugh is utterly disarming.'

When women are just too good...

What the fuck does this mean?

She’s Emma Stone from The Favourite. EmmaStone TheFavourite

LOVING the ratio!!!

Quit it 🤬

I'm not sure I've ever seen a lede more... wrong. Just plain wrong. Please remember it's 2019. We all need to be acting like it is.

I’m stuck on when it became a bad thing to connect with people. She has a message, she answers questions. This article is terrible. NowDoTheMen

¿Qué mierda es esto, ccadelago? Are you really criticizing KamalaHarris for too being prepared? My god, we can’t do this misogynist mierda otra vez.

Seriously, what does this even mean?

No one will lament when you all are laid off.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is a joke, right?

Lol

She certainly “connected” w CA grandpa when she needed a hand up the political ladder

Wow. You guys just don't like strong women candidates, do you?

because of course it's a fault when the ladies do it 🙄 pull your pants up, Politico, your misogyny's showing

What was she wearing? Did she smile enough?

Two likeable? smiles too much? Mean while, men can eat their boogers are be presidential looking....smdh. Do better.

Newsflash: no one likes Kamala

She’s awful.

Connecting with audiences and potential voters is... bad? THAT’S THE TAKE YOU’RE GOING WITH?!

Please stop

Not connecting enough! Connecting to much! Freaking giant yawn.

Really Are we gonna do another 2016 repeat election, Media!

So she’s the anti Hilary 🙄🙄🙄🙄 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

She probably over prepares for debates too.

I think this earns a mute.

She a ho.

Oh gee, thanks politico. These are VERY valuable stories. Tearing down our only chances to remove the most deranged lunatic ever in American politics on an uninformed hunch, real good, that.

But if Beto or Bernie or Joe or Starbucks Howard utters some pithy oratory or rides a skateboard or eats junk food, that connection with the people — which it is— instead of policy specifics, garners weeks of praise & adulation. 🙄

Politico is catering to a white male audience — sometimes to a fault.

Wtf?

JFC WTF

Stop it. JUST STOP

No.

Maybe she should just make some broad sweeping promises, then say “I alone can fix it”, and the awed “she’s a disruptor!” comments can start.

Such a nice warm pile of it, 'politico.' TwentyfiveFortyFive

Do the Democrats run the risk of being too popular? Please stop!

I came for the comments and I was not let down.

Let me guess: she's TOO likable!

Wtf?

So... she sometimes gives a vague response that doesn’t directly answer a question? Can you point to one politician who hasn’t done that?

'politician under construction' Yes. I am a huge supporter of Kamala Harris but not of her candidacy without a full term in the Senate. Embarrassing questioning of Kavanaugh, premature support of GND, lack of real solutions to immigration issues … too soon to run, much to learn.

Is she also too prepared? 🖕🖕

🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 Satan’sAdvocate

just doing my bit for the ratio on this piping hot crap

BaHaha Haha hahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂

Do you even hear yourself?

As long as you understand why your article is being ratioed, ccadelago

oh shut up

Did Chuck Todd write this bullshit?

WTF Iis wrong with you?

'She's TOO good, which is why she may lose, guys'

Who the fuck wrote this headline? Chuck Todd?! C’mon assholes, THIS happened today. Rosenstein was nominated by Trump as DAG and Senate Confirmed 94-6, and only after Comey’s firing did he appoint Mueller OSC.

rainyjoan What is this garbage?! Not reading it and definitely not buying it.

Holy bias! 😱

But is she over-prepared? What does Chuck Todd think?

'Connecting to a fault'. Jaysus. Who hires these people to write for them? I remember the media in 2016 & how they did their best to divide & confuse with trivia & misinformation. This feels like a 1st strike hit job on Kamala. So stupid.

Delete your account.

Wait, so should she smile less?

Connecting to Audiences of Tupac and Snoop dog,before they had them. That's amazing!

Can you guys just cut to the chase and tell us what a woman needs to do to be an acceptable candidate to your lackwit writers please? We really can’t afford to let garbage political journalism sink the country again

Apparently, Democratic women can’t do anything in our political media.

Guy 1 in a fedora: OK. So. She's likable. *takes drag on cigarette* But is she too likable? Guy 2, wearing sunglasses indoors: Dude! Guy 1: I know! Guy 2: That's our headline! Guy 1: First round of Mountain Dew is on me! Rest of the guys: *throws fedoras in the air*

I've NEVER seen an article like this about Beto, Booker, Trump, and/or Bernie. 'She's connecting with people to a fault'? Has that ever actually been a thing or did you just make it up, so you could have a reason to criticize her? This is pathetic! Stop embarrassing yourselves!

Childless first generation affirmative action beneficiaries should not run for public office. Kamala Harris has no American past and no American future.

You guys just lack any modicum of awareness don’t ya

Are you kidding? Seriously? What is she supposed to do? Lay out the path she needs to take according to politico.

We’ve just completely lost the plot, haven’t we?

are you capable of discussing policy or is that like a mythical gnome

Wow. Too connected. Too prepared. Too much like Obama. One topic she admitted to be “conflicted”. Oh yeah... two X chromosomes... you got everything you need to shoot her down.

Also, she seems serious, focused and qualified ... sometimes to a fault. GTFOH.

Lawd, what's next?

You folks never learn, do you? Criticizing a woman for doing something WELL doesn't ring any alarm bells for you? None at ALL? This is 'overprepared' 2.0, and you should be ashamed.

Whaaaaa?! Another hit job, Politico?

Really? This is what we’re doing now?

lol wut

. Are we going back in time? Next are you going to critique her for her haircut?

Why...cause she’s a woman?

🖕🖕🖕🖕

What is WRONG with you? Very irresponsible and ignorant.

Why not just replace your twitter avatar with a blinking GIF that says 'We just won't let women succeed'?

Did Kamala not make the author a sammich or something? This is a garbage take.

I can't even imagine how you're spinning this, and no I'm not going to give your trash publication any revenue by clicking on this bullshit.

Hey Politico,it's too goddamned early in the campaign for a story filled with this much bullshit about detailed plans/preparation. She's not fucking Bernie or Biden who derive their talking points from stale 10 yr old slide sets.Would you have written this about them? Get a grip.

Oh my God, what do women have to do,! Fucking WHAT?!

Now if only she would connect with some detailed policies and the credibility to actually follow through with them... Or is that too much to ask of a candidate for the Presidency?

sexism

This is on par with 'She prepares too much'. Are you for real?

Not all audiences. Have we seen her connect with Indians? Nah. KamalaHarris

Hillary overprepared for the debates!

Too much connecting, is that anything like too much chocolate? impossible. Your criticism is obviously unfair, just a return to 2016 biased reporting.

After President Trump gets the wall built problems like this go away. Soooo what else do they have? Nada!

Where are the HIT pieces on the male candidates?

Y'all really don't want a woman president, do you? Holy shit.

In Sf & NY?

This is such an anti-woman headline. Lame, Politico!

Omg Politico.

Knock it off, Politico.

This is just gross. Just stop. Really. Dont2016Us

WTAF is wrong with you people?

Politico is fake news. The person or persons that wrote this BS should be terminated. You people have no credibility. Shame on you!

Tiger Beat on the Potomac strikes again. (With apologies to CharlesPPierce the legend)

So Hillary was too wonkish and couldn’t connect. Kamala is connecting too much? Just say it, women shouldn’t run for President. I’d respect you more.

Spare us these “hot takes” on the Dem candidates. Hillary was too prepared, and Kamala connects too much with the audience. We do not need another re-run of 2016 where MSM manufactures non-existent candidate flaws. Kamala2020 Harris2020 KamalaHarris2020 ForThePeople Dems

'She's TOO good at connecting with people.' Lol

The article says she lacks precision on policy and resorts to “leaning on anecdotes to connect with audiences.” Don’t they know that’s EXACTLY how you get elected? duh

This is embarrassing. I’m embarrassed for you. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Since when did a politician connecting with voters become a bad thing?

Here for the ratio.

You have got to be kidding me with this shit.

What is wrong with you, ? Do you think we don’t SEE that you’re mired in misogynist stereotypes? Do you think women are playing when we refuse to be 2016’ed? Do you think we don’t have a choice in politico news? Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Dont2016Us

Kamala Harris, who refused everyone’s calls to prosecute Mnuchin but jailed struggling parents of truant kids, connects TOO MUCH with regular people.

Seriously? Did one of your staff actually write this nonsense headline?

Did you learn nothing from 2016?

JFC, delete your account and then ship yourself into space.

talk about her policies and politics. Not this sexist BS.

Um. Just stop. Ignorant.

Hahahahahahafuckyouhahahahahahaha

Wait, so she’s too likeable? Give me a break

Only female dems are expected to meet the highest standards of being immaculately prepared to reinvent the wheel before they're even in a primary.

Not this election, Satan. Not this one.

After all the 'likeability' 'smile more' 'shoulda met with bigger audiences' claptrap about Clinton, now we're told Harris is too likeable, smiles too much, and reaches out to too many people.

No. You can’t be serious . This is as bad as HRC has too much policy. Misogyny JournalismFail DoBetter HireWomen

This is a ridiculous take.

GFY

Honest question, did anybody speak that headline out loud and slow to get how wrong it was?

Boo

Wow Politico learned nothing from 2016 election

When the media shows it true colors. Believe them

Just stop.

Oh my God... this clickbait is Enquirer worthy... Politico should hire new people...

Who wrote this toenail of a headline? Are their shoes too tight?

Oh FFS. Go home. You’re drunk.

This doesn't make any sense

When it comes to Dems Politico continues to have some of the worst political reporting in the legit business. This one made me a little misty cuz it reminds me of the old Obama, 'They're doing all the right things, but is it too much too soon?'

Politico: Oh look another female candidate we can hold to an impossible standard.

Let's just admit that everything she does is a fault now and we'll all save so much time

🖕🏻

So... TOO likable...

Communists don’t connect

JFC, knock it off. How about, 'Kamala Harris is connecting with audiences.' And then what makes audiences like her.

Misogynist garbage. Incompetence. Do better, Politico!

'In the past, she’s avoided the media and sometimes come off as too programmed.' Huh, where have we heard that before Good on politico to include that little nugget. We see what you're doing here.

I’m trying to picture the equivalent Beto headline.

I know it's still early but this going to remain in the running for the worst take of the entire 2020 election cycle

Is too many people liking you Actually Bad?

What the actual fuckery is this?!

“But her emails!”

This tweet is bullshit misogyny plain and simple. KamalaHarris is great candidate and so was Hillary. Tweets like this brought about Trump. Tweet out an apology to women everywhere

So when is Bernie releasing a decade’s worth of tax returns?

Omg what a headline

Oh for the love of god.....’Hillary didn’t connect with the voters, she wasn’t likable’. Now Kamala ‘connects to a fault’

Kamala only knows how to get to the top by sleeping with Willy otherwise she is a nobody and a big nothing

Stop doing this.

What !!!she connects with the people and and this is a problem!!! KamalaHarris I don't know how you do it, you will be treated differently because you are a black woman. Get ready for the BS.

Again targeting female politicians. What about Beto who even takes the niceness and deflection to another level. Let’s get some balance here.

You guys are ridiculous.

The hell?

Wonderful. Media learned nothing from 2016.

Lmao. politico is trash.

This insanely high standard does a disservice to America. We have a President who can't string together a coherent sentence without a teleprompter, and you're worried that Kamala DOESN'T KNOW EVERYTHING YET? Disgusting.

i'd say, do better. but i doubt you could.

Politico is scared of Harris.

Really? You couldn’t do better than this?

Another right wing politicohitjob

The misogyny is real. 😒 In the article, the way the two 'politicos' responded was based on gender, with the man viewing her through a stereotypical lens, just like the author. You guys just can't help yourselves.

Maybe let's talk about something important? You can save the barely-veiled hostility for later.

Politico: wow that Harris post is getting Ratioed pretty hard. Quick! Let’s publish some more content about women! Also Politico:

get some writers with critical thinking🤔 you seriously find connecting to ppl perplexing. WTF

Another day. Another weak take from Politico.

What is this...Politico or the local bar?

Another hypercritical, misogynistic hit piece on a female 2020 candidate? Media: “We’re better than THIS.” Disappointing

Eat this ratio, clowns. You’re like if they started an entire media operation and hired 200 Chris Cillizas.

Oh, give it up. The country's moved on from your silly tropes.

So what is it? The shoulder pads are too much? Oh, wait: now she is not wonky enough, unlike Hillary who was 'over-prepared' and that's also a problem because she didn't 'connect'. Welcome to the 2016 election coverage, brought to you by the never satisfied dicks of the press.

She can’t win

The reason Politico is terrible is because it is overwhelmingly white and male. It’s basically Fox News Lite at this point.

What does that even mean?

If it takes this much work to problematize a campaign, maybe it's not actually problematic! It could just be that you have a bone to pick!

So she's too good at connecting with people. But the title of this article shows that you could take lessons from her. Unfollow.

Politico sucks.

? Politico× Politico! POLITICO& politico!!! StopIt neeratanden

Why the need to pick her apart? damn

When are y’all gonna end the pretense and endorse Donald Trump for president?

This is an absurd and shameful article.

WILL KAMALA ALLOW KILLING BABIES? JUST AN ANSWER!

What the AF, Politico? Can you please not participate in the “We need women leaders—just not her” bullsh*t! Stop. Be f*cking better.

I’m embarrassed I ever thought of your site as a place of serious journalism

Delete you entire news org and start...oh never mind

Are you shitting me? lol

This CANNOT be real.

Gotta connect with the people and be likeable. But hey wait don’t connect too much!! Ooops now you’re just TOO likeable. 🤨 wtf

Shut up.

But her...... whatever. Women’s History Month but not on Politico.

2016 called. It wants its headline back.

WTF? Our president is a lying criminal but she connects too well with audiences . Why not go with the classic 2016 twist; is she too likable. Are you trying to get everyone to ignore you?

🖕🏼

So your main criticism is that she hadn't formulated specific policies for *some* issues and this is the headline you run? Are your interns writing the headlines?

Predictable Politico 🙄

Ugh

Wtf is wrong with you?

I refuse to read stories with headlines like this.

Jesus on a pogo stick.

Cause of her uterus, right? Waiting for the same article on a dude.

To be very clear ccadelago and who ever at edited this are clearly sexists shits. Some assholes have learned nothing from 2016.

Shit 'journalism'

Too likeable? Too prepared? Too emotional? Too good? Too smart? Really?

Mansplaining

Bye bye POLITICO! I’m unfollowing here and on FB — telling others to do the same. This isn’t journalism — stop it!

🖕🏼

Uh oh. Did she smile too much? JustNotThatWoman

The only new change is rung by Bernie. Dammit...

Unfollowed

“To a fault”?

You'd never say this about a man Politico. Stop with this misogynistic crap.

Politico, don't start this sh*t.

Oh come on FFS.

I'm sure she'll be over-prepared for the debates too. Right, Politico?

this is trash

The women-hating Politico strikes again

Careful, Politico. You're misogyny is showing.

Seriously? This is a thoughtful piece that enlightens & serves the public? You can—and have—done so much better than this GFY

Spot on 2016 headline.

DO YOU EVEN THINK BEFORE YOU PUBLISH?

You have already proven that you are 'not better than this.' You have done a number of these pieces on the female candidates this season, & you are clearly not learning that we are NOT having it this time around. Move on or wither, be warned, there is no home for you this season.

Christopher Cadelago. Remember this name. He’s the sexism PoS behind his article. If you work in a Dem campaign, make sure this sexist SOB doesn’t get any access to your campaign or any officials. Hope your career and credibility are ruined forever ccadelago.

Sexist much?

whatv does that even mean?

Why even write this?

Unfollowed

That is so dumb I think you gave me cancer.

Hey , can you please tone down the misogyny. Your journalistic prejudices are beginning to show. And yes, Kamala Harris is an outstanding and formidable candidate, who people can easily relate to.

yeeesh. this tweet/headline is part of the problem.

Because Trump won by giving specifics on policy... 😒 This is complete nonsense.

Just like Hillary was over prepared, right? 🤦🏽‍♀️The press has learned absolutely nothing from its 2016 mistakes.

That’s it. I’m done with . Not clicking on, sharing, or rage tweeting about anything you do until you fucking learn to be better than this. The republic is on fire and you’re part of the problem.

Time to unfollow

Silly article. If she's connecting emotionally and relating questions to legislation or a general immigration policy, she's doing great. Seems the author knows nothing about politics. Giving exact policies on controversial issues 2 years out is suicide.

Really, Politico? You want to start the 2016 shit? Won't work.

This bullshit is M👏🏻I👏🏻S👏🏻O👏🏻G👏🏻Y👏🏻N👏🏻I👏🏻S👏🏻T👏🏻I👏🏻C! STOP IT!

Her big skid marks, perhaps...

[Insert Dem Candidate] is [Insert Positive Attribute] but [Make positive attribute a negative]

politico - unfollowed

You mean she’s putting arrogant idiots in their place when they ask a “gotcha!” question? Good. I like her more.

Wtf?

This is hot garbage. Do better

Stop. It’s not that difficult to come up with something truly important to write about.

Careful, your misogyny is showing. Again.

Why are you so terrible at your job?

Oh? Is she maybe overprepared?

Too prepared? Will that be the new take? Jesus, Politico sucks.

Just stop already!!!

This different set of standards for female candidates is pissing me off big time. Isn’t this 2019?

Politico gone fishing again.

Nice misogyny, bro.

politico 2020 'She won the presidency- but to a fault'

Who the hell wrote this headline?

Stop it!

This article needs a better title. I almost didn’t open it because I thought, “Really? This is an actual criticism of someone who might be a challenger of Donald Effing Trump?” Write headlines that sound less like ones we could find in a crappy magazine.

Jesus, do you think the media can start treating all candidates with some respect.

Seems kind of early for a hit piece. Serious question: Do you ever openly acknowledge the distinction between o Op-Ed and reporting, or should we just assume you are Op-Ed all the time?

Ugh. Politico. PLEASE. STOP.

Delete your account.

This kind of shit is why I unfollowed Politico long ago.

You’ve given me no reason to read this. Wtf is this?

Oh ffs 🙄

ccadelago this is two “hot take” ratio-inspiring trash pieces in two weeks. Gonna be hard to keep that pace up.

Up yours for this continual garbage. Stop demonstrating that you learned nothing from 2016, bros.

'To a fault,' huh?

Unfollowed

Shut your traps. Remember when Hillary was “too prepared” for the debate? Why are you doing this AGAIN.

“sometimes to a fault”? WTF!? another headline that would never be used for a man

Soon she will be too prepared.

Come on Politico.

What? Why is this bad?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Terrible headline. Won’t click.

aka 'why no one takes seriously'

She's too likable and charismatic, I guess.

She’s play dough or Gumby - twist her , shape her, any way that suits you to donate or vote for her 🙄

“When Harris did give the occasional interview, she was prone to slip-ups. For example, she wasn't familiar with two proposed Northern California reservoirs...”

This is a garbage take.

Are you kidding It’s like they can’t win.

DNC, CNN & Superdelegate pick.......lets skip the primaries & just nominate......

Too likable now? Not likable enough? Too shrill? Too smart? Too old? Too, too, too female.

Unleash the misogyny hounds.

Where's the beef? And by beef I mean policy.

Damn her....she is just like us!!!! How can we worship that......I love het

No , she tries to hard. She’s a fake. She’s a phony,

{Insert female candidate's name here} is more than qualified, and we're going to explain why that's bad. Again.

I don’t want to hear any crap from you guys. We’ve had trump for over 2 years. Run a list of his faults and lies. That should keep you busy for years to come. Weak men prey on women. Punks!

.... what?

So Clinton was overprepared but not liked enough and Harris is ... overliked?

You can see the sexism and misogyny pouring out of ccadelago’s eyes, pouring out of his wherever when he wrote this BS.

Stop!!

Good grief. Dies Mitch McConnell connect to his audience? Who will ask?

Do I have to read it or just assume it’s sexist based on the lede?

How is this a problem?

GFY

She’s “connected” to a lot of people. HeelsUp

🖕

Delete your account

I rolled my eyes so hard, I fell off my chair.

Odd reply. I voted for her and think she has room for growth in the primary

Geeshus cripes

It's a fault to connect with audiences? How much Trump have you been smoking?

So let me get this straight...Hillary couldn’t connect and it was a problem. Now, Kamala connects too well and it’s also a problem. Translation: women are the problem in powerful positions. Got it. WomensHistoryMonth

And all those detailed, well articulated and vetted policies and proposals are what got that orange monstrosity elected. Right?! So I guess Kamala smiles too much to be President. Got it.

Another fake.

She is? Ok.

Like hell she is

Seriously? Don't do this. We're not having it this time.

That tweet is a really bad take so I won't waste my time with your article.

“Connecting To A Fault?” 🤷🏽‍♀️ So is that really the misogynist road you’ve chosen to travel politico? 🤦🏽‍♀️ KamalaHarris is connecting with audiences! See how easy that was? I fixed it for you. You’re Welcome!

Hmm...first y’all said Hillary was cold and didn’t connect with people and now y’all saying Kamala is connecting too much.

Bullshit.

🙄🙄🙄

Misogynistic publication

The political hit pieces are out of control this season.

'...remains a politician under construction.' !?!?! WTAF is up with Politico these days? 🔥🤬🔥

oh FFS..

OH FFS! What is this nonsense? The critique of women in politics is so sexist it makes me want to hurl! 🙄

Gotta have the horserace for better ratings, more clicks or whatever. If actual journalism was practiced, we might have an FDR over Hoover landslide... an unspeakable tragedy for the Politicos of the world.

I guess the “Trump ShitShow” is paying off for the media, so they’re gonna rip another woman apart, hoping it will drive up their ratings. Pathetic!

But gosh is she likable? What’s her laugh like? Her voice?

Stop already.

Oh, for Heaven's sake! I swear, some male journalists seek only to cut women down to size. I suppose we should count our blessings, though. Ol' Christopher here could've just dismissed her as a bitch - or worse. 🙄

yes don't vote for her because she's TOO likable

Trumpolitico

Oh dear lord, this is dumb.

You never stop trying to outdo the terrible media BS of 2016

Does she need to smile more too? Or maybe not quite as much? Make sure she's getting exactly the right amount of smile?

No. Just no.

Let me guess....I don’t even have to read the article! SHE’S A “GASP” WOMAN!!!!

Can you folks in the media STOP with this 'Ratings before Country' crap?

What the fuck

She blew Willie ,she connects with the people ? Hmmm

MisogynyIsSo2016

Lordt, now here comes the 'too likable' narrative. You people are absolutely awful.

Uh ccadelago have you written an article titled “Bernie Sanders puts off audiences - and always to a fault.” You drag her for generalities but literally Bernie’s plan is put out in 140 characters of complaints.

Don’t see how- paper thin resume- no noteworthy bills in CA, flip flops on her Prosecutor Attorney time but loved her time under Willie Brown.

Your misogyny is showing.

Are you trying to get Trump re-elected? Is it Ratings before Country again?

Vet Sanders please.

Kamala “I’m for everything Bernie was for 50 years ago” Harris

This headline is such a joke that only Politico could write

Typical crap from Politico...they have an army of “reporters” whose sole mission is to bring down women candidates.

No one wants Hillary Jr

WTF with this headline. Get back to me when you write some crap like this about a male Candidate 🖕🏻

She's going to win it all and you buttnuggets need to get ready, get used to it, and get comfortable with women being in charge. We are the base. Feel free to stop being misogynist prix anytime.

Vote blue blue blue!

I’m all in with KamalaHarris

To a fault? Really Politico? Do you say this about men Candidates? No you don't so just stop

Time to unfollow

Audiences aka voters. You really can't help yourselves, can you? Next you'll complain she's too prepared or winning by too much or having too big of crowds...

God, this publication is garbage.

misogynists take again

Why are you so bad at this ?

'To a fault'?

The 2019 version of “over prepared”.

Let me go donate to her again. Thanks for the reminder ccadelago misogynoir Kamala2020

WTF are you talking about?!? That headline only works with Trump in it

Who wrote this ridiculous bullspit? What a stupid pretense.

Face it. You don't like identity politics either.

Wtf? What does that even mean?

Holy Politico.

You people haven’t learned. And in the end, if you dont realize it, you’ll be partly responsible. AGAIN.

Typical sexism of media judging SenKamalaHarris harder than they judge male candidates! That's why we ended up with a racist, sexist, crooked conman in the White House!

Stop.

Please stop with this kind of crap.

Is this the 2019 version of 'Hillary was TOO prepared'?

WTF is wrong with you?

It's very ....human.... to connect with other humans. That's wrong?

So what this means is she is a shapeshifter who changes for the crowd. What they mean is shes fake. Btw we've seen this before. Its 100% professionalism for Clinton but in a larger black area shes all talking about hot sauce in her purse. Fake people. Hence fake news

Is this the same “she’s overprepared” jab the media threw at HillaryClinton? Stop it.

Now do Bernie

She thinks she could actually win which is the funnies part of it all!

So connecting with audiences is now bad. Got it. Hey Politico, what was that deranged 2 hour meltdown that Trump had goin' on today?

Wrong headline, dudes. misogynoir

Oh ffs stop

You're really going to make the next two years miserable, aren't you?

Oh for fuck’s sake…

WHAT DOES SHE TRUELY BELIEVE IN BECAUSE ITS NOT AMERICA OR ITS CITIZENS!!!!

being good is bad. being left is right. being purple is yellow. *yawn*

Is this even an ATTEMPT at serious political commentary or just a new misogynist take down of a Democratic Party candidate. FFS!!! DO BETTER. It’s pathetic.

Really Politico? Really?

Did you mean 'She was prepared...some would say TOO prepared'?

Delete your account.

Delete your account. 🙄

This is the only woman who will meet their standards at the end of the day...ladies and gentleman, Mrs. Biden!

This is a victim article made solely so you can feel sorry for a candidate and sympathize with them. It's not going to work. Stop trying this shady bullshit.

'She's not personable', 'She's not likeable', 'People can't relate to her'...'She is relating too well w/audiences'. So sick of this shit being said about women candidates. Where's the similar ones about MEN? Where's the 'Bernie doesn't connect very well w/women or POC' articles?

FFS. Maybe she's TOO likable. Needs to smile less.

rachel dolezal?

Everyone involved in publishing this should be too embarrassed to ever work in media again.

Shut up.

Finger in the wind candidate

For everyone complaining that this article is “sexist”... it’s the same as dozens written about Obama in 2007. This will go away (except for Breitbart/Fox “News”) as KamalaHarris campaign puts out detailed campaign positions and policy statements. KamalaHarris2020 Chillout

I'm tempted to find the author here on Twitter and tell him how I feel. So now it's a problem if a candidate is too likable?

Can be sure that if it was a Bernie crowd you'd be all about it wouldn't you? Praising him for his skill and charisma. Expressing awe at his brilliance. Misogyny. Just like 2016.

Connecting is a good thing.

White male....nope.

Because we have to find something negative about at least one woman candidate per week.

Her = Audience The President = Stadiums Big difference.

ColleenHolt20 omg SHUT UP

She is who she is

The bros in the media are desperately looking for something—anything— to knock these women down a few pegs. It’s disgusting

Here’s the scumbag who wrote this ccadelago

Trump connected for 2 hours today! Many say that’s how he won the election...sexist much?

let's just hope she doesn't 'over-prepare' for the debates. chucktodd will rake her over the coals.

Really? So now we have a woman candidate who’s too likable? Just stop it already!!!

get the hell out of here! realDonaldTrump has taught us that ABSOLUTELY NONE OF THIS RIDICULOUS REPORTING MATTERS! KamalaHarris2020

Nope. We're not doing this again.

And if she wasn't connecting with constituents in favor of 37-point detailed flowcharts, you'd run an article about how she's too wonky and not connecting enough. Keep your B.S. horse race machine. America's future is on the line and you're out here writing gossip columns.

Now women are being too likeable? I bet you don't publish this shit about Bernie or other male candidates.

So now connecting with audiences is a bad thing. Is that only when women do it? Or when Democrats do it? Or what exactly?

Omg

'she's over-prepared'

Omg, she’s...NOT out of touch?!

She's weak... She hasn't a snowball's chance in hell!👍

They call that pandering to your base. Career politicians figure that out real quick in the game.

Is that the best hit piece you could come up with?

Just stop . This is BS and we all see what was done here. SMH

Politico wakes up every day, looks itself in the mirror, and says 'today I will be worse than I was yesterday'

Obviously MSM has learned nothing from 2016. When have you covered a man in this way HELLO! Don't make the same error. SoSexist

Oh fuck off with this misogynistic take.

Come on politico - be better.

What now? Who wrote this stupid article. Politico clearly love them some Bernie.

What is WRONG with you Why do you HATE CAPABLE WOMEN so much Deal with your 'mommy issues', will you

Here we go again. American media is owned and operated by sexist republicans. We are doomed

Not to a fault but faulty.Negative anti American values. Bullshit democrat rhetoric and lies Deceit and against BABIES WHO SURVIVED ABORTIONS WANTING THEM TO DIE WHILE A QUALIFIED DOCTOR LETS THEM. American values according to the democrats and harris. This is why 20TRUMP20

Get a grip Politico the world has moved on.

Oh ffs.

Sleeping her way to the top.

I guess the author doesn't realize that Kamala's personality connects and is greatly missed by a nation disgusted by Trump's constant name calling, vain and empty claims of superior knowledge though lacking any. Go Kamala.

Do better asshats!

So, it's a terrible thing for success at retail politics to actually connect with audiences. That's a bad thing. Seriously? Do you clowns ready your own words?

Back. Off.

How is that bad?

GFY

It reminds me of line in my local paper in 2016 when Trump had few concrete proposals: 'Hillary Clinton has many proposals, but can she deliver?' Now Kamala Harris is running to oppose Donald Trump, a man who still has few concrete proposals, and she doesn't have enough details.

Too likable. That’s a new one. Last time the woman was too prepared.

Politico Politically Political 😏

U mean w/ the socialists & the communists!

As someone who made it a priority to lock up black children for non-violent charges resulting in the incarceration of nearly 9000 people, I hope to god she doesn’t connect with any audience.

I’ll take sexism for 50, Alex.

What the fuck is this

She is shady. She is a hypocrite. She runs things into the ground. Her policies ruin cities, why would we let her run a country?

POLITICOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Jeez how much more misogynistic can you get?

Good grief, why is it that women candidates are reported on so differently than men?

Ugh. Not this sexist crap again. Get a new schtick, media. This one's gotten old.

Exactly what I’ve been saying all along. She has zero experience on the rope line. She has literally never had to answer face to face questions. She does not measure up to the job. And she’s childless. You know nothing about the world until you have children. She’s unqualified.

I see. So if she's likable, then she's too likable. A woman can never be enough, eh?

Screw off with this. This is what you said about HRC.

So, she relates well on an emotional level with her audience, has the ability to correct course, but lacks a level of detail in some of her answers. So, still FAR AND AWAY better than what we currently have in the White House. Got it.

Glad she’s not jailing them.

Go to bed. Now!😡🙃

Ugh ugh ugh. Just stop.

stop it.

Oh for cryin' out loud, stop writing this idiocy.

We like her warmth and empathy - but is it too much warmth and empathy? Where's all that policy details Hillary harped on about that we never reported on - we want that now! (From her, not Bernie) Dance ladies dance for us!

Should she dry hump a flag? Do better.

Looking for hate clicks?

This type of article would only ever be written about a woman. Seriously, be better

Clinton's advice to those who talked to her was this: Don't let your message get bogged down in wonky policy debates. March early state rounds you'll get more from Harris I suspect.

Sanders, Inslee, Gabbard, or Yang.

That is a sin? GTH

'Hillary Clinton is OVER prepared'

When a female candidate 'connects with audiences', this is a 'fault'. Just stop, .

Time unfollow

'[insert woman here] is too likable' articles are the natural conclusion of the '[insert woman here] is insufficiently likable' news cycle.

Wake me up when we get to the inevitable article slamming her for being “over prepared”.

How is connecting with audiences and garnering big crowds considered a fault? I don't understand the logic here.

Oh we're doing this again are we?

This article is bad and you should feel bad.

...wat

WTF does that even mean?

Fault? Are you guys serious?

Is she licking them?

I kind of want to read this to know how it could be a problem for a candidate to connect TOO MUCH with audience, but I'm worried it's going to be pretty sexist and don't want to give it hits. Anyone have more information? :)

Fck Politico

Congratulations on really earning this one:

Wut? I don’t think Kirstjen Nielsen connected too much with her

Oh, come on!

I love her!! Kamala Harris 2020!!

Are. You. Serious. Right. Now?

What's her plan to get off fossil fuels and restore the gas balance in the atmosphere? Delay on the climate crisis is as bad as denial.

F off, Politico.

she will say anything on the moment

She is so against America.

Siri: Show me an article that could only be written about a female poltiical candidate

Awww you tried. Kamala2020

Yeah, because she'll agree to any stupid idea just to be liked.

Kamala Harris is an excellent candidate. Politico bros are worried.

Why are you writing this, as if nothing else newsworthy is happening? Sexist

Does she treat her tech gurus in CA the same as she does a rogue in MAine?!?!?

I don’t like the fact that she’s talking a lot of hate. She talks a lot about racism. That’s not a productive way to run a campaign. Talk about care or Love not hate. Bring people together don’t instill negativity to your constituents. Speak about HOW your going to fix things.

She sounds as relatable as Hillary Clinton

Really? That is what you wrote a story about in 2019?

You mean all the time. Just like Hillary, Kamara will promise you the moon and the stars to get elected.

...scale of 1 to 10, how sexist is this going to be?
