[Zolorp]

This disgusts me to no end.

WTF is she doing in the Democratic Party if she is this much of a bigot?

1. hateful horrible woman. Send her over to the Republicans. Mayor Pete is a wonderful man!!

2. There are a lot of people in this country who have fucking idea what they're doing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. We have a big tent--but there are limits. And she's outside those limits! n/t

[Cha]

4. :(

5. I want my vote for Hillary back after finding out she's a woman

People go to caucus without knowing anything about the candidates? Damn. I guess persuading these people on the fly is part of the Iowa caucus tradition.

6. Damn! I thought it might be the onion

☹️

35. LOL! You got to know when to hold'em! nt

[IcyPeas]

8. another uninformed voter

you would assume that these people who enter these caucuses would be knowledgeable and have at least basic knowledge of each candidate.

watching jeopardy last night..... picture of Jake Tapper and none of them knew who he was.... few weeks ago no one could identify Adam Schiff.

not everyone is as informed as they think they are.

9. that girl was so much better at handling the conversation than I would have been

I would have went off.

[LonePirate]

10. That caucus chairwoman/leader is a far better person than I am. I would have told the bigot to leave

[redqueen]

17. That's the precinct captain - she's trying to keep the vote.

I get what you're saying, but her first priority is to try to convince the woman to keep her vote with Pete.

11. Also was hoping it was the Onion :(

[bluewater]

13. me too.

[denem]

18. And me :(

[wyldwolf]

12. "I though y'all were saying he's really happy!"

[denem]

21. When you're with the Flintstones ...

14. We didn't think there would be at least one bigot to be found in Iowa? Actually, she s probably not

the only one. I would bet other misogynists, racists, anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic people can be found and exist in the Democratic Party throughput the nation.

Why she is not embarrassed to admit she’s an ignorant slob tells me she knows some other Dem Iowans like herself.

I am not surprised. Every state will have some folks like this. Not insurmountable and does not take away from Pete’s win.

He will still have a hard time getting the AA electorate on his side and that is about him, his past decisions, his campaign’s mistakes, not his sexual orientation.

15. Hmmmm. Looks like her sweatshirt is probably a cotton blend.

Pretty sure it says in the bible not to mix materials. I’m guessing she’s wearing pants. Says in that same bible that a woman shouldn’t wear men’s garment. And her hair, which is called a woman’s crowning glory in said bible, is chopped short. Doesn’t look like she follows what her bible says, either. She sure does pick some cherries, though, doesn’t she.

30. 😃

I couldn't help but think of the West Wing episode that addressed this ...got to rewatch it and commit it to memory

[Baitball Blogger]

16. What. An. Idiot.

[BeyondGeography]

19. That's a gut punch

The precinct captain, otoh, is nothing short of heroic. My goodness.

[sheshe2]

20. Disgusting woman. nt

[HarlanPepper]

22. GOP interloper.

I can smell it from here.

[bdjhawk]

27. I agree!

No way a true Pete caucus voter didn’t know he was gay.

[samir.g]

23. Kick her out!

Of the caucus and the party.

[texasfiddler]

24. Why do you think Iowa voted for Trump?

I’m not dissing Iowa. I’m from Texas and we have plenty of these type of voters

[SMC22307]

28. Iowa voted for Obama twice.

But for whatever the reasons, the state went with Drumpf over Hillary. What types of voters are those?

[Yurovsky]

31. You can't lump them all together...

Plenty of wonderful, amazing, kind, and inherently good people in Iowa. We need every vote we can get come November. No sense writing anyone off this early.

[SMC22307]

38. I'm not writing anyone off. Quite frankly, this entire campaigning process is ridiculous...

and needs to end sooner rather than later. Some are trying to suggest the state is full of racist homophobes and I reject that. Iowa was the fourth state in the U.S. to legalize same-sex marriage, if I'm not mistaken. I'd love for Buttigieg to win.

[rickford66]

25. Must have been under a nice size rock.

[rzemanfl]

26. Yep. Nothing like an informed electorate. n/t

[dustyscamp]

29. She probably only voted for him because of his looks

Now that she found out he is gay it killed her fantasy

[Butterflylady]

32. This is just a miniscule of what will

Happen in the GE. Hasn't anybody thought of that?

[Quackers]

34. Meaning? nt

[Quixote1818]

33. What the fuck is she doing in the Democratic Party? She can just leave! nt

[keithbvadu2]

36. She knew so little about him?

She knew so little about him?

It has not been a secret.

She must be voting on his looks or whatever.

[42bambi]

37. We do NOT need people like her in our party!

[not_the_one]

39. I would say she is a plant, with an agenda.

NO ONE doesn't know that Pete is gay. Jesus. Fucking. Christ. THAT is the first thing that was said about him when he threw his hat into the race. No. I don't accept her "ignorance".

And if she is a REAL Democrat, she would never have that attitude. A homophobic bigot is the essence of being Republican.

I must say, as an atheist, I do hope that Pete gets ALL of the REAL CHRISTIAN vote. I can accept THAT help.

Now we just have to get the REAL CHRISTIANS to step up to the plate and be counted.
