broke with convention and endorsed two candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination — Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar., the FX and Hulu series, in a first for the publication. As noted in the episode, for 160 years the endorsement process has taken place in private. But the editorial board opened up their interviews with candidates and some of the deliberations to the show’s cameras.
“But with a crowded field and with traditional polling in tatters, that calculation calls for a hefty dose of humility about anyone’s ability to foretell what voters want.”“In this perilous moment, both the radical and the realist models warrant serious consideration,” the editorial board said. “For this reason, we are breaking with convention, and putting our support behind not one, but two candidates.
For Warren, it was her charisma, albeit some concerns that she comes across as condescending. For Klobuchar, it was her Midwestern pragmatism and a record of reaching independent and even Republican voters, although she also faced questions about the turnover of her Senate staff. “I want to convey to you that I look at the world a little bit differently than you do,” Sanders tells them, suggesting that the way to negotiate with Mitch McConnell is to “make him an offer he can’t refuse.” That is, pointing out that ideas like raising the minimum wage are supported by a majority of voters even in Kentucky.
