Has Loretta Sanchez always been this eccentric? First the bizarre, racist Native American war cry, now this? Is she trying to lose?

How is that trying to lose? If I wasn't already on the Loretta Bus, I'd sure as heck be hopping on now.

I don't think this is an attempt to pander to the youth. Sanchez is quite nuts.

Put Loretta Sanchez in the White House. A very high energy candidate indeed.

The dog whistle racism against Loretta Sanchez has been very strong, and I don't intend to let anyone get away with using this abstract thing as a reason to attack her.

In case you're wondering, IIRC, many major endorsers of Kamala Harris have said something along the lines of Loretta Sanchez needing to "keep in her place". One said something about that like "keep her in her House keeping duties." Then everyone attacked her because she said something awkward to a very awkward question.

Nit picking a female Hispanic who happens to be somewhat moderate?

I'm not sure if this is racism, but this is an extremely ridiculous criticism. It's definitely implying we should question Loretta Sanchez's seriousness. I'm shocked that the Democratic Party or any Democrat would dare question the seriousness of a loyal Democrat who has a sister also serving in the House. Between them, they will have served a combined thirty-four years in the House as of January 3, 2017(twenty years after Loretta Sanchez was first sworn in).

If this isn't racism, this is idiocy.

I thought it was sort of funny. I think it is more likely she lost a bet with a young staffer or something than an actual appeal for votes.

You know your stories about politicians?

Loretta Sanchez was elected in the same year as Governor Asa Hutchinson, and she had an office down the street from him. Two family members who worked on his staff for his first year or two said she kind of had a crush on him.

If Hillary did it she would've been slaughtered on social media for it.

It's shocking that someone could kind of have a crush, right? Nice, accepting, non-judgmental Democrats.

She did a cringey dab in the middle a Senatorial debate. Like what the hell.

This is too funny.

I thought "dabbing" meant free-style rapping.  Thank god that isn't true.

Loretta Sanchez is a racist herself. It's a bit bizarre to accuse her critics of racism purely for criticizing her.

Yea, no, there's no racism against Sanchez. She's just weird and a bit off. And I say this as a supporter of hers (well, as someone who supports her in spite of Harris).
