The Childless Cat Lady Speaks
-
We should remember- we’re so online that it’s easy to think that everyone knows about Vance denigrating and scapegoating ‘Childless Cat Ladies’.
But her signing her post that way probably means millions of women will read about Vance’s comments that otherwise wouldn’t have done so. And who knows, maybe a few of them have cats.

I'm not in favor of any entertainer making public political endorsements. You tend to piss off part of your paying customers.

Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

So it adds more validity to Vance’s statement. Do you want Taylor Swift setting public policy?

I imagine she won’t be taking her cat to her show in Springfield…

That’s the thing. Millions will hear about that wouldn’t have otherwise. It’s like when a rich philanthropist matches donations 3-1. Swift tripled Vance’s gift to the Harris campaign.

I imagine Ted Nugent's record sales have plummeted by single digits.

I listened to Vance after the debate - and I thought he was more articulate than either of the Presidential candidates. I'm sure if he could get a "do over" he'd drop the whole cat lady thing - as Hillary probably wishes she never used "deplorables" . One can't always predict when a slightly thoughtless word or phrase virtually erases the value of everything else that was said.

I’m not how thoughtless the comments were, in the sense that they both sincerely believed in what they were saying.
Or maybe the thoughtless part was saying it out loud.

If anything, this campaign propels Vance into that national spotlight. I think he's going to do well in his VP debate.
I hope people look at his entire cat lady comment and consider what he's actually talking about.
Question: Does the Biden meltdown make the American public look harder at the VP candidate?

I agree. I doubt that Taylor Swift (of Ted Negent) knows more about politics than I do. So, why should I listen or care who they endorse.
But, assuming that half of her followers in Instagram are from the US, and if only 2% of those vote for VP Harris that would not have voted, that is 2.5MM people. So, I think it will move the numbers in VP Harris's favor.

@jon-nyc , I think you’re looking at Vance’s statement through partisan eyes. Probably I am too. If you’re looking for reasons to dislike the candidate, you can definitely see something in that statement to point to and yell “misogynist!” Great. 45–47% of the people agree with you. But they would have, anyway. Another 45-47% think that you and Taylor are being ridiculous. Okay.
It still ultimately comes down to that 6-10% that are either truly undecided or are like me, trying to decide if they are going to participate in this election at all. I don’t think that group is really going to give a rats ass about the statement. The childless cat ladies were already voting for Kamala with or without Vance’s help. That 6-10% are likely to probably agree with the sentiment that they prefer candidates with children. They do think it’s ridiculous that non-parents elevate their pets to a similar level as children, and they think that having Children can help keep you a little more focused on the future.

I think more of the low-information, low-propensity voter who knew nothing about Vance and are now given a good reason to dislike the guy.

But that’s exactly who I’m referring to, too. The low propensity voter doesn’t like childless cat ladies, either.
