Exchange of the Day


April 24, 2018 at 8:39 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Emily’s List President Stephanie Schriock spoke to CNBC‘s John Harwood:

HARWOOD: What do you advise people as a matter of strategy to do about situations like Conor Lamb found himself in when he was running? You want a Democratic majority. He’s trying to win a very Trumpy district. And he says in the campaign, “I don’t support Pelosi for speaker.” How do you feel about that and what do you advise women candidates in more conservative districts to say to that question?

SCHRIOCK: We need to win. So if you feel like you’re in a district that you need other make those types of positions, you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do to win.

HARWOOD: You don’t care?

SCHRIOCK: We just have to win. We have to take back the majority, and that’s really critically important.

I saw Kacie dc give Arizona Democratic candidate for senate basically two questions:

How much do you hate Nancy Pelosi?

How much do you love abortions?

This was an important interview for a first time candidate. She handled kacie’s weak questions well, but kacie seemed really smug and dismissive of a quite strong contender for an important position.

Not sure if agenda driven or just weak interview skills. It came off as a bit of ambush to me.
