Tom Carper’s defense against all of his bad votes is that he was misled and fooled by his Republican friends. How the hell is that a defense?
Harris and Carper each want to protect the women’s right to choose.
“Women should have some freedom and some choices to make, under the law they do, it’s been that way for years and it should continue to be that way,” said Carper.
Harris didn’t agree with Carper’s use of the word some.
“I don’t want some freedoms, I want all of my freedoms,” said Harris.
She also didn’t agree with Carper saying Roe v. Wade is settled law especially with the debate over Kavanaugh.
“We know that the law that we’re told is settled, can be overturned,” said Harris. “So, it’s easy again to say that there are protections, but here is again why I’m saying we need diversity because as women we understand there aren’t enough women there (Congress) fighting for us.” – WDEL
Harris told the audience of about 700 that her lack of “experience” is her strength.
“The problem is we need diversity in experience,” said Harris, who criticized Carper for voting to confirm Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh to a federal appeals court in 2006.
“If everyone is viewing the world through the same lens, you get people like Kavanaugh because you spoke to people in your network and they told you he’s a good guy.” – The News Journal
