Why is it always a male progressive challenging a female centrist? Of all the candidates we have been asked to support since November

Ellison
Jaffe
Eisen
Ossoff
Mello
Quist
Carmona (until the very end)

All men. Do progressives think women can't win since Hillary lost?

The irony is Hillary wasn't a progressive any more then Pelosi. Probably - less...

Oh yes, like Paul Swearingen, who is challenging Josephine Manchin

So you're literally just throwing away his counter argument because it doesn't fit your narrative. That's no better than what Trump supporters who call "fake news" are doing.

In Nov - Pramila Jayapal challenged & won in WA! Lucy Flores challenged & lost the primary! Zephyr Teachout won the primary & lost narrowly to Faso in a tough Republican seat ! Morgan Carroll (CO -Chair), Jane Kleeb (Nebraska Chair) etc won after Nov - And now the CA Chair endorsed of Our-Revolution is also a woman.

Carmona was not endorsed by Our-Revolution. Progressives were totally divided between Wendy Carrillo (a woman) & many other candidates !

BTW Justice Democrats have announced 2 candidates - Both of them are women. Paula & Cory Bush - A pastor & registered nurse treated mentally ill who has won awards for her work/activism !

This narrative of male "progressive" is similar to the Bernie-bro & Obama boys narrative. This is just picking & choosing 1 set of candidates to paint a narrative !
