Reply to comment by 14FunctionImp in Mayoral candidate Helen Gym and ex-Mayor Michael Nutter clashed during a live event: ‘We are just in total disagreement’ by thefirststoryteller

I didn't see it and can believe he was easy on her but I suspect it was just a boring conversation because she's an accountant focused on boring details.

While I think that's something we need in city hall, it unfortunately doesn't grab headlines which are needed to win elections.

I mean, all of the interviews including that one are available online. Ignorance isn't really an excuse here.

​

I was there. He asked one remotely tough question of Rhynhart, which was more sexist than anything else, about what she would say to people who think she isn't tough enough. I thought it was offensive and sexist, but she reacted like she expected it, to the point that my friend suggested that they had agreed on it ahead of time. The rest was all softballs.

He was clearly more aggressive with Domb, trying to reign him in and cut him off. Then last night was next level as he really got under Parker's skin, digging into the residency requirement stuff, and then everything that happened with Gym.

I'm not claiming to watch every video. Explicitly stated as such and even said I believe he was easy on her.

Are you suggesting people need to watch every video to comment?

How can you take issue with a characterization of an interview if you don't watch the interview? That seems basic.

I wasn't taking issue with it. I was simply responding to a comment that was directed at me using the information I had available.

I qualified my statement by saying I didn't watch it. And I wasn't using my lack of watching it as an "excuse" in any way.

Not sure what your problem is but I've said all that I have to say on the issue. Enjoy your day

We are literally talking about the rhynhart interview, not Gym.

It will be up shortly, I'm sure. It sometimes takes them a day or two. I see the Parker video was recently uploaded.

You said "all of the videos are there" and called the person asking about it ignorant for not bothering to look. So, not wanting to be an ignoramus, I looked. You don't need to be hostile to everyone.

It's fine if these things take time.
