As the Democratic junior senator from New York babbled on in an Iowa City restaurant about "the bold ideas that the base and the grassroots care about," those were the words of a female college student conducting a Bible study upstairs as she squeezed past Gillibrand looking for something more tethered to the real world: her preferred condiment.
A less frivolous soundbite came from Gillibrand herself, in the last debate, conducted by CNN at the end of July.
Gillibrand has triangulated herself with a shamelessness that would bring a sly smile to the lips of her onetime friend Bill Clinton.
Gillibrand was a Democratic congresswoman representing a Republican district in Dutchess County in upstate New York, and actually boasted a 100% National Rifle Association rating.
After a failed presidential campaign that didn't burn any bridges, Gillibrand the shape-shifter can become "any woman you've ever imagined" - whatever is needed in a 2020 running mate.
If "moderate" Biden is nominated, Gillibrand can balance the ticket by being the rabid feminist who talks down to white suburban women who voted for Trump.
