13435979, It's a sexist outlook but it's one NY hasn't been able to shake

Since we're behind other cities in electing a female mayor.

I actually don't view Wiley as a policy wonk similar to Warren (although her early Adams takedown in debate 1 reminded me of Warren's takedown of Bloomberg) She actually lacked a lot of real policy details on her website and in her speeches. She came across idealistic to a lot of middle of the road dems.

I do agree Adams is more of a knockaround guy and did as borough president in Brooklyn rub shoulders with EVERYBODY. Wiley is no rookie to politics but I agree there's something lacking in her connection to regular people.
