This stupid PUMA narrative will not die, even though it’s a classic example of a smoke-and-mirrors media-created narrative. (Cue self-proclaimed PUMAs in the comments.) Look, PUMAs—-I suspect many of you have ties to the McCain campaign, and there’s a handful of you who are true believers, but let’s be serious. The number of real PUMAs out there is statistically insignificant. As Dana Goldstein notes, finding the feminist leadership that lays any kind of claim to PUMA-dom is a weak exercise in puffing up some people to be what they’re not and focusing on people down the food chain instead of looking at the more important leadership.
