"SNIP.............


Earlier today,, Boxer joined CNN's Kate Bolduan and told her that she spoke to Bernie Sanders on the phone to discuss what happened at the event. Even though she's a Clinton supporter, Boxer said her relationship with Bernie has always been very good.

Boxer said, "He did phone me back last night and he was very distressed about it. It was a very warm conversation, and I told him, he expressed shock that his people would do it. I did tell him the vast majority of those Bernie supporters were sitting in their chairs, they were fine, But there was this group of 50-100 people, they were not young people, they were older people and he ought to check out and see, who these people are, and he said he would."

She continued, "In my mind when he says he does not support any type of violence, I believe him. And he's got to make sure it doesn't happen. People will follow his lead."

1. Why is it that Nina Turner spoke after Boxer and

got a standing ovation from both sides?

I guess that's the difference of speaking to people as a group versus dividing the people into two different groups.

5. I don't know why, but

The OT wasn't talking about Nina Turner, so your post is a complete non sequitur.

I think Barbara Boxer was very gracious, considering she got called a bitch by at least one Sanders supporter. And you can talk about "dividing"? Grow up.

6. They teach courses in derailing at Trump University. nt

2. those are responsible leaders

...who followers should try and emulate.

3. seems to be perfectly reasonable comments

must be hard for her to be so positive with all the tire tracks all over her body and soul from DU OPs.

4. Senator Boxer is a great senator and what was done to her was disgraceful.

[Waiting For Everyman]

7. She's trying to walk it back because she was dead wrong.

People like Nina Turner and Erin Bilbray were there and told what really happened.

I don't respect people who pull stunts like that to smear people who they know full well are the ones really being run over. Barbie is done in my book. I'm glad she's leaving the Senate, and I have no doubt that she'll be hooked up with some overpaid lobbyesque gravy train position next.
