I think she shook it off long ago. I loved that she said "They've called be everything but they've never called me a quitter." She doesn't have to shake anything off because it never sticks to begin with. It's the thing I love about her most.

"Toxic fumes from the Teflon chemical released from pots and pans at high temperatures may kill pet birds and cause people to develop flu-like symptoms (called "Teflon Flu" or, as scientists describe it, "Polymer fume fever&quot ."

If she is really guilty of every crazy thing that the Right (and, more recently, the Left) have thrown at her all these years, why is she not in jail?

And it's quite clear to me that people will say just about anything to take them down. He was one of the most popular Democratic presidents and the Republicans would have said anything. That Bernie fans today are willing to believe it is what is most disappointing to me.

I would vote for either candidate as the nominee, but I like her a heck of a lot more than I like him.

I've certainly done a lot of reading here and people in both Bernie and Hillary camps do rather go on about things being unfairly alerted. I really didn't what I said warranted any action but clearly I don't make the rules.

But hate takes a harder toll on the hater then on the object of the hate. It eats them up physically and mentally.

I've noticed that most of Bernie's supporters spend much more time concentrating on Hillary's negatives, whether true or not, than they spend highlighting Bernie's positives. Some of them sound as hate filled as anyone on the right.
