"You're a lying, dog-faced pony soldier."

Joe. Joe. You shouldn’t say things like that. We may have to all line up behind you in November, and you are making that task more difficult by the day. Sigh.

If he is the nominee it won't be hard to line up behind him unless he is found to be a serial killer. Even then, well

5. It was an unforced error. Unfortunate. Won't keep me from lining up if the's the nominee.

But he does do these unforced errors and I wish he wouldn't.

6. He has used this line before. Was joking. Mocking himself not her. From a Western movie.

She said she’d be asking a “mean question,” so he, clearly joking, gave the line. In serious mode he said it was not a mean question, but an honest one.

PS The audience laughed at the Gabby Hayes type movie joke,
