Nope. n/t rzemanfl Nov 2018 #1

I am sure she is, as are a few others still_one Nov 2018 #2

Will someone not do her a favor & clue her in? She will not get the support. hlthe2b Nov 2018 #6

Then she won't be the nominee. I think there will be plenty of good candidates in the ring still_one Nov 2018 #40

I'd love to support a competent, brilliant, dedicated woman candidate at top of the ticket ... hlthe2b Nov 2018 #3

Exactly my position too. What she did to Al will always follow her. brush Nov 2018 #33

And Bernie Sanders called for him to resign too ... doesn't seem to be following him around here n/t SFnomad Nov 2018 #50

The ringleader. That just sounds so ridiculous and juvenile. MrsCoffee Nov 2018 #94

Oh, please. And you wrote that with a straight face. brush Nov 2018 #95

So what exactly would that say about the gullibility of those you insist just followed the leader? MrsCoffee Nov 2018 #97

So back Klobuchar. She didn't jump in the bandwagon to oust a fellow Dem. brush Nov 2018 #100

Led the charge? Trumpocalypse Nov 2018 #106

She will make a great Presidential candidate. MrsCoffee Nov 2018 #124

I don't have to knock myself out. She knocked herself out with the Franken gambit. brush Nov 2018 #128

She might have lost some DUers with misplaced anger. MrsCoffee Nov 2018 #130

We're lucky all right as we have several good candidates. brush Nov 2018 #132
