10. "We need to name names." That's chilling until you remember that they are pretty pathetic.

Do they really imagine saying Hillary Clinton's name is some sort of brave masterstroke? Or do they realize that, rightly or wrongly, Hillary Clinton is the most vilified woman in American Politics? If attacking Hillary Clinton carried any sort of risk how many people would be suffering from having done it - all Republicans and many, many Democrats.

Heck, I'd be suffering it (as I regularly describe Clinton as a corporatist middle-of-the-roader).
