to yell 'leave my candidate alone'. Democrats at least should know better than to continue this 'women are so weak' nonsense.

I saw no 'hair' posts, I've seen DOZENS addressing her positions on important issues, such her foreign policies, ties to Wall St, see all the money she is getting, another thing that stinks, the obscene amount of money going to a few candidates.

And right in the middle of a discussion about where she stands on the TPP, still unclear, we get a 'that's sexism' post. What?? We want to know where a politician stands on an important issue, and it's sexism? Ridiculous nonsense.

Democrats should refuse that money, make it a huge issue in this campaign, use it to attack Koch Funded Republicans at every opportunity.

At least one Dem has done so. Now let's level the playing field at least in our party, and SHAME the other side for taking those Corporate bribes.

Amazing. Victimhood, it is an excuse to distract when legitimate questions on policies cannot be sabrina 1 Apr 2015 #81

But, it's not amazing, it's DU-speak, totally normal, absolutely accepted, language at this forum. Major Hogwash Apr 2015 #82

It's not accepted, I can assure of that. Don't take people ignoring that nonsense as a sign that sabrina 1 Apr 2015 #83

Yes, precisely. Though I don't hold anything against either politician. MADem Apr 2015 #30

Warren was registered as an independent until 1991. That was the year she registered as Luminous Animal Apr 2015 #31

That's not what she said. But hey, keep telling yourself that it was "just" five years. nt MADem Apr 2015 #44

She also says "I was a Republican" over and over again. Check your context of those words. MADem Apr 2015 #59

Hmm. hmm. So, what was she before she registered as a Republican in 1991? Luminous Animal Apr 2015 #63

Uh, she was living in PA during those years. Before that, she lived in TX and NJ. MADem Apr 2015 #68
