The right hates Hillary. The fringe left hates Hillary... SidDithers Apr 2015 #7

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't one supporting and organizing... DemocratSinceBirth Apr 2015 #23

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

�. Luminous Animal Apr 2015 #47

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

When... Luminous Animal Apr 2015 #73

Where are you getting these assertions? MADem Apr 2015 #71
