31. Being able to post anonymously here brings out the two year olds in some of us.

Myself, I think there are too many two year olds here who somehow mindlessly think tearing down one candidate raises another. IMHO, those who do it are fucking idiots who only want to disrupt.

* Bernie's hair??
* Hillary being a former Goldwater supporter?

Those are childish junior high debating tactics.

If one has to go negative, ones candidate apparently has nothing to offer.

I appalled at the two year old behavior here, especially so many months before anything matters.

It is disgusting.
