"Diane : "Unhelpful baggage". It's funny that we say that about every highly qualified Democratic candidate that the right destroys politically. They turned a boy scout into the worlds greatest liar, a war hero into a coward and a traitor, and a highly qualified woman into an incompetent buffoon. And every time we blame the victim instead of focusing our energy on stopping them the next time."

Every single word of that.
