So Democrats are fallible? AgingAmerican Feb 2016 #7

Do you have a relevant point to make? Cary Feb 2016 #8

Yes, and that point is: AgingAmerican Feb 2016 #29

So you advocate a scorched earth approach to the Democratic nomination Cary Feb 2016 #32

So any critique whatsoever is scorched earth? AgingAmerican Feb 2016 #37

As I said below I can draw the line between character assissination and constructive debate Cary Feb 2016 #43

lol@ "Constructive debate" AgingAmerican Feb 2016 #46

Not surprised that you take that as a joke. Cary Feb 2016 #64

That's a hit? LOL! If that is too nasty for Hillary than she has no business running for President. jillan Feb 2016 #10

Great point!!! Cary Feb 2016 #15

The point is SO WHAT if someone questioned her. It's not a hit, it's a question. jillan Feb 2016 #27

He didn't "question" her, he made a flat out statement statement CajunBlazer Feb 2016 #33

Why are those who attack Sanders the most, also the most thin skinned AgingAmerican Feb 2016 #38

Why is it that such a nice guy like Sanders has attracted so many people... CajunBlazer Feb 2016 #48
