176. Did I disparage you? Or Elizabeth Warren?

I'm disappointed that Warren has remained passive in not announcing her endorsement for anyone, but not surprised. She used to be republican, so she is probably pretty conservative in a lot of ways. She may actually favor Hillary, but I don't know. The people who are attacking her now are foolish and mean spirited, but it's because they are afraid.

There are good conservatives out there.

Everyone of us who gets in these fights and attacks members of the other side (or throws them under the bus) is part of the problem.

If you respectfully want to vote for Hillary, that is your choice and I'm not going to attack you for it. If someone tells lies about Bernie, I will call them on it.

I will talk about Hillary and what I like or don't like about her, and why I won't vote for her. Until the primary is over.
