37. I've never heard any of his so-called gaffes

and I'm a political junkie. It's a lie invented to make people think that when he tells the truth it's just a gaffe. He's a straight shooter when it comes to telling the truth - an almost impossible feat for politicians so it's easy to create a lie.

I'll vote for whoever gets the nomination. But I think Hillary is as much a lighting rod as Obama is. She always has been. It would be another 4 to 8 years of stagnation and obstruction accompanied with insults and derision and threats of impeachment.

Frankly I'm sick to death of it.
