All supporters of all Democratic primary candidates should feel comfortable here

122. Criticizing policy decisions is not bashing or attacking. People will just have to get used to the

fact that when someone chooses, no one forces anyone, to run for high office in this country voters are going to look at their RECORDS because that is the only way they can decide if a candidate is qualified for that office.

If anyone thinks they can protect their favorite candidate from scrutiny on their policies, they shouldn't be supporting that candidate. Because if it is hard to defend someone on their policies, that is a clue that maybe it's the wrong candidate.

I did that for several years, it was stressful and difficult to defend the Clintons as fiercely as I did and sometimes I just could not win against some of the FACTS people were presenting, though I definitely tried.

Then when I saw the Clintons in such cozy relationships with the very people whose supporters we had all battled on their behalf, I learned a very important lesson. Should have known better at the time, but I am a Dem after all and was fairly blinded by loyalty to my party.

Now I want Dems who can easily be defended because their records are so good, all I have to do is state the facts and not try to 'explain' why s/he voted over and over again, or took positions against the very principles Dems claim to support.
