6. And one can draw contrast without it becoming a blood sport, no? ...

I get that Hillary supporters don't want the differences in policy pointed out

First, I am NOT a HRC supporter ... a call for comity is not a support indicator. Secondly, I have not said anything about NOT pointing out differences ... those are just the voice in your head.

After Hillary went after Obama with a "everything but the kitchen sink" line of attack in the 2008 primary, I assure you she's not a delicate snowflake.

And the result was a number of HRC supporters, NOT voting for Candidate Obama in the general ... fortunately, not enough to affect the general election out come; but, it was/is troublesome, none-the-less.

It amazes me that people are approaching these primaries with a ferocity that, not even their favored candidate, possesses.
