61. Me what?

Are you denying the fact that Trump's 'Pocahontas' remarks set her on her heels for quite some time? She's lucky it didn't come later during the debates and her campaigning. And your "whole damn lot of experience" runs quite hollow seeing as she hasn't been tested by anyone or anything to this point. She's been smart and evaded any of the sniping other candidates have engaged in. Things have run very smoothly for her thus far, and I'm not saying she hasn't run a great campaign so far. I'm worried about what happens when the GOP lowers the boom, and they will. It's coming, so she and her supporters better steel themselves for the inevitable. Then we'll see what she's made of. Hopefully she'll surprise me and be a steely-eyed presidential candidate!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

It would, when she's old enough nt Fiendish Thingy Sep 2019 #34
