54. What is amazing to me is that anyone sees Amy Klobuchar

Feb 2019

as a threat to their own candidacy or to the candidacy of someone they support.

I never doubted for a minute that she has current and former staffers who hold her in high regard. I'm glad they're speaking out, but I wonder who is spreading the dirt and why. That's what I want to know, because I will be sure not to give them the time of day during the primary races.

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