Although I am a Bernie fan, it is very comforting to know that if he loses to Hilary, our country would still be in very good hands.

for their lying deceitful ways in trying to eliminate SS, MC, ACA. The Democratic Party Convention should be great for clarifying the issues and staking positions. Just what the GOP tries to prevent. In addition to what HRC mentioned in this clip, we need to hear DEM candidates' positions on Glass-Steagall, Frank-Dodd, Keystone Pipeline, taxing corporations for relocating business to foreign countries, taxing US corporation profits held in foreign countries, taxing personal wealth hidden in foreign banks to evade taxes, taxing excessive compensations, denying work visas for foreign workers to replace US workers. My apologies to Clintonites if she has already made clear statements and I missed them.

I guess they can't correlate a speech by Hillary in Florida with an attack on the ex-governor of Florida?

Florida is a 2016 battleground state - I remember all those disenfranchised voters in Florida when Bush 3.0 was governor - Hillary just dropped a little reminder!

....of how she did.

Poor Jeb was probably in the wings frantically trying to figure a way to counter it.

Yes it does matter what they do in office. Hillary supports TPP and XL Keystone Pipeline. And she supported Iraq war.

They are both a 1,000,000x better than all of the Repugs put together.

She's better than any one of the Republithugs who are trying to undermine our democracy, and undermine the right to vote. When she mentioned the Republicans' persistent efforts to undermine the right to vote, she really nailed it - and reminded the voters, especially the democratic voters in Florida, about Jeb's sordid past.
