I was going to post something nice about Hillary's performance tonight....

....then she made the most absurd, ridiculous, audacious blatant pandering comment in response to the final softball question of the night.

I'm back to how I started the day, the Clinton CAMPAIGN strategy is disgusting. Completely disgusting.

She's not my candidate but she did a good job making her argument.

I don't know if she really believes what she said, but she made it work.

I had to turn it off after a while. Her ego is as bloated as Trumps!

Yes, she uses first person plural references less often than Sanders. That's telling a story.

But she has audiences in NV and SC and the superTuesday states. Did she say things she thought would appeal to those audiences? Yes.

he grabs the narrative and takes a 180 with it. Bernie v Trump debate would be hilarious.
