A Saint Huerta would have found common ground and resolved the situation rationally.

A Saint Huerta would have never tweeted what seems to be a lie.

But Dolores Huerta is just a fine woman who made a mistake.

To many there she was just another Clinton supporter - not a saint or a god or just a fine lady - what people saw was a Clinton supporter - serving as an "unbiased speaker"

nothing evil - nothing personal - simple balance was asked for

The issue would have ended there if a terrible thing did not follow

She tweeted a lie and has now taken it back
A fine lady would take the next step and work to resolve this situation well.

I don't understand why representatives from both sides didn't press forward to gain a mutually beneficial decision.

Would the moderator have persisted in the face of democratic pressure from both sides to do the right thing?

To revert to an old complaint once popular on these boards, where were the adults in that room?
