"I've known Hillary Clinton for 25 years. I like Hillary Clinton and respect Hillary Clinton."

"Hillary Clinton has devoted her life to public service."

What a TOOL! Who in their right mind likes and respects her? Only a corporatist neocon would feel this way about someone as despicable as Hillary.

Whoever said this sure has drunk the Kool-Aid.

Ok . . .

He closed by intimating that she is part of the "establishment" government "of the few." Gee, what government was HE in the last 30 years?

I disagree with her outlook on a lot of things, but I like her. Hell, I think John Boehner seems like a good dude. I don't agree with him over practically anything, but he seems like someone I could get along with.

It told undecided voters (assuming there are some) that it is fine to like and respect Hillary Clinton and still caucus for Bernie Sanders.


He was dead on with that one.
