Hillary Clinton started out tonights Democratic debate in Flint by announcing for the first time that she believes Michigan Governor Rick Snyder should resign or be recalled. But a Clinton campaign spokesman was saying something a bit different literally an hour earlier on CNN.
Brian Fallon spoke with Wolf Blitzer a little after 7 pm tonight. Blitzer brought up how, while Sanders had been calling for Snyder to resign, Clinton had not yet. Heres how Fallon answered:
I think that, in a nutshell, shows the difference in their two approaches.

At tonights debate, Clinton called on Snyder to resign:

(1,021 posts)I wasn't sure we'd achieve it, but we have. She is now in full chameleon mode, and can actually effortlessly flip-flop within a single hour of a single day. To people who say Hillary's not talented, I think this is clear evidence of the opposite.
