desperately trying to keep the taint of the mud she's throwing off her crinolines.

That repeating theater doesn't do her Iron Lady commander-in-chief/foreign policy master images much good.

I can just see her arguing with Putin...please, don't cut off natural gas to western Europe, you know I'm not a natural politician.

And she's a flat out liar. I challenge any HRC supporter to justify her trying to tie Sanders to the Koch brothers last night. Hillary, the fan of fracking, trying imply a cozy relationship between Sanders and the Koch brothers? Really? That just shows you how dumb she must think the voters are, which angers me even more. And I'm supposed to overlook these things and vote for her if she wins the nomination???

That loved his friend.
And that they know that gave me public leave to speak of him
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth, action, nor utterance
Nor the power of speech to stir men's blood
I merely speak right on, and tell you that which all of you do know
Show you sweet Caesar's wounds, those poor, poor dumb mouths
And bid them speak for me
But were I Brutus, and Brutus Antony
There were an Antony would ruffle up your spirits
And put a tongue in every wound of Caesar
That should move the stones of Rome to rise and mutiny!

(From memory, so probably a bit off.
