critical swing state Hillary lost by less than 1%, while in those same critical swing states Jill Stein received 1% of the vote

As for blame, you are damn right I blame those voters. They helped propel trump into the WH

Hillary wasn’t inspiring? With the help of all the lies and misinformation from the press and the likes of David Sirota, Nina Turner, Brianna Joy West, Cornell West, who not only publicly declared they
would not vote for Hillary, but encouraged others to do likewise

The voters who didn’t vote for Hillary, by either not voting or voting third party, I sure as hell blame them for helping put a racist, bigot, and sexist in the WH, and they got just what they deserved. Unfortunately, MOST Americans didn’t deserve it, and those Americans voted for Hillary

She brought this criticism on herself by not doing the right thing ecstatic Apr 2023 #70

she never said it was about her bigtree Apr 2023 #10

Working from home means she can't vote. That's the issue! NoRethugFriends Apr 2023 #14

There are no pressing votes FBaggins Apr 2023 #17

what votes did she miss bigtree Apr 2023 #23

"Of the 58 votes Feinstein has missed while ill, 25 were for judicial nominees..." SunSeeker Apr 2023 #50

you don't know who the nominees are bigtree Apr 2023 #65

There have beeen 25 judiciary committee votes during her absence. Ms. Toad Apr 2023 #72

how is so pressing when there are still nominees waiting for votes from the full Senate? bigtree Apr 2023 #73

You do understand that one process follows the other, right? Ms. Toad Apr 2023 #74

It doesn't really work that way FBaggins Apr 2023 #83

You are addressing the opposite problem. Ms. Toad Apr 2023 #87

Not at all - the goal is to get good judges onto the bench FBaggins Apr 2023 #91

Thank-you. In addition, she will be back soon. She has also instructed Schumer is she is needed on JohnSJ Apr 2023 #21

There will be no temporary replacement Fiendish Thingy Apr 2023 #36

Well said, and I feel the same way. Just A Box Of Rain Apr 2023 #63

Have to agree malaise Apr 2023 #29

How about Biden is appointing judges faster than anyone GuppyGal Apr 2023 #32

Good. And that needs to keep up, or even increase. NOT come to a standstill. FoxNewsSucks Apr 2023 #48

Then shouldn't pressure be put on Schumer to bring the 18 pending nominations to the floor? onenote Apr 2023 #57

Or the president to nominate more replacements? FBaggins Apr 2023 #61

Whether she resigns or just leaves the judiciary committee, we're still screwed Fiendish Thingy Apr 2023 #34

She lost my respect when she hugged Lindsey Graham vapor2 Apr 2023 #37

Same here. And said he did a "masterful job" on that hearing while hugging him. FoxNewsSucks Apr 2023 #49

At least you're being honest about why you want her gone. onenote Apr 2023 #62
