This is not a sweeping win for Hillary. Baitball Blogger May 2016 #10

It doesn't need to be a sweeping win. The process was fair. randome May 2016 #12

It wasn't a fair process, and organized chaos is not acceptable for a Baitball Blogger May 2016 #15

I don't see hypocrisy when there are 50 different intepretations of what 'fair' is. randome May 2016 #21

What "fair" is? What "is" is? These are the real questions! Scuba May 2016 #23

I think the rest of the countries are aware that we are preaching 21st Century Baitball Blogger May 2016 #24

Except voters am I right those you can taunt and scream at! Silver_Witch May 2016 #27

On what planet is a Senator a low level functionary? IdaBriggs May 2016 #4

Hillary already has a well earned reputation for warmonger, so IdaBriggs May 2016 #9

You know whose feathers would be ruffled if Hillary were to snub Kissinger... Fumesucker May 2016 #20

She vacations with the man for Pete's sake. They are FRIENDS! Silver_Witch May 2016 #29

Define 'friend', then. It's political-speak for acknowledging Kissinger's past influence. randome May 2016 #32

She. Vacations. With. Him. frylock May 2016 #36

You have no idea what that even means. randome May 2016 #40

Politicians always say kind things about previous politicians. randome May 2016 #30

Does Obama vacation with Putin every winter? frylock May 2016 #37

Since they bought everything and can finally stop pretending they give two shits onecaliberal May 2016 #28

Finally, an answer that makes sense. Scuba May 2016 #31

Sad! onecaliberal May 2016 #34

I think Boxer was just pointing but Clinton/Kissinger pictures makes me think "Love is in the Air".. Skwmom May 2016 #38
