insulting candidates will somehow change the minds of of people who have chosen their candidate. You can agree and disagree about policy issues, but it is getting tiresome hearing the constant snide comments about someone's preferred candidate. I have heard it since the beginning of this primary, and it is getting really old. I am afraid the infighting will turn people off of the party completely, which would be devastating. We need to vote Blue. But please can we give the snide comments and inuendos a break.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
