Reply #11: Which two on MTP defended them?

[Ice-9]

I'm listening to MTP as I'm typing this (on tivo, since I didn't wake up until 12 p.m.!), and I don't really hear any of them defending her comments. They all seem to agree that the intended meaning of what Senator Clinton said was simply that primary contests have frequently gone to June. But that's not much of a defense given that (1) the statement "primary contests have frequently gone to June" is disingenuous as a historical matter; and (2) whatever Clinton meant, her choice of words was terrible and reflected a political naivety that is simply astounding for someone who claims to be the more seasoned and experienced candidate. So nothing I'm hearing on MTP really qualifies as a "defense" of what Clinton said.
