The word sounds so much more minor than earthquake, in english, but that is in point of fact what it means.

There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know.
is a political force multiplier. Republicans don't have the votes to win the White House again. But if Trump can create some actual Brownshirts that will (for example) break up Sanders' rallies (to be followed, if successful, by Clinton and Cruz rallies), he will have a force that can intimidate voters away from polling places. Another argument, BTW, for vote by mail. Clinton is falling back on her gentle, coddle the Republicans rhetoric and urging incremental change. That's not going to cut it. This will spiral out of control in a couple of months unless we collectively get a handle on it. On Clinton's part she is going to have actually support protesters to the left of her and unconditionally condemn Trump supporters, and there's no way in hell she will. Declare straight up right and wrong, no equivocating.

for 25 years and she is ready for anything, will fight against everything with skill and she has a sick skin. She gets applause for it, although this is not a game plan to beat Trump, which she was asked to describe.
So, pumping up your muscles and act like Popey, who just ate his spinach, is very much liked by the audience.
she and WJC carry several times the average amount of negative luggage, than the average politician. You know--two for the price of one, in more ways than one.
I have long had the feeling that many in the bipartisan Establishment fear that 'the Donald' will expose them, and some of their past misdeeds.
Remember--he is 'one of them.' (1%) He has repeatedly said during the debates, what we all know, but the One Percent does want spoken--that political contributions buy political favors. The Republican debate hosts and talking heads went apocalyptic the first time that he admitted this during a debate. (BTW, he gave FSC as an example of someone who did him a favor in return for contributions.)
I almost literally get a headache every time I think of how nasty this race could get in the General Election. (I'm someone who couldn't even handle blogging at DKos, and left months ago!!!)
will you beat Drumpf." Her answer is the same of "I am the best" b/c 25 years of experience. Crowd eats it up, but it's absolute shite Bernie's answer was real strong. I really want Tulsi Gabbard to get VP for Bernie. When Tulsi says, "On Me," it resonates precisely because of her experience and her strong personality. With HRC, not so much. No matter how this turns out, Tulsi Gabbard is one of our future leaders.

primary has now come down to one single question: "Who can beat Drumpf." Everything from here on out will be seen through that one lens. Who is stronger, tougher, smarter, than Drumpf? Bernie is winning that these past number of days. Tuesday will reflect that. Well, maybe not in FL or NC!

instead has to tell you a whole fairy tale. I can't focus to all those tales. She talks about gun control. But I can't follow her words, she is just so "sophisticated in avoiding a clear answer" that my brain shuts blank.
about this town hall (so I missed the first part).
We heard all the Sunday morning shows; and, Jake Tapper quizzed Bernie on the Trump rallies and his supporters.
Since this thread will soon wind down, I'll post the transcript of the interview excerpt on a thread tomorrow. The MSM has a way of manipulating politicians, so that they have to denounce certain activities in order to avoid being painted as extreme, or radical. It's really unfair. At least two of the show hosts questioned him on the topic, today.
(Not counting Fox News Sunday--which I usually hear, but missed today. We're gluttons for punishment, and listen to every one of the suckers, when possible.)
About FSC's voice--she definitely tries to alter it. (But it never sticks!)
Sometimes, to the point that she 'drones,' LOL!
Hey, glad I didn't have to listen to her very long. Sorry that I missed Bernie.
It's is just me hitching a ride on your comment. I'm on my phone and a scroll to the top to grab a new post or ck the name of this diarist would be a really long scroll. So please forgive my short cut, both of you.
I haven't watched any of the debates or town halls including this one. I have sat in on LD's live blogs, and I thoroughly enjoyed them. So I want to thank whoever did this one. Sorry I missed it and hope to catch the next one.

Oh shit, she's getting asked about fracking.
By an anti-fracking activist who is undecided. (How she could be undecided is beyond me with Clinton's record).
Clinton's response, "Lets give communities the say."
Not, "I will end it."
Fails again...

she calls the earthquakes caused by fracking "tremors"
I think we had a "tremor" in DC which caused the Monument to have cracks. Nice wording "tremors".
Awesome movie, bad side effect of fracking...
She would have lost my vote on Fracking if nothing else.
But then again, I say that about every other word out of her mouth.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
She probably meant to say

Trump
Hillary soft pedals even on attacking Trump on violence at rally's. She cannot nuance going after Trump.
I think Bernie's answer would be much more persuasive
to any voters that are truly still on the fence and concerned about that issue.

That's it exactly: "She cannot nuance Trump." Well said.

HRC advantages is that the Republican have been after her
for 25 years and she is ready for anything, will fight against everything with skill and she has a sick skin. She gets applause for it, although this is not a game plan to beat Trump, which she was asked to describe.
So, pumping up your muscles and act like Popey, who just ate his spinach, is very much liked by the audience.
I think their applause on that one was more polite than
enthusiastic.
She really does hate to answer a question directly doesn't she?
I think her "TRUE" answer would have been, "Cross my fingers..."
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
For sure. Even FSC must recognize that
she and WJC carry several times the average amount of negative luggage, than the average politician. You know--two for the price of one, in more ways than one.

Clinton gives a weak answer on the same question of "How

thanks for doing the live blog again, it's fun, even if the

I wish I was better at campaigning...
Not reassuring for those worried about Trump, who is obviously TOO damn good at it...

I hope that bit of weaselry helps folks decide the question of
who's stronger than Hair Drumpf. He'd run rings around her. Bernie doesn't dance: he bulls ahead. He'll pulverize Drumpf.
