Regarding the Republican undercard debate...

The candidates attacked Hillary Clinton more than anyone else tonight.

What does that convey to you?

classic thing in primary attack the run you want to run against In other party so support for one your attacking goes up.

i think they will do as in undercard and attack hillary because they DESPERATELY want to run against her, knowing they are likely to win. but i would not be surprised to see trump and a few others at the top float the socialist bogeyman.

will be interesting
