Tonight we will see Hawkish Hillary in all her glory. I hope like hell we see something far

[Ed Suspicious]

different from the other two candidates. Don't fail me, Bernie. This is going to be a really important night.

1. He didn't take the bait on Iraq, that was a deeply unpopular vote at the time.

We know his position. Relax.

[LiberalElite]

4. I do hope that

he connects the dots for viewers regarding her vote for the Iraq war and the spreading M.E. chaos of today.

8. I'm counting on this from him! n/t

[winter is coming]

2. I don't see Bernie coming out with an uber-hawkish response.

It would be contrary to what he believes, and I don't think he'd compromise that even if some believe a hawkish answer is politically smart.

[Demeter]

3. What do the American people want to hear?

You know what they want...

Simple solutions for simple, scared people. Bernie has to come up with something better.

Unfortunately, I can't think of anything---and no one has since at least the birth of Christianity, which is the antagonist to Islam on a good day.

[winter is coming]

5. I'm not convinced the American people do want that.

I think a lot of them are tired of pouring money and lives down a rathole.

7. I believe they do.

I agree that most people, their answer to anything too complicated is to bomb.
Unfortunately thinking people are far and few. That's why we attacked Iraq. It
caused all this mess! I was soooo mad when we went into Iraq! I couldn't believe
that Bush was willing to kill a million people just because he felt like it!!! Europeans
have every right to be really angry with the US. Look what happened.

9. Naw. I think basically he only needs to point out this:

Clinton’s Iraq vote is her original sign in the eyes of the liberal Democrats flocking to Sanders’ candidacy. It’s also a reminder that Clinton is far more hawkish than the current president. Her interventionism didn’t end after 2003: She pushed for U.S. intervention in Libya in 2011 and supported arming Syria’s rebels years before the administration reluctantly signed on.

More recently, she’s supported establishing a no-fly zone in Syria in contrast to Obama. I’ve been wondering if and when Clinton would take the opportunity to draw out her differences with Obama on Syria, something moderator Anderson Cooper was clearly trying to encourage in Tuesday night’s debate. But Clinton glossed those differences in a confusing answer that made it sound as if the president agrees with her on working to “provide safe zones” in Syria.

6. Bernie has never been a hawk. Tonight won't be any different.

He hasn't failed me yet!

GO BERNIE! Make us proud! I know you will!

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

10. I wish he would point out how much money her 'charity' has taken from the Saudis

And other Gulf State supporters of IS. But he won't, because it would be seen as a 'low blow'.

Inevitable means more war, more superficial 'remedies' that never get to the root of the problem, more of the same.

I don't have any hope that enough people will have had enough of this.

[SoapBox]

11. I'll be waiting for her to...

"Evolve" and/or Flippity-Floppity on her Iraq vote (I can hardly wait to see if she tries to avoid it or brag it up as something great)...and to see her go from the Moderate to the Progressive to...a Right of Center Something or Other...anticipating more morphing.

And Bernie will stand steady.

12. MSNBC

Just flipped it on and Chuck Todd says that France is saying this is an act of war.
So now they are saying are we obligated to put boots on ground. No kidding. The war
machine is excited and cranking up. I need to put money into war stocks.

[winter is coming]

13. We are not obligated to put boots on the ground and that's pretty much

the stupidest thing we could do.

[leftcoastmountains]

14. I agree! That was Andrea Mitchell earlier.

I got mad and turned it off. Then they had some Republican Representative from Indiana saying the
reason this happened was we have a power vacuum. I took that to mean she was blaming this attack
on Obama! How I hate the Repubs! What about 9/11 what was happening there? She started to say something
about coming together and I started screaming at the computer calling it names. I assumed she is talking war.
I mean what else do these jerks think? Blame Paris on Obama? Wow I didn't see that coming although I should
have!!!!! Their hypocrisy know no bounds! (I keep going to the stream and then switching it off) I mean the whole
thing is like watching a train wreck!
