his sexual behavior and the danger it created for our democracy.

In hindsight, I don't remember why he didn't just resign and give us President Gore instead.

Because the entire Democratic Party and every Democratic constituency rallied around him.

In hindsight, it was stupid but he seemed a better alternative at the time than the Republicans.

What was the logic again? "Private business."

Maybe if we hadn't let him get away with it, we wouldn't have the entitled powerful Clintons being investigated by the FBI, and in fantasy land, the Republicans could have kept Junior away from the public troff.

and my fellow dems gave him a pass. I had experienced that from an employer some years earlier and was simply disgusted by both their actions.

It makes my skin crawl her campaign is using this vile talking point to smear Bernie. Every day, I am more convinced than ever that I will not vote for her if she's the nominee.

If Brock and Hillary mouthpieces want to assert that Bernie is flawed, or sexist or a horrible human being--because he waved his wife off the stage--wouldn't they think through the the possible responses--like Bill Clinton's blow jobs that happened right in the White House?

It's like launching an attack against someone for driving without a seatbelt--when you yourself have driven drunk and killed a busload of nuns--several times!

Has the Clinton camp run off the rails?

Gobsmacked from Bernie's wins last weekend?

It seems that Brock goes off on his own tone deaf way. And he has NO moral compass.
