First day was pretty electric, I thought. AOC, Clinton, Warnock and Crockett tearing the roof off the joint.

      What’s to tell? She withdrew when she realized she didn’t have the votes at the time. End of story.

      The important thing that happened after that was Biden selecting his one-time rival as his running mate.

        She did such a horrible job that she dropped out polling 5th in her home state? We Californians knew who she was and didn’t trust her. Now the Dem party thinks she can beat Trump? I hope they’re right this time. If Hillary couldn’t beat him…
