Clinton gets her party started

Wins in Massachusetts, California and other big states, plus an uncommonly good speech by their candidate, made a New York Super Tuesday crowd very happy.

    @ Anonymous02:27 PM , you give Anonymous a bad name.

    It wasn't I who brought up the snub in this thread. It was you, apparently feeling vanquished in the previous thread, you now resort to Anonymous. But that is not what gives you a bad name. Your problem is that you lack reading comprehension of the very link that you posted. Nowhere in that link does it say that Hillary Clinton refused to shake hands with Obama in a public sphere. Maybe you should read the entire article, including the correction appended at the end.

    My original discussion on Obama and the SOTU snub outlined how that sort of lack of manners toward an older woman and former first lady could actually politically hurt him in the South and Southwest among voters who take manners seriously.

    Now I shall respond no further to you since you are not on topic in this thread and since you continue to bait me as an anonymous poster.
