Gee, would Rachel Maddow hug Ted Cruz or Carly Fiorina like that??
No way.

Horning in on Huma’s action?

She/He/It should be disqualified from moderating any political debates ever again.

I think The Don would require that she be fogged with bleach first...
To: Steely Tom
That might be an advantage for their progress, even though they are, er, progressive.
What if all the Republicans acted that way instead of like a clowder of independent cats?

It does seem like a lot of nod, wink. That even though they say they are rivals, Bernie would leave a lot of room for Hillary and vice versa.
I could wish that we’d see this sort of collegiality between, say, Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. That, at the very least, you win by out classing your opponent not by out crassing him.

Sorry Bern, Rachel would be on top.
With Hill, it would be a tossup. Probably settled by feats of strength, like a nut-cracking contest, or a pommel horse scissor-off.

Heck, in the 1st debate he actually defended her right there on the debate stage DURING the debate (about emailgate IIRC)........... What a joke.
