Very carefully chosen words to never commit and take every side of every issue.

Since I mentioned Wolf.

She did it at least twice, she's incapable of one word simple direct answers.

She answers every question as if it's "Please tell us without a breath whatever you want to say and please do not stop even when we ask you over and over to please stop."

She could have tapped in circles and waved her arms for about 5 minutes ducking that question multiple times. And then she kept pretending that she had given a straight answer. Bernie did a good job of pinning her down, asking her does that mean yes? Well yes, if that's what the consensus is and blah blah blah........

Which is her answer for just about everything. "If I discover that some of the people (my donors) agree with it, and members of Congress agree with it, then we will sit down and discuss it ..." Which means "talk about it until I don't take the blame for it if my major backers don't support it."

Which none of them will because they are dying to privatize Social Security.

on this critical issue and it just depends on what other people decide to bring me as President? Why is she even running, other than she thinks her life will be a failure if she doesn't win the Presidency to match her husband? What is it she even wants to do as President, other than exercise personal power and top off her resume?
