I will pay for the dry cleaning of the purse.... We'll split it among the millions that had the same reaction. My share will be .000666 cents according to current calculations - the same as the other millions.

Clearly she's not looking to expand within the Democratic electorate. Conservatives who might dump Trump and conceivably consider our nominee if not intercepted? Perhaps demographics for some senatorial races could be even more surgical targets...?

Wouldn't it be a shame if a new TV career fell through for some reason? She tends to have that effect on her life.

Just looked at Breitbart and saw what Crowman means. The RW machine's really revved up for her.

The former Secretary of State gave us a sober and well-grounded warning about an unnamed candidate. Tulsi immediately assumed it was herself (one wonders why) and came at Hillary spewing Right Wing vileness.

That's hardly a spat.
