Yeah she said that on Monday but then on Wednesday joined with the NO!!!!! crowd as demanded by Majority Leader McConnell and once again sold our her common sense and principles for partisan pig headed fealty to party over oath to uphold the Constitution.

Maybe to you but not to most sentient beings. An independent would not agree to disrespecting elderly women, blacks, and progressives on a regular basis. Pious and condescending, consider letting go of your self-centered-ness and join others in making this a better world for the following generations.

ah, no.

She didn't deserve any of the "honk if you hate hillary" campaigns waged against her...
