Their obsession with the gender and race of voters and saying that women will go to a special place in Hell if they don't vote for Hillary seeks to reduce us all to our skin color or our genitals for their convenience.

She needed to attack Sanders' policies while avoiding any attack on his character (this is a primary after all) but that effort has been muddled by the lack of clarity about her own shifting policies and concerns about her character.

It is 2008 all over again.
