I have just one teensy complaint about this one.

We've seen candidates in both parties in 2016 notorious for having few friends among colleagues. Kaine is the opposite. People like him.


Hillary has been well-liked by colleagues on BOTH sides of the aisle and certainly well-liked among her Dem colleagues, as evidenced by her overwhelming support among Dem SDs. I am surprised to see Giordano make such a claim. OK, he didn't specifically name Hillary - but who did he mean then? If he did mean her, he is wrong.

She may be notoriously unpopular among many who do NOT know her given the 25+ year assault on her integrity and the RW slurs that the M$M let stand. But among those who do know her and who have worked with her, she has NEVER been "notorious" for "having few friends among colleagues."

I am disappointed with the wording of that one.
