Voters (other than federal workers) are not electing their boss, so Klobuchar's treatment of staff isn't likely to be the most important factor when Democrats choose a nominee. People tend to be more concerned about how they themselves would fare as American citizens under a particular administration. The current president, while not alleged to have engaged in exactly the same behavior as her, seems to have a number of former staff who don't hold him in high regard either.

There is an extensive article in the New York Times this week about Klobuchar, so it's odd to assert that "the liberal media covers it up". Unless one doesn't consider the NY Times to be liberal?

Yet you have no problem when Dem controlled mainstream media does it to Republicans? The hypocrisy of the Loony Left is strong.

I think there is selective reporting to favor one Dem candidate over the other by how much is censored by liberal media. Pay attention in the upcoming months and you will know who the DNC has chosen already. If they wanted Klobuchar you'd never have heard about her treating her staff in a demeaning way.

Also don't forget each candidate is doing opposition research on their competition for the Dem nomination. The question is, have they learned their lesson from Hillary's mistakes or will they be paying Russians again?

What does this have to do with the thread title?

I don't believe the story. Who would eat a salad with a comb? Gross. How would you even do it? What airliner wouldn't have any kind of utensils on board?

I'm a liberal, and because of this I will not vote for her! It's not just the fact that she's "hard" on her staff, but that she has the nerve to get up there, and play the nice girl winch we now know is a lie. If she was a witch all around I'd be more open, but the two faced sociopathic tendencies are everything one hates about politician's.

Yeah. Male politicians never do that! What politician hasn’t put on a nicer front in the public eye??

Your calling her sociopathic is based on what, exactly?

Here we go again with expecting democratic candidates to be perfect, while republicans vote for bottom-of-the-barrel candidates to get their policies passed. If you keep expecting perfection out of your candidates, you’ll end up with Individual 1 and conservative policies continuing to ruin this country.

But yeah... Amy threw a book, so she can’t be president! Give me a break!

I like her, nonetheless, because she is very effective as a Senator. She'll probably do well in Iowa, but not in New Hampshire. She's not going to be the last one standing and I feel relieved about that because she can go back to being a full-time Senator, unafraid to cross party lines on legislation that is important to her and her constituents in Minnesota. I'd love to see her as the US Attorney General, head of the Justice Department, if the Democrats can only find a way to win.
