Oct 2015: 9 killed @ Oregon college shooting; CA Planned Parenthood firebombed; HRC on SNL

http://www.democracynow.org/2015/10/2/headlines

There was a lot going on that weekend. To expect candidates to focus only on crises is silly.

I'm glad HRC is using her influence to draw attention to the crisis in Flint, but to imply SBS doesn't care about that issue is ridiculous.

It does make me wonder if those who do lack the confidence to make a case based on policy differences.
