Frontrunner Clinton prepares to debate surging Sanders

Hillary Clinton faces heavy pressure during the first Democratic presidential debate Tuesday to outperform primary rivals cutting into her lead and perhaps keep her biggest potential challenger on the sidelines.

Vice President Biden, still mulling a bid, is not expected to be on stage in Las Vegas. But he’ll surely be watching as the former secretary of state spars in person for the first time with her 2016 Democratic opponents.

And those candidates have not been shy about casting Clinton as a calculating candidate swaying with the political winds.

Most recently, Clinton has taken jabs from Democrats for coming out just last week against a major Pacific nation trade deal. In a taste of what awaits her on the debate stage, underdog rival Martin O’Malley noted he opposed the deal eight months ago, and didn’t just come out against it “on the eve of a debate … because polling told me to do it.”

Not one word will be uttered about the lawbreaking and deceit surrounding HiLIARy's private server or any of the security breach issues involving it.

Demonic-Rats protect the Party at all costs; lies are a little cost to pay.

It would be a brilliant move for Biden to announce today. They are holding a podium open for him.

CNN has said its moderators won’t bait candidates to attack each other as they did in the second GOP debate. The toughest question any of them will get is, “if you were a type of tree, what type would you be?”

Biden's sitting back; my guess is, he won't run unless Hitlery flees the debate bleeding from a dozen wounds.
