(and if "bizarre thinking" is to be considered an insult, did you not first make that insult prior to my post?)
I made no such claim. I referred to "Obama supporters here" I did not refer to you specifically.

I said the notion of Hillary thinking her turn was "stolen" seemed bizarre to me. I do not consider that an insult. Here is the whole post in which I used the bizarre word, just for context which seems so quickly lost here.

That is what I think. I do not think, however, that she believes her "turn" was stolen by an upstart. That seems bizarre to me - particularly considering that she came of age when that upstart Kennedy won the presidency. Of course she wants to win, that is a given. Most all of them except Gravel and maybe Dennis felt they had a legitimate shot at winning.
