Two things about the debate that ticked me off:

1) Sanders' constant movement with his right hand that he uses to accentuate every word. Every word does not require accentuation. Every time I see him speak it bugs me more. It has become almost intolerable.

2) Who were the group of young women who screeched out every Sanders made a comment. It stuck me has very disingenuous and fake. Not every word out of anyone's is worth screams. The constant reparation bothered me more and more as the debate continued.

The are unchallenged by young women in that category. I am an equal opportunity brasher.

However, I have never seen young men go as crazy as young women at rock concert. I have also never seen young men throw their undergarments on the stage. And I have also never seen young men go ga-ga over a politician and treat him like a rock star. Also, reference tonight's screeching, I didn't know young men had voices that high.

being a rock groupie. I went to hear Bernie when he spoke near my college several months ago, and the high pitched shrieking was almost intolerable. I'm pretty sure that the vast majority had no idea of the issues...it was just the thing to do.
