This would be funny, except for the fact that someone got stabbed:
District attorney Risa Ferman says a heated debate over the candidates escalated into violence:
"One is a supporter of Barack Obama, the other is a supporter of Hillary Clinton, and an argument of words turned bloody when one brother-in-law tried to choke the other and the victim then responded with a knife and stabbed his brother-in-law in the stomach.”
[Sean] Shurelds was taken to the hospital in critical condition. [Jose] Ortiz [pictured] is jailed in lieu of $20,000 bail. Police found the knife in the dishwasher.
The best part:
If Ortiz is convicted of the felony charge, he won’t be able to vote. And voter registration records reveal that Ortiz, who supports Clinton, is registered Republican.
I'm sure he'll be missed in the Taylor Marsh site commments section.

Yours is Comment of the Year, so far.

This is great news for Clinton, since it shows she has crossover appeal. Yeah! Eat that, Barack!

Unfortunately, the Pennsylvania primary is closed - to Republicans and felons alike.
