If you're anything like us, you won't be making any decisions about which Democratic presidential candidate to support until they've run The View's political gauntlet, where they're forced to face a punishing inquisition at the hands of America's most influential panel of couchbound pundits.

Does it bother you when people say you're a cold bitch?").
