I'm sure all of them had, in some way, said something along the lines of "shock and grief", and I don't see why it needs to be anything beyond that. And surely the silence doesn't mean they don't care. Perhaps the opposite.

I understand a respectful amount of time between the incident and moving on CCIP. Look at the debate in this forum. The debate has been no less heated on other forums. I would consider a candidate making a statement regarding the issues a sign of leadership. If nothing else this country respects leadership.
Important issues are at stake. We should know where the candidates stand.........without the polls.
