Why won't Hillary Clinton release at the text (preferably audio) of her speeches to Goldman Sachs?

What did she say? Is there something she is trying to hide?

If I were a Clinton supporter I would encourage her to release the text of those speeches. No self-respecting member of the Democratic Party should expect anything less. We have a right to know.

1. that's bread winning intellectual property right there...

...clearly worth a lot of money. Why should she simply give it away when she can dole it out on Wall Street for hundreds of thousands of dollars per utterance?

2. She didn't say anything...she laughed in the guy's face who asked about it.

3. And she wonders why most Americans (including members of her own party) don't trust her? n/t

4. She knows that we will pick it apart and find a million ways to mock her with it.[n/t]

5. I suspect so. n/t

6. Is that considered a private conversation?

Just trying to figure out if what you propose is fair or not. I wouldn't expect it proper to have to disclose a private conversation unless the circumstances warranted it.

8. Are you serious?

She is running for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES and you are talking about if it is "proper" for the people to know what she said? You are joking, right?

13. I believe Mitt Romney was having a private conversation

when he said he thought 47% of Americans were deadbeats. He didn't want that released either.

14. Thank you very much.

Sometimes I need a kick start.

Not to mention, I'm too nice.

7. She told them to "cut it out"

Who wouldn't pay a quarter of a million dollars to hear someone say shit like that?

10. "Something something 47%."

eom

11. It's amazing

One of these speeches hasn't popped up on YouTube or been recorded. Do they collect everyone's devices when they enter or something?

12. I'm kinda interested in what a $200,000 speech looks like.

I might re-work it a little bit and start giving a few of those myself.
