If all tRump has is Vince Foster, the former First Member and Whitewater, they don't have much

Trump Camp Accidentally Emails Politico Its Plan To Hit Clinton On Whitewater

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/trump-camp-accidentally-emails-reporter-plan-hit-clinton-whitewater

A Trump campaign plan to target Hillary Clinton over the decades-old Whitewater real estate scandal was made public on Wednesday afternoon when a Trump spokeswoman accidentally included a Politico reporter on the email thread.

According to Politico’s report, Trump campaign adviser Michael Caputo emailed a researcher at the Republican National Committee asking him to “work up information on HRC/Whitewater as soon as possible. This is for immediate use and for the afternoon talking points process.”

Trump campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks, who was cced on Caputo’s email, accidentally responded to Politico reporter Marc Caputo instead, making the entire email exchange visible.


Watching tRump go down in a ball of flames because all he has are 15 to 40 year old "scandals" is going to be interesting.

But he doesn't want to damage Hillary before June 7th (doesn't want to risk running against Bernie), so he tosses out a bunch of fluffy stuff that nobody gives a shit about.

On June 8th, the Howitzers are leveled.

Doesn't mean it is going to be successful beyond the Fox lovers and the left-over Richard Mellon Scaife fans.

If he has anything

Hill's PACs need to go after him hard NOW, before it is too late. It is like they are using the same playbook as the other GOP nominees did. They ALL LOST

so he could profit from it. It is pretty damning, hoping it gets more exposure.

If I find the link I will add it to my post.

But it is never a good sign when you hope people are willing to vote against someone instead of voting someone they like


Plus the other side has masses that will do anything to vote against Hillary
