What's stunning is that HRC supporters have such a very difficult time REGARDLESS of source, pushing back the narrative of HRC in public perception... which is the highest unfavorables in recent memory of any DEM potential candidate

That she's polling nationally equal to or below TRUMP is just another indicator of how piss poor her 'likability' is

When you have HRC supporters posting these 'responses' in an attempt to muzzle dissension within DEM minded folks who just want to make sure the best candidate is presented is remarkable, yes a quantity despise HRC but not all...

All HRC supporters are doing is attempting to create a similar echo chamber in DEM as has been generated for quite awhile within GOP... and I for one do not want to see that occur

So to all those HRC supporters here in DU.... Do you really wish to create that bubble? that mindless echo chamber like they have on the right?

NOT the content or conclusions drawn...From MSNBC, btw: the outlet that has not only consistently inflated Hillary's lead, but has outright admitted they'll influence CA voting by calling the race for HRC on the East Coast...

when talking about one of the political world's most shameless pathological liars, one Donald Trump. The bias is blatant. And her credibility as a journalist is zero.

She goes with whatever the prevailing winds are, like all of those hacks.

Nothing special about her or anyone else on that panel when it comes to analysis.

They've been lying for years. They are all about promoting what is good for the GOP.

They haven't magically become Truth-Tellers.

If Bernie were to win the nomination, they would lie about him as well.

Also remember that the ultimate job of advertiser supported news is to generate ratings in order to generate more ad revenues. They do that w sensationalism.

To me sounds like Clinton did some stupid shit. As to innocence and guilt re criminality, I,m gonna wait for the FBI report. All the rest is spin and media speculation.

Trump will obliterate her with this. Whether or not Bernie will use this information is yet to be seen. I know what I'd do at this stage of the game, if I were him. She pretty much just put Trump in the White House.

But then in 2 weeks, everyone will conveniently forget about this.

... and that is to make sure that the MOST ELECTABLE candidate in November is given the nomination.

That candidate is not Hillary Clinton (by any stretch of the imagination). That candidate is Senator Sanders.

Today would be a great day for everyone to (once again) contact their Superdelegates and let them know we want to WIN in November. It's kind of important.

She's to the right of us but her opinion, and that of the panel she had on, is relevant and of interest to those of us wanting our side to not be embarrassed.
