"Sanders can beat Trump. And Hillary can’t — not anymore."

After latest email revelations and endless dishonesty, time for Hillary Clinton to head for the hills
by Linda Stasi
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Saturday, May 28, 2016


If the Democrats want to save themselves the indignity of a total slaughter, Hillary Clinton should drop out of the race. After last week, a Hillary-led ticket has as much chance of winning the White House as Trump has of losing the white vote. Sanders can beat Trump. And Hillary can’t — not anymore.

Too many scandals, too many years of Clinton fatigue, and now, after the latest email revelations, just too many lies chasing her like Van Helsing on Dracula.

But The Donald lies too — and he’s killing it, right?

So yes, the two presumptive candidates (well, he no longer needs to presume) lie like cheap rugs.

The difference is that Hillary lies and sticks to it, and Donald lies and gets away with it.

If the Dems didn’t have such a giant death wish, coupled with fear of the Clinton machine, the party leaders would force her to drop out.

Certainly ... well yes LITERALLY!
MSNBC To the deniers... Watch THIS Video... It is not comforting to think that she may well be the Democratic Nominee...

Hillary really betrayed Andrea Mitchell... The entire context of this report was of a solemn nature... A Funeral so to speak...

Andrea Mitchell "I do not see this report as ...ANYTHING BUT... DEVASTATING!"

Chuck Todd "After this I don't think that she could get confirmed for Attorney General!"

Lots of FIBBING by Hillary here.. for more than a year!

Where she said one of the victims was just as bigoted as the people who killed him?

But she on the "Winner should submit to the loser" train, so she's a new religious figure for the Sanders crowd

There have been better written posts on DU arguing the same point (without annoying Daily News ads).

"Too many scandals"

None of which have ever produced anything.

"Clinton fatigue"

Which is why she's beating Sanders by 3 million votes and will be the presumptive nominee on June 8th.

"blah blah blah"

That one, I agree with.

I thought the Clinton's "owned" NY Daily News (in a manner of speaking). Surprised to see anything critical of her, much less a call for her to drop out.


interesting.

obviously know something huge is coming down. Not many of the Hill shills have gotten the memo, or are just ignoring it. Bernie will be the nominee and I think they know it.
