(7,616 posts)Its not as if the republicans have not tried to torpedoe the Clintons over the past 30 years. After all that, they came up with nothing.

Not that any of us is always correct but, still, you'd think some might be influenced by the prevailing trend.

(8,749 posts)Hillary has endured many false scandals her whole political career. Whitewater? Travelgate? Honestly after 8 years of made up scandal investigation by Republicans, an nobody ever feeling any kind of repercussion from that bullshit, we should all expect more of the same when Hillary is President.

(14,559 posts)They have been hacking at her for quarter century, literally.
Only break came when BHO became the presumptive nominee in 08, and the first year or two with her as SOS.
Benghazi was the KO of their getting their Hillary hating groove back.

(19,803 posts)Of scrutiny HRC and anything associated with her gets, mispellings, mismatched socks, a bad hair day, what she EATS , reads and thinks are a given.
Any other candidates withered under this or like Senator Sanders, never received this type of treatment.

(6,716 posts)Republicans have been doing this shit since the 90s. I swore to myself when they impeached Clinton that I would never EVER vote Republican (not that it is hard not to).
