Scandal! WikiLeaks reveals Hillary Clinton to be . . . reasonable.

From the Washington Post Editorial Board October 10 at 7:25 PM

THE CLINTON campaign has refused to deny or confirm the authenticity of a WikiLeaks report including apparent purloined emailed excerpts of her paid speeches to corporate audiences in the years between her departure from the State Department in 2013 and her declaration for president in 2015. We hope the excerpts are genuine, because at least in the texts made public as of Monday, the Hillary Clinton that emerges is a knowledgeable, balanced political veteran with sound policy instincts and a mature sense of how to sustain a decent, stable democracy.

Snip

This whole episode illustrates that point. Ms. Clinton kept the speeches under wraps out of fear that they would be distorted for political purposes by her populist foes. Alas, that fear was amply justified in this populistic, polarized environment, as the manufactured uproar over their release proves. The fact that Ms. Clinton’s eminently reasonable and open-minded words regarding the issues and her opponents are being treated as scandalous is the real scandal.

1. That has been my take on the ones I've read

The speeches - she wasn't telling them what they wanted to hear. She also is in favor of single payer which everyone in those rooms and everyone outside of our corporate news bubble knows is the best way to do a healthcare system.

The emails - she knows what she's doing. People discuss things via email.
