May 2016

The partisan witch hunt against her is a real thing. If she immediately gives over to every request, they'll just pore through everything, take a few words out of context, and create a dozen *new* controversies.

Democrats and other left-leaning individuals need to be fighting with Hillary Clinton over issues of policy. Not over manufactured bullshit like this. (Or Benghazi, or Whitewater, or Vince Foster, etc., etc., etc.)

FWIW, I didn't vote for the woman. But it looks an awful lot like she's going to be my candidate this fall.
