Clinton will be DESTROYED w/the truth and a good portion of the Democratic Party along with her. [View all]

Last edited Mon Feb 15, 2016, 11:39 AM - Edit history (1)

I watched some of the Fox Voter Revolt show Yes I know it was on Fox but the EXACT sentiment expressed by the former Hillary Supporter that supported her in 08 (and that was interviewed) is what I have also seen other former Hillary supporters say.

The woman said that Clinton is corrupt and the more she learned the more DISGUSTED she became. You try to paint what people feel as hate, but it is not hate. It is UTTER DISGUST with her actions (and those of Bill). Add to that a review of their record and the damage it has wrought and the disgust level increases.

As pointed out on Face the Nation a couple of weeks back the INVESTIGATION of Hillary will begin in the general election. If they didn't want to run against Clinton there are a lot of facts they could have disclosed in primary ads BUT they have not. It is because they know they can destroy her in the general election and a good part of the party with her.

Update: And how do you think that is going to impact Obama's legacy? I think many will end up furious with Clinton over the damage it will do to Obama.
