117. The VRWC will make ANYTHING into a "mistake" - even when everything is correct & proper.

Nov 2015

Hell, half the "mistakes" listed in the OP are total lies made up from whole cloth by them. The only real crime The Clinton's are guilty of is the same as EVERY Democrat - that of not being Republican. Just as guilty as Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, Gore, Kerry and Obama. And Sanders is just as guilty as they are.

FDR said: "Judge me by the enemies I have made." As far as I can see all the people who hate Hillary are the correct ones.
