Re: 2016 Election
You guys have been trying to find a scandal for decades.
You fail every time.
What's worse is that even though you fail miserably, you never acknowledge it.
Why should this time be any different? And why should anyone take you seriously when it always ends up imploding and proving you wrong?
Those who have batting averages of zero should stop pretending that they belong in the major leagues.

Think about this: the disclosure of the email issue was made by a non-government-related Romanian hacker who disclosed it to the NYT, which broke the story - and the NYT is hardly a right-wing rag. A top general in national security has said that if such an individual could hack her email server it is virtually certain that the Russians, Chinese and Iranians, at a minimum, also hacked the server and could read our most sensitive national security secrets in real time. But the investigation is not concerned with whether or not the server was hacked.

Same as Giantaxe - normal reflexive crap. Hillary made this problem all by herself, and as I pointed out, the investigation and the decision on what to do with it is entirely in the hands of Obama.

Again, your track record with scandals is zero percent. Maybe you ought to up your game before you worry about anyone else.

Re: 2016 Election
Tomorrow is Iowa. Everybody is losing their mind.
For the brain trust:
Is anybody else as sick to the back teeth of Iowa and New Hampshire having such overblown importance in the process? I know we've had this debate on BE before and somebody will probably be along shortly to tell me why it's a good thing.
What are your thoughts on the Democrats in Iowa? A squeaker?
What about VP picks in all of the different scenarios. Who would so-and-so pick for VP? Would Hillary pick Bernie? Would he accept? I don't think Bernie would pick Hillary and I don't think she would accept if he did so we can just skip that little thought-experiement. What about the Republicans?

Most interesting thing of the night ... DONALD TRUMP is somewhere being FURIOUS.
Cruz is so awful though, the cure may be worse than the illness.

Re: 2016 Election
Exactly what I was thinking on both counts. The Donald must be going absolutely apeshit, but Cruz ..... shudders .....

I have this vision of him getting on his airplane and heading home in a snit! Of course, it will be the liars, bimbos, and all-around just plain ugly fat people who have upset his plans.
