She knew what she was doing

foxylad 10y ago
No, she didn't, on many levels. Her underlings should have known better, but if a 68-year-old politician knew anything about internet security practices, I'd vote for them!

  This is really the crux of the case no one is talking about. There seems to be this notion she set out to do this evil deceptive thing. She had no idea, if anything her underlings were to blame. It was a colossal error, and she's terrible at articulating just about anything, let alone this failure. Our choices this cycle are extremely poor, but I'll take her finger on the button any day of the week over the real estate oompa loompa.

    She knew. People spoke up. She lied. There is a reason she is getting hit from every major news org. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/now-know-hillary-lied-multiple-101500675.html http://finance.yahoo.com/news/now-know-hillary-lied-multiple...

      Ok she sucks, but she's still the lesser of the two evils imho.

        Not sure I'd agree. Seems like her voting record aligns more with neocons than liberals (war, traditional marriage, super predators, etc)

        Bernie actually voted for the bill related to "super predators", Hillary did not. How Hillary is blamed for that and not Bernie is unbelievable.

        Likely because Hillary is the one who uttered the phrase.

        He claimed to support it because it included the Violence Against Women Act, and criticized harsh on crime policies. That said high crime rate of the 90s made everyone a bit crazy. Now with dropping crime rates even conservatives talk of reform and jailing fewer people. http://www.vox.com/2016/2/26/11116412/bernie-sanders-mass-incarceration http://www.vox.com/2016/2/26/11116412/bernie-sanders-mass-in...

        That's a bit of a myth that's come about when compared to Sanders. In reality, her voting record is around the 70th percentile most liberal out of Democrat senators (referring to her last year). http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/hillary-clinton-was-liberal-hillary-clinton-is-liberal/ http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/hillary-clinton-was-liber...

        This is a strange election. We have a Democrat who is pro-war, anti gay marriage, and backed by Saudis and wall Street.
        rat87 10y ago
        She isn't against gay marriage. She might be more Hawkish then Trump although considering the fact that Trump is making all his nonsense up as he goes along its really hard to tell. He tacks isolationist since everyone is tired of war and then he tacks we will destroy our enemies since everyone hates ISIS. The Saudis might not be good allies but they are our allies. Considering Trump has talked about retreating from our nicer allies like South Korea and Japan in terms of everyone for themselves I wouldn't be surprised if they prefer her. It's not like they are donating money to her campaign. Wall Street is afraid Trump will do something crazy and destroy the economy.

        There are three options left. The democratic party has not nominated a candidate yet.

  Her underlings were speaking up and were promptly silenced. "The first query was dismissed by Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, claiming that the requirement to use two devices for official and personal e-mail “didn’t make a lot of sense.” Staffers raised concerns again the next January, but were told by a director that Clinton had received approval for her private server, even though she never requested it. Furthermore, the same official “instructed the staff never to speak of the Secretary’s personal e-mail system again.” http://finance.yahoo.com/news/now-know-hillary-lied-multiple-101500675.html http://finance.yahoo.com/news/now-know-hillary-lied-multiple...

  So, after a bogus real estate fraud investigation lead to the revelation of one of Bill's affairs and his subsequent impeachment, and then congress created committees to pour through her records for dirt, you know "on many levels" that she is accidentally keeping her records private. right.
