Hilary's going to be dragged through the mud big time.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 06-23-2016
That's been her life for over 20 years. Fox News is obsessed by her, after all.

Even a year ago, Congressional Democrats would have avoided a confrontation on this issue in the same way that the ALP has no appetite for a fight over refugee policy. This is a seismic shift in the gun issue over there.
Democrats are staging a sit-in demanding a vote on some of the gun control legislation
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 06-27-2016
Trump's support has taken a battering - click HERE. Trump is 7 points down and Clinton is 7 points up. Given that Trump has boasted about every poll which put him in a good light, he isn't well placed to say he doesn't care about polls.
The fact remains - he has taken a beating even In the wake of a Muslim shooting 49 people to death. How could that happen to a conservative politician?
Trump also seems to waste another benefit conservative politicians enjoy in the public's mind. They are generally thought of as more likely to rein in debt and deficits. That is questionable as they are obsessed with cutting taxes which increases deficits if they don't have the will or ability to offset them with spending cuts. But the non-partisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates Trump will push National debt to 127% of GDP by 2026 compared to 87% for Clinton - click HERE. Of course, it's difficult to make predictions when Trump doesn't release any specific policies. For instance, do you assume Trump will build a really wall and, if so, do you assume Mexico will foot the bill for it? But this analysis makes it hard for Trump to run a scare campaign about Clinton spending the US into crippling debt in the same way as the LNP does here. Yet another reason he is losing libertarian voters. They are socially progressive but economically conservative. He loses on both scores.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - madbluboy - 06-27-2016
Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump launched the first in a series of attacks against rival Hillary Clinton Thursday, accusing the former secretary of state of lying to the families of those killed in an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
Trump's campaign, in a minute-long ad posted on its new "LyingCrookedHillary.com" website, contended that Clinton was aware that the Benghazi incident was a terrorist attack within hours, but "lied anyways," suggesting it was due to a YouTube video.
"She stood in front of the flag-draped coffins of four Americans that died serving their country and peddled the lie that the video was to blame both to the victims' families and the American public," the campaign posted on the website.
The video includes clips in which Clinton stated that American embassies saw violence over "an awful Internet video," a well as an interview in which Patricia Smith, the mother of victim Sean Smith, states, "she lied to me, she told me it was the fault of the video."
The ad is the first in a series of 10 "Legendary Lies" Trump's campaign said it will announce.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 06-27-2016
Pity he's not the kind of candidate to make that smear campaign stick. Honest Abe he aint. He's the biggest liar and crook of them all. Jumping on right-wing conspiracy theories will only please the wingnuts on the extreme right and he had already sewn up that voting block.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - madbluboy - 06-27-2016
He's a lunatic but Hillary is evil, American voters have a tough choice. Sanders was the obvious choice for mine.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - cookie2 - 06-27-2016
Apparently the Trumpster is beginning to tone things down a bit now as he realises he's heading into the presidential election phase.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 06-27-2016
Evil? She's been in politics for 25 years or so. As with any other politician who has been around for that long, she has made mistakes and has changed policy positions. Just look at Turnbull. Here's a guy who wanted a republic, wanted an emissions trading system and favoured a parliamentary vote on same-sex marriage. Yet he sold out all of those positions to topple Abbott. He also stuffed up the NBN. But would you call him evil?
What you have in the US is a right-wing obsession with Obama and Clinton. There are conspiracy nuts who concoct bizarre accounts about such things as Obama being a secret Muslim who was born in Kenya and Clinton refusing to assist the Ambassador in Benghazi. The fact that one was the first black US President and the other hopes to be the first female President may not be just a coïncidence. Let Trump peddle the Alex Jones conspiracy stories as if they were fact. That's evil. And Trump's bigotry and his reckless demagoguery is evil. But Clinton is evil? Hmmmm ...
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - madbluboy - 06-27-2016
Good thing I'm not a right wing american then.... ;D
She doesn't make mistakes. She lies and changes her position on big issues for personal gain which Obama highlighted when she went up against him 8 years ago.
