The Clinton rope a dope.

---------------------------------------------------------
Hillary has gone above and beyond in her attempts to avoid the
press and anyone else for that matter, but come on, roping
herself off from everyone except those she wanted to talk to? A
candidate that was previously thought was unbeatable is rapidly
sinking in a mire of her own making.
[quote]ck Klein notes “the image of a roped-off, moving press
scrum trailing Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire didn’t shatter
democracy. But for a candidate whose chief rival is drawing
record crowds (and whom nobody thought could be Clinton’s rival
to anything), strictly controlled access hardly projects a
willingness to engage with voters and the press.”
First Read: “Look, we get that Clinton is the only 2016
candidate so far who has Secret Service protection (because
she’s a former first lady), which presents challenges for the
candidate and the press in a parade setting. We also get that
she was trying to talk to crowd, not to reporters. And we get
that Hillary (because she’s the frontrunner and because of her
past history with the press) is rarely going to get the benefit
of the doubt on this type of story. But come on: This was such
an unforced error and bad optics — on an event that was ALL
ABOUT the optics.”[/quote]

Gee with the title of this thread I thought we would have a bit
more fun than that. How about this? Pope on a rope soap.

After watching the Hillary interview on CNN today I now know why
she keeps the press at arms length. Not only does she have a
gross inability to tell the truth. She is a very poor liar. I
don't suspect her pull numbers will be going up after the poor
performance she put in with a softball interviewer.

The CNN reporter turned complete control of that interview over
to her. Let her dance and skip around the actual questions.
Accepted her dodging the questions as complete and acceptable
answers.
And she flat out lied about the e-mails. And then she said she
would not even answer any questions about the charity and the
donations for favors issues.
And as to the fact that 6 out 10 Americans think she is
dishonest. She said that is attributed to some far right
conspiracy.

I think it's awful nice of Hillary to instruct her staff to turn
over her server to the FBI. :D :D
You know, the server that nobody was going to see? I'm sure the
FBI would have waited around for a while. I find myself LMFAO
at her campaigns attempt to make it look like she's cooperating
with all involved.
[quote]Hillary Clinton has asked her staff to hand over her
homemade email server to the Justice Department, her campaign
said Tuesday night — just hours after an independent government
watchdog said she had at least two “top secret” emails on her
unsecured network.
Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill told reporters that Clinton
“directed her team to give her email server that was used during
her tenure as secretary to the Department of Justice, as well as
a thumb drive containing copies of her emails already provided
to the State Department.”
“She pledged to cooperate with the government’s security
inquiry, and if there are more questions, we will continue to
address them,” he added.[/quote]

Insiders( I'll wait and see) are saying that 2 of 4 emails that
the fbi were looking for have been found on her server. I'm
hoping she gets prison time

Could this cost her the election? Maybe. Will she go to prison?
Never happen.
I personally think she should have known better. She was
Secretary of State, for Pete's sake.

Petreaus was fined and found guilty of storing classified
information in two notebooks. Maybe this information wasn't
classified when he put it there. Nevermind. It may work for
Hillary but not for anyone else. I'm hoping she is held to the
same standard as everyone else but I'm not holding my breath.

They didn't turn it over. It was taken by the FBI.

Clinton's unfavorability rating is a dismal 52%, her worst
ratings in 14 years. A majority does NOT like her and that
majority is growing, not shrinking.
The two republican front runners aren't doing any better, Trump
(that kinda hurt)is worse at 57% and Bush is a bit better at 45%
unfavorable.
(For comparison, Obama is 47% unfavorable)
I guess that's what it's come down to, a race where every
candidate stinks.
