A GOP playbook against HRC

I'm not a fan of HRC... however, I'm a big advocate of fairness.
So, I wanted to link this website and invite HRC fans to debunk the information claimed at the following website.

I see this as a tool to help keep a clear picture of who HRC truly is, rather than a biased distortion.

http://thehillarydaily.com/
Note: At the time of this posting there were no advertisements on the linked website...
so clicking through should not provide financial benefit to the site.

Please notify me know if this changes.

6. You can choose to proactively debunk their talking points or not.

Again, it is your choice.

The GOP will raise the that site's SEO regardless of if anyone here goes to it.
If you don't wish to be for-armed, it is quite literally no skin off my nose.

This is information the GOP is going to use... so now would be the time to debunk these in advance of future debates.
Effectively disarming GOP talking points.

I knew you'd take it exactly that way. I knew you'd never accept it as a good-will effort to provide a tool for fighting what will be a GOP propaganda and smear-book.

I also knew you'd try and twist the framing. You're becoming predictable VR.
Truthfully, I don't care how you specifically take it... this was purely a heads-up for those who're actively interested in fighting propaganda.

Clearly that's not you.

Either people will find it a useful tool, or they won't. It won't hurt my feelings either way.

How can she beat anyone? She's not even running yet.

Wow...I couldn't even type that with a straight face... don't know how you manage.

HRC wont beat anyone if that website's information goes unchallenged.

But hey, she's not my candidate, so I don't even know why I'm trying to convince you, of all people.

15. Who needs a playbook?

It's going to be ugly. It's going to be nasty. It's going to be tawdry. It's going to be unsettling. It will be unworthy of gentlemen, unworthy of Americans, and unworthy of civilized human beings.

In other words: It will be typical GOP boilerplate.

I think Hillary Clinton is up to the challenge.

I suppose a playbook would be a bit redundant, wouldn't it.

Thanks for the perspective.
