Hillary Clinton Wins Again







At one point during the hearing, Chairman Trey Gowdy, a Republican, said: “This is not a prosecution.” But it was an attempted persecution. It simply failed.

It was a televised witch trial. But the tribunal had before it a woman who would not confess transgression and who defied the flame.

Instead, she was poised, knowledgeable and unflappable. She turned the tables. The committee was on trial, and found wanting in motives, authorities and class.

I keep being surprised by the astonishing degree to which Clinton’s opponents continue to underestimate her.

"She is far from flawless, but she is no slouch or dummy. She is sharp and tough and resilient. She is a rock, and she is not to be trifled with."

Sounds like you.

He's not the biggest Hillary fan so that's what makes the editorial so great, that we are getting converts...Perhaps she's making all the right enemies.

the GOP to outrage more than grace.

Have you noticed now the water carriers of the GOP now propping up attacks on the Clinton Foundation? More like regurgitations than attacks, to be more precise.

Amazing desperation.

Maybe she should join a ballet company!


Or should we refer to her now as "Your Grace"?

I'm sure she gracefully accepts money from her corporate donors.... who, because of her grace expect nothing in return.

This (if you say so)

and 2 terms as senator of NY.... to better position her for a presidential run.... where she lost the chance to even run the 1st time. (so I guess she's not "undefeated&quot


But she's the mostest qualifiedest! I guess because she was 1st Lady. She already knows where everything is in the White House.
