Here's a great line from Streiff, at the Red State: "You really have to appreciate the relationship the Clinton criminal empire has with coincidence." I always have wondered how far it has extended. OK, I'm one who has always questioned the deaths of Vince Foster and Ron Brown, among others. Coincidence...... What was the joke about FBI Director James Comey? He is pictured with these words, "I would like to indict Hillary, but I don't want to end up with Vince Foster." Another goes, "She's as guilty as hell, but I don't want to die suddenly and mysteriously."
I was on my bike the other day and a woman in a car stopped and just started yakking. I never saw her before, but she was elderly (says the elderly man!). She went on a rant about Clinton, spewing forth all sorts of venom. Then she starting touting the wonders of Trump. I listened for a bit and then just shook my head, saying, "I don't think so" and rode off.
I see yet another "top Republican" has thrown his support to Clinton. I can't say I've heard of the guy, but he was called a "top Republican" by the newspaper. Of course, that's his right. I think he's very misguided, as he would be if he supported Trump, his party's candidate. But therein lies the problem, "top Republican." The Republican Establishment still doesn't get it, doesn't understand. It's them, the party elitists, who have caused Trump. They are the ones who ignored the Republican base. They are the ones who haven't reached out with a message to attract the independents and fence-sitters. They are the ones who, afraid of being called names, have caved in to Democrat/liberal demands from the government. Instead of sticking with principles, they bailed, fearful of taking principled stances that might cost them their positions. Well, it looks like their lack of principled actions have cost them their party.
Isn't it amazing that 34% (?) of Americans don't at all trust Trump? Even more amazing is that eve more, 37% (?), don't trust Clinton. I know we've had elections with putrid candidates--how about W. Bush and Gore in 2000? But have we ever had an election where so many Americans categorize the candidates as pathological liars?
I'm curious how the loathsome twosome at the head of the two parties' slates will affect the rest of the candidates? Will people stay home, disgusted? Will they come and vote for US Senate and House, as well as state and local offices? Only about 2 months to go...... Is this the beginning of the end?
