Clinton looks past Trump

Using her most dismissive language of the campaign — “I don’t even think about responding to him anymore” — Clinton said Saturday she is now more focused on electing other Democrats in the final days of the 2016 campaign than her Republican opponent.

“As we’re traveling in these last 17 days we’re going to be emphasizing the importance of electing Democrats down the ballot,” Clinton told reporters aboard her campaign plane.

It was the surest declaration of confidence yet from a candidate and a campaign that enters the home stretch in so commanding a position that they are redirecting cash and manpower to traditionally red states, including Arizona, Missouri, Indiana and Georgia

If she wins there is one positive I can think of. Obama will have to pack up and leave the scene. If she wins there is no need for that POS to stick around. He has done such damage. That being said just vote and let the chips fall where they may. If you come trying to take my stuff or step to me I will shoot you in the face leftists. IN THE FACE.

Colin Powell accused her of incompetence due to hubris - I imagine this is just another example of it.

More spin.

Just like when Hillary alludes to the overflow crowd at her events, (that don’t exist) when she can’t pay enough people to fill the room she’s in.

Hoping to fool enough people that she’s winning.

Ha...I was just going to post the "Hubris" word... and was thinking of a pithy comment to make.

Thanks in advance.

Via Washington Post:

It was a few weeks before Hillary Clinton would announce her 2016 presidential bid, and she was already worried about money.

“Can we discuss the fundraising plans for first quarter?” her top aide Huma Abedin wrote to other senior staffers in March 2015, noting that Clinton was concerned.

“Is the issue that she’s doing too much? Too little?” asked campaign manager Robby Mook.

Abedin’s succinct reply: “JEB BUSH.”

At the time, donors to the former Florida governor were socking millions into a super PAC, pushing the limits of campaign-finance rules. The stockpiling of seven-figure checks before Bush even declared candidacy spurred a flurry of anxious conversations between Clinton and her staff, according to hacked emails posted by WikiLeaks.

But the former secretary of state had her own financial weapon: a network of political backers that she and her husband, former president Bill Clinton, had methodically cultivated over 40 years.

Determined not to fall behind in the money race, Hillary Clinton ramped up her appeals to rich donors and shrugged off restrictions that President Obama had imposed on his fundraising team.

Even as her advisers fretted about the perception that she was too cozy with wealthy interests, they agreed to let lobbyists bundle checks for her campaign, including those representing some foreign governments, the emails show. Top aides wooed major donors for super PACs, taking advantage of the leeway that campaigns have to legally collaborate with the groups on fundraising.

This is simply the latest media meme to try to get a weak, unlikable candidate elected. I think they’re overplaying their hand. Trump voters will vote, regardless of what the media is saying. A lot of Hillary voters won’t bother if they think she already has it in the bag. One thing I’ve gleaned from reading hundreds of the Wikileaks emails is that her staff and the media are nowhere near as smart as they think they are.

She’s like der Fuhrer at the end...hunkered down in his bunker ordering around divisions that existed in name only, thinking he was going to win the war through his genius and force of personality. Lashing out at anyone that dared speak the truth.

Also, she will make sure Obama’s legacy is overwritten with hers. Obama will become a footnote in history.
