Yes, Podesta an idiot among idiots.
Those ginning up hysteria over unsubstantiated claims that the Russian government channeled email evidence of Clinton corruption to WikiLeaks, need to answer the following:
Was the American electorate better informed and enabled to evaluate Hillary Clinton by exposure of the Wikileak-ed emails, or if the public had been denied this information? The answer is obvious, as is the obvious conclusion: if the Russians played any role in this, they increased transparency, enlightened the electorate, and thus enhanced democracy.
Most of what they cited as ‘proof’ was not IP addresses or anything else. It was stories about Russians congratulating themselves......from 2012
The Dems are pushing this for a very real and (for them) necessary reason.
The Dems went heavier into voter fraud this election cycle than ever before. They believed they’d win across the board with all the fraud combined with their full ownership of both print and broadcast news and opinion. So, there was no viable threat that their rabid criminality would be exposed.
But, they lost. Now there’s no protection built into the system for them by their own ownership of all the federal venues of investigation.
So, there has to be someone else appointed and anointed as the source and cause of all that massive voter fraud.
And that’s why the narrative has morphed from “hacked the Clinton servers for wikileaks” to “hacked the elections”.
The DNC is not now, nor has it been for decades, anything other than an organized crime outfit. There are no innocents on the left anymore.
That question arose last night and I pondered an answer. Suppose that the Russians obtained the emails and tried to use them to blackmail Clinton. Suppose that Clinton, an arrogant ass if there ever was one, refused to cooperate. Suppose she made it clear that if they wanted anything from her administration, they would have to pay, and of course it would be her administration because she is Hillary Clinton and she deserves it.
Suppose the Russians then released the emails.
There is no evidence to prove any of this. Alternatively, there is the same amount of evidence to prove it as there is to support any other theory.
:D
I've read elsewhere that it was slightly modified: The at symbol ( @ ) substituted for the letter "a", and the number zero (0) substituted for the letter "o". e.g.: "p@ssw0rd"
(I guess he didn't think of using two dollar signs for the letter "s"es?)
Not that those modifications make that much of a difference. It would just take that 14-year old hacker a few minutes longer to crack.
Yeah, using any permutation of "password" is not a good idea. I'm surprised Yahoo Mail or whatever it was let him use it at all. Usually websites with decent security will kick back password attempts like that.
She has uttered a true statement. I'll alert the New York Times.

I understood it was Podesta’s gmail account that was hacked. Google likely let’s all the DNC elite do whatever they want.
I thought it was stupid of Podesta to even be using a free web account regardless of what password he used.
Yes, Podesta an idiot among idiots.
Everything from the “Russians hacked” is so ambiguous the goal is to have people assume Russians were hiding in the vote machines changing votes. Hacking an email with “password” as the password does not take any skills. Hillary’s “hacked” emails were released by the state department AFTER the FBI recovered them. Podesta fell for the stupid spam phishing emails and someone at the DNC leaked to Wikileaks. I believe Assange more than anything coming out of the current administration.
If that's what the Russians were doing, then they did a very poor job of it. All we heard 24/7 was how amazing Hillary was from every msm and how dangerous Trump was.
When has the left ever been upset about stealing information and revealing corruption?... when its a Dem’s corruption
