8 Reasons Hillary Clinton’s Campaign Will Be A Trainwreck
The Federalist ^ | 04/13/2015 | By Mollie Hemingway

Hillary Clinton has announced what everyone’s known for years: She’s running for the Democratic nomination for president. Anyone not a Democratic partisan who was old enough to be mildly cognizant by the late 1990s is sighing. After all the scandals and lies and claims of victim status, do we really need to go through all that again?

Clinton’s announcement on April 12 comes 16 years to the day after a “Federal judge held President Clinton in contempt of court … saying he had willfully provided false testimony under oath” in a sexual misconduct lawsuit. Yes, the Clinton 1990s were full of absolutely salacious details (I’d avoid footnotes 210 and 237 of the Starr Report) about sexual harassment, regular fundraising scandals involving foreign countries, many lost documents, crony capitalism and everything else. But it was exciting enough the first time. I’m not entirely sure we can handle the second round.

Anyway, here are a few things to look forward to with the very tiring news that a tired Hillary Clinton is running again for president.

1. Reporters Will Never Ask Hard Questions About Hillary’s Record

Yesterday a New York Times political reporter wondered why only Hillary was being pressed by the press to answer why she wants to be president.

Why, among all candidates, is only Hillary being pressed by the press to answer, Why do you want to be pres? http://t.co/dDJfUV7mH8

The tweet links to a Washington Post article by Dan Balz addressing the question. I jokingly responded, “I’ll take ‘because it’s such a puffball question’ for $400,

I see some see.... HELLery as TOAST......

Bush Jr... seriously resembled Alfred E. Nueman... i.e. Madd Mag..
Jeb can do a Jethro Clampett standing on his head.. i.e. Bev Hillbills..

Wonder WHO does the type casting for the democrats..

Which is why we need to be doing everything in our power as a conservative voting block to wipe them out.

These people are the reasons we lose elections. Sure, we have candidates that occasionally say something stupid, but the Democrats get a pass when their candidate says or does something stupid.

These "reporters" go out fishing for gaffes from our side. When they can't find any, they try to manufacture them.

The journalism industry needs to be wiped out until it gets back some objectivity. That's not going to happen so long as it engages in partisan hiring and promotion practices.

We need to wipe out the existing system, and replace it with a fair and objective one.

Thanks in no small part to the pathetic weakness that is the Republican Party.

Agreed; I don’t think it matters who the GOP candidate is, she still wins. The Republicans will beat themselves up during the primary and when the primaries are over we will have a weak candidate and a fractured Republican base with some claiming they will never vote for the candidate because their views are not 100% theirs or they are too liberal, or whatever the issue is. Bottom line is 45% of the voting public will vote for Hillary no matter what she or Billy has done. The other 40% will vote Republican no matter who the Candidate is. And the other 15% will be independents or disgruntled Republicans.

Wonder if anybody thinks she actually rides that
van any farther than from an airport to the next
campaign venue. If I had to drive the bitch around
I would be looking for a bridge to practice my
Teddy Kennedy routine.

PEGGY NOONAN OBSERVING HILLARY IN ACTION: "Never in modern political history has such tenacity and determination been marshaled to achieve such puny purpose: the mere continuance of Them.....unprincipled narcissists in a WH thoroughly penetrated by the political left."

Hillary is precisely the wannabe the Founders guarded against---a power-monger with an army of acolytes, lying in wait to undo the govt that protects everyday Americans and our freedoms.

Seeing Hillary's "announcement" on a news segment was unnerving----arrogantly announcing her presidential whims amid middle class people going about their business----was downright scary.

Hillary looked like an alien from outer space.

Americans should be asking---why did this political retread raise $2.5 billion for a job worth about $2 million w/ perks and a plane?

Nominate a real conservative and find out. We’ve had the pick of the plaid pants crowd since Reagan with not much to show for it.

Ted Cruz will beat Hillary like a drum.

Unless you think the plaid pants crowd will vote for Hillary instead.

She doesn’t have her husband’s likeability or political gifts.

No, indeed. They do connect on one level, though. He's a rapist, and she's a rapist enabler.

The GOP “Primary” process will be what it has been. It is designed to be shaped by the democrat/communist media/entertainment/academia propaganda complex to produce a squishy weak candidate guaranteed to lose. It produced Bush, Dole, Bush again, McCain and Romney. The only reason Bush won twice is that the democrats put up even more pathetic losers.

Pray to God that Hilary! turns out to be an even more pathetic loser than Gore and Kerry. It’s the only chance we’ve got.

8 Reasons Hillary Clinton’s Campaign Will Be A Trainwreck

I presume photo # 1 was from 2008, and photo # 2 is from 2015 ...

Hillary genuinely still had some "youthful exhuberance" left in her in 2008 ...

but the 2015 photo shows a "battle ax" ... the kind that high school kids dreaded being sent to for a "session" ...

This is "over" even before it begins ...

How in the hell will the MSM camera crews "censor" Hillary's old age during the upcoming debates ?

David Schippers, the chief investigative counsel for the Clinton impeachment, wants to be sure Americans know just who
contributed to the debacle and how. A trial attorney and a Democrat, Schippers was hired by Republican congressman Henry
Hyde to lead an oversight investigation of the Justice Department, then was redirected to handle the impeachment. The
quintessential honest man, Schippers was shocked, not so much by Clinton's actions (which he calls a far-reaching conspiracy
to obstruct justice with perjury, lies, and witness tampering), but by Republican and Democratic politicians who sold out the
impeachment process.

If you ever want to vote again, you might not want to know what went on behind the scenes in the Capitol Hill meat grinder
leading up to and during the impeachment proceedings against William Jefferson Clinton.... Lies, cowardice, hypocrisy, cynicism,
amorality, butt-covering--these were the squalid political body parts that, squeezed through the political processor, combined to
make a mockery of the impeachment process.

Hillary doesn’t need to make political statements on the campaign trail.....b/c her “running mates” will make policy.
US voters should know that the 2016 Democrat candidate is not Hillary-—its all the Clinton Foundation donors-—govts, corporations, companies, global govt agencies, non-profits, foundations, and individuals——lying in wait to get pay back-—with interest.

So who are Hillary and Bill beholden to? Who is lying in wait for her presidential pen to unleash zillions of tax dollars in interest?

News organs report the infamous tax-exempt Clinton Foundation took billions from foreign governments.....govts that a putative president Hillary would make policy for, and for which she would wield the presidential pen.

The problem for the Buckraking Clintons isnt the morally reprehensible pocketing of foreign mega-bucks---it's what exactly they are doing with the foreign monies once its in their Foundation's tax-exempt coffers.

A CLUE---Court documents in Clinton pal Jeffrey Epstein's underage sex investigation show that Epstein had 21 private e-mail addresses and phone numbers listed for Clinton and Clinton factotum, Doug Band.

Epstein kept Bill Clinton on speed dial as reports surfaced about Clinton attending sex parties at Epstein's "Orgy Island." Lawyers perusing documents stumbled upon e-mail addresses and 21 phone numbers for the fun-loving ex-president and his personal aide, Doug Band, stashed away in Jeffrey Epstein’s electronic directory, according to court documents.

QUESTION: Why does Clinton need 21 phone numbers? Does every phone number have an address and/or PO box number? Because L/E knows multiple phone no's is an indication of possible money-laundering and tax evasion.

CASE IN POINT One two-year federal investigation revealed an elaborate web to carry out multiple frauds. The frauds were carried out using non-existent people using fake identities, fraudulent SS nos, and phony tax ID numbers.

A sophisticated system of telephone voice-mail accounts and post office boxes were created to avoid detection. The charges involved racketeering, money laundering, wire fraud, making false statements, and bank fraud.
