Hillary Clinton Operatives Bracing For “Clinton Collapse”
DC Whispers ^ | July 24, 2015

Posted on 07/26/2015 5:37:18 AM PDT by Zakeet

Earlier, D.C. Whispers reported on federal investigators’ request to initiate a full on CRIMINAL investigation into the Hillary Clinton email scandal due, at least in part, to Mrs. Clinton’s alleged and purposeful destruction of classified material she kept on a private email server. Apparently this development is but one of several now plaguing a Hillary Clinton campaign that has a candidate who often appears “lost, confused, tired, and angry.”

The term “Clinton Collapse” is apparently an increasingly common one these days for those whose job it is to continue insulating their candidate from media scrutiny and try and push Mrs. Clinton across the eventual finish line that is the Democratic Party nomination – no easy task given Clinton herself appears increasingly unstable, politically speaking.

…This past week saw campaign operatives trying to figure out how to break the news to candidate Clinton regarding her sudden drop in several battleground states that show her losing by wide margins to potential rivals like Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio, and Scott Walker. When that news was finally delivered, Hillary Clinton is said to have initially brushed it off.

Mere hours later she proceeded to lash out her handlers, and then went on to blame what she perceives to be “unfair media coverage.”

A D.C. Whispers source had this to say regarding Mrs. Clinton’s view of the modern media:

“She doesn’t understand how it works. She still thinks the New York Times is the end-all, be-all regarding media coverage and because they (the Clinton Machine) pretty much control how the Times covers them, she feels she controls her own media destiny and when that doesn’t happen, it infuriates her. She gets very angry very quickly and it’s a particularly aggressive kind of nasty on her part.”

Candidate Clinton’s mood swings have become so erratic even those closest to her campaign are said to be hoping for the best while preparing for what some perceive to be the inevitable worst.

“They know this entire campaign could collapse in a matter of days. Hillary Clinton is not her husband. She’s someone who doesn’t enjoy the work of a long political campaign. She doesn’t trust the process. Actually it goes beyond that – she hates the process. Truth be told, she hates people. Bill enjoyed pressing the flesh. Ok, not the best phrase when applied to him, but he was in his element out there in the midst of the unwashed masses. Hillary on the other hand, she gets this look in her eyes that isn’t so much about pressing the flesh, but wanting to burn it.”

The Hillary campaign is setting about trying to match the fundraising pace of Barack Obama’s 2008 and 2012 outings. They have publicly indicated their desire to raise at least 100 million dollars by the end of 2015. That remarkable figure is not merely about bragging rights though, but rather out of absolute necessity.

“There won’t be nearly as much free and positive press for Hillary Clinton as there was for Barack Obama. They all know that. It’s going to take a lot of money to build and maintain her image over the next several months. She’s not a low maintenance, lipstick and rouge candidate. Hillary Clinton requires major renovations that come up often and that takes serious cash to keep going. Her campaign will be on edge and in crisis mode much more often than is normal. That will be a huge burden on all those around her, and it seems is already causing Hillary to show some premature wear and tear already as well.”

Don’t forget, they still have two on the bench. One Nobel laureate (Albert Gore Jr.) and the 2016 Nobel Peace prize winner (John Kerry) Both of whom are Vietnam Vets, dontcha know.

Something doesn’t smell right about this. Smells like a planted sympathy whisper. People are deluding themselves, thinking that if they wish hard enough the Clintons will go away. Nothing sticks to the Clintons, too many friends, not enough surviving enemies to take the Clintons down. And probably all Mrs Doubtfire’s sisters, Bern, Uncle Joe, Focahantas and O’Mallet will all get super cabinet positions if she is crowned.

Don’t think it’s a coincidence that once the Swing-State polling numbers came out that Clinton wasn’t marked for removal.

The fact that there is a FEDERAL criminal investigation of her E-Mails means that President Obama had to have authorized it, as no career Justice Department flunkie would open an investigation that ‘sensitive’ without getting permission from his boss, who then would want permission from his boss, and then his boss, and finally landing in the White House.

So Obama must now figure that Hillary cannot win, and needs her replaced. That’s good for the country and gets her stain out of politics. Of course her replacement will be just as left-wing...but I think I can safely say that virtually no one on this site, and very few Republicans (other than maybe Chris Christie) want to see the Clintons around any longer than necessary.

Pobricita. She's been getting unfair media coverage for over twenty years.
