CSNews.com) - Joel Benenson, Hillary Clinton's campaign strategist, says if he could do things differently in the final weeks of the campaign, he'd ask for a "faith forum" to compare Clinton and her Republican rival Donald Trump on religious grounds.

Berenson, appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press, was asked by host Chuck Todd, "If the election were the first Tuesday in January and you had another six weeks here, what`s one thing you would do differently in the last four weeks of the campaign?"

"I would do more states. I would hit more states more frequently," Benenson responded.

In other words, "If I could do it over again, I'd know all the answers in advance."

Faith in what?

“activist social justice faith — the roll-up-your-sleeves and get-your-hands-dirty faith”

In other words, she believes in what suits her fancy.

No, they just realize now that they took their victory for granted and they would like more of the votes from the "little" people by pretending to care more about you. If he really thinks that would have made a difference he wasn't paying attention to the fact that she is viewed as untrustworthy by a large segment of the population. Donald Trump may be as well, however, we only get that impression from the press, not Donald himself. On the other hand, we get our impression from Hillary herself, while the press tries in vain to tell us differently.

We aren't buying it no matter how much more time they they got or what they did differently.

So, what we would have seen in a faith forum was more screeching and talking down to the ‘Deplorables’.

Now that you put it that way, I think they did indeed miss an opportunity.

You probably know as well as I do that there are too many mealy-mouthed, milquetoast Christians who would fall for her slithery rhetoric.

If you corrupt fools had just let the will of your voters play out Bernie Sanders might have won. Of course even though he’s a flaming communist, Sanders is not tied into the Crony-Capitalist/Globalist gravy train, so your party could never give him a fair shot.

I should see if I can find some of my posts from three years ago saying that Hillary was such a horrifyingly bad candidate in so many respects that she would never win the presidency.

;Faith forum with Hillary??? What the heck could she say? Talk about her worship of Saul Alinsky, the actual “god” she worships? Talk about how she once called a book he wrote a fulfillment of revelation???

If Hillary talked of her true faith she would lose support among people of faith, not enhance her standing.

Who is Benenson kidding?

The only time Hillary gets on her knees is when she’s standing in front of Huma.

Sincerity is most important.

Once you can fake that, you’ve got it made.

Always with the phony focus groups, and phony triangulation. These people wouldn't know a real, genuine, common man issue if it bit them in the ass. Screw them. They need to be ground into fine dust.
