Here we go again with Liberal Idiot Playbook Number One, eh?

"Portray any question as to legal wrongdoing as a politically-motivated attack for the good of the Party."

Next, I'm sure we'll get a staged smear campaign directed against those in charge of the investigation.

While a candidate might not know about some funds, as someone on FOX pointed out, decisions about $800,000 is not likely to go unnoticed by a candidate.

The DEMORATS couldn't sink the Swift Boats and they will not be able to keep crime from the American public . .

This is different. We're talking about the teflon mafia bitch now. The MSM fix is already in and based on history, Hillary will probably come away unscathed.

Lord, please let me be wrong....

I agree with you, we had better be prepared to run an issues campaign against her in 2008 aside from these "scandals" - because there is a huge block of voters that these stories don't reach, and the MSM will just filter it all out.

to be honest, a simple 527 ad with her on the Seante floor giving her "Bush knew" speech about 9/11, transitioning to a list of US national security lapses that took place while she and her husband held the white house for 8 years, would be more effective that this story in my opinion. not that this story isn't important mind you, its simply the political impact of it I question.

NBC is just upset that it was left out when CBS and ABC proved how in-the-tank they were for Democrats.

This is going to get uglier before it gets the whitewash. But it will get a good coat or two by both parties. No one in Washington is going to let Hilary Clinton go down the tubes as a common criminal. She is a former First Lady first and foremost in the politico's eyes. She may "retire" from the senate and resume a private life in Wherever as a trade-off, but no harm will come to Mrs. Clinton.

Is that a picture of the guy they had to "put away" because he accidentally saw Helen Thomas naked once? Poor chap.
