So will the scandals hurt or help Hillary? She is old, which is only a marginal problem, but so are her ideas; she is attached to a whole graveyard of failed dogmas, and has learned nothing from recent history except that stonewalling works if the media is your ally. She is corrupt. She is arrogant. She holds her adversaries in contempt. She will stop at nothing to win. And her supporters approve of all this, because these are the markers that enable them to recognize Hillary as one of their own.
Does this not astonish and flummox us? I realize the time lines might not be parallel, but consider that we are excoriating Russia about Ukraine and imposing sanctions on the one hand, and then we turn around and transfer uranium to RUSSIA! I would say that is SOME flexibility Obama is displaying!
