Hillary Clinton’s week just went from bad to worse
Washington Post ^ | February 11, 2016 | Chris Cillizza

Posted on 02/11/2016 12:27:22 PM PST by McGruff

Losing New Hampshire by 22 points to an avowed socialist was bad enough for Hillary Clinton. But then came the news -- first reported by WaPo -- that the State Department had opened a inquiry regarding the activities of the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation during her time time as secretary of state. And bad went to way, way worse.

By my count, this latest State Department inquiry makes for three active investigations by the federal government that touch directly or indirectly on the 2016 Democratic presidential front-runner.

1. The newly revealed State inquiry into the Clinton Foundation and top Clinton aide Huma Abedin

2. The ongoing State inquiry into Clinton's private email server

3. The FBI investigation into Clinton's email server

The DEMe is realizing she is a shrill lackluster dog of a candidate, and are using the server episode to kick her to the curb.

If this were anyone else, they’d already be in a Federal penitentiary.

How can the Dems possibly go on with her as their only non-Bernie candidate?

Thousands of women chose hell over Hillary.

I’m not getting my hopes up too high, but I hope this kind of steady drip drip drip destroys her. As long as I’m hoping, I hope there is a jail cell and orange jumpsuit waiting for her at the end of the line. After a suitably long time in a federal prison, she can go home and play grandma.

“There is, without question, a desire on the part of many Republicans to cast Clinton in the worst possible light using almost any means necessary. But it strains credulity to believe that Republicans somehow concocted a way to get the State Department and the FBI to look into Clinton’s tenure at State.

As I wrote in this space this week, at some point Clinton will need to directly face down the fact that it’s not just Republicans who are talking about her emails or her paid speeches or the Clinton Foundation. The numbers coming out of the New Hampshire exit poll make plain that Democratic voters care about honesty in their politicians, and those that prize it the most are voting heavily against Clinton.”

Bernie needs to grow a pair and confront her head on using this Washington Post’s decidedly left leaning opinion against her in the televised debate tonight. So far he has refused to attack her, mean while she steals delegates right from under his 22 point victorious nose. If he is serious about winning, he will take her on publicly on the issue of honest and integrity (he’s pussy-footed around the subject by hitting her on taking money from wallstreet).

By the way, its time all the Republican candidates, including and especially Trump, take time out from attacking each other and focus their individual efforts on finishing off Hillary while she still struggles in her primary.

Easily I think. Consider that she had a huge number of delegates in the bag before any primaries had occured. Basically it was assumed she would be coronated. Bernie at the time was just a placeholder to make it look like an election. If she were to leave now I doubt it would make much difference. Bernie is taking on a life of his own so for dems who cares since he’s It. She’s unable to attract any true momentum and being thrown under the bus would be no big deal. Shed be just an annoying footnote to this election.

As these drip drip drip investigations expand beyond her thighness, it is wonderful that being brought into the web is Bill the leather and now by being a principle in the Clinton Crime Family sham none other than the NBC wonder kin, Chelsea Hubbell.

She’ll never be prosecuted. Obama won’t allow it. He wants a Democrat President more than anyone on the planet. A Republican President, House, Senate and 3 Supreme Court Justices might mean the end to everything he has done.

HA! If the perp had an (R) after her name, they would have already been executed and revived 87 times, and the entire world media would have been cheering and showing each and every execution in slow motion, black and white, green and blue, and with every imaginable camera angle.

No, keep her in a cell until she needs Hospice care. Then send her home.

I suspect most GOP candidates now would rather run against Hitlery given she is getting arrowed each and every day in the media. Once the media signaled they were tossing in the towel on her, she is dead in the water. I expect the media to being trumpeting a challenge from either Biden or Lurch or ABC (anyone but clinton).
