Democrats should ask Hillary Clinton to step aside
The Chicago Tribune ^ | October 28, 2016 | John Cass

Posted on 10/29/2016 6:44:16 AM PDT by right-wingin_It

Has America become so numb by the decades of lies and cynicism oozing from Clinton Inc. that it could elect Hillary Clinton as president, even after Friday's FBI announcement that it had reopened an investigation of her emails while secretary of state?

We'll find out in a little more than a week.

It's obvious the American political system is breaking down. It's been crumbling for some time now, and the establishment elite know it and they're properly frightened. Donald Trump, the vulgarian at their gates, is a symptom, not a cause. Hillary Clinton and husband Bill are both cause and effect.

FBI director James Comey's announcement about the renewed Clinton email investigation is the bombshell in the presidential campaign. That he announced this so close to Election Day should tell every thinking person that what the FBI is looking at is extremely serious.

Trump is vulgar but cigar-chomping B. J. Clinton was a boy scout?

"Donald Trump, the vulgarian at their gates, is a symptom, not a cause."

At last someone in the media gets it.

That's right. I heard Barry saying that GOP was to blame for creating Trump. And while that was partially true if your talking about the GOP establishment, it was far more due to him and THEM and the rigged system. They should count their blessings that it's only "The Donald" this time around.

If she agreed to step down, all the votes for her ticket would still count on election day and count toward selecting electors for the Democrats. Then those electors can be instructed to vote for the replacement candidate when the electoral college votes, and in most cases they would be party loyalists who would comply.

Dems won’t do it, they are probably resigned to focusing on 2020.

The Democrats should withdraw her as their candidate.

If they were smart they’d take their chances with the gay VP.

I think this is the plan all along. The FBI and Comey are directed by the Whitehouse period. It is not the Republican congress as liberals are spewing all over the internet. This is coming from Obama.

I do not believe a word of what the media says anymore. Despite the fake polls I believe Trump is going to trounce the Beast and the Obama administration knows it. If that happens Hillary and Obama may go to prison.

Today, we gloss over stuff like this. We give it a cute sounding name, “meme.” But, it’s nothing more than old fashioned partisan, political lie.

She’s toast, the media could see what was going on and determined they couldn’t pull it off. SO now look for the media and pollsters to use this event to explain why her numbers will drop and Trumps will rise. “I’m seeing articles with titles or lines in them like: “Hillary was flying high until the FBI Diretor sent a letter to...”. The Trump surge was already happening. I call the excuse the media/pollsers will use as: “Losers Limp”

The descriptor of Trump as a “short-fingered vulgarian” originated in the now-defunct Spy magazine which had its heyday in the 1980’s.

Just a thought. Let's say Trump doesn't get the win, which would make lots of folks real suspicious. Won't even more folks be inclined to want to contest questionable balloting and vote counting?

No wonder the PTB tried to get Trump to say he wouldn't contest the outcome.

The Democrats need to stop dragging the country through the mud just to feed Clinton’s ego.

Clinton’s campaign is all about feeding her ego. Take her slogan, “I’m With Her”, which is completely self centered. Nothing about you & your country, only “Her”.

She calls this election “historic”, not because of any policy goal of hers, but because of... her crotch.

The Democrats need to tell her “No”

She also has medical issues

Add to that, this might drive her to drink.

Good point your making. That was the first thing I said to someone when I heard vague first morsel of this event — about it being a Dem dirty trick of some kind, because the FBI & DOJ are run by WH and showed how they were going to play it. So then, what’s the motivation for this? And I thought of a few things mentioned on other threads. I didn’t consider what your saying hear. Thanks.
