Clinton says Comey's letter, Russian hackers cost her the election
reuters ^ | May 2, 2017 | John Whitesides

Hillary Clinton said on Tuesday she was on the path to victory in the 2016 presidential election until late interference by Russian hackers and FBI Director James Comey scared off some potential supporters.

In her most extensive public comments on the Nov. 8 election, Clinton told a New York conference she was derailed by Comey's Oct. 28 letter informing Congress the FBI had reopened the probe of her use of a private email server and by the Wikileaks release of campaign chairman John Podesta's emails, allegedly stolen by Russian hackers.

Not soon enough, but the time is coming when no one will want to hear what she says.

She will be in the same category as Jimmy Carter, Mike Dukakis, Walter Mondale, Al Gore, John Kerry, now even Bill Clinton (he’s got the senile shakes, stare and gaping mouth, yikes) — of them put away in the closet.

Hillary is probably headed toward a bad case of alcoholism where she will bore everyone in sight or sound of her. To me, she’s there already.

If the democrats ever wake up, they will realize what a drag she has been on the party and she will go away — just like Howard Cosell did in his later years.

Yes she did. Freaked out one reporter and another had serious concern on her face. Neurological would be my guess.

But, the liberals go with:

Russia!
Russians!
RUSSIANS FROM RUSSIA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIEEEEE!!!

Just gotta keep the lies going. Hey, it worked for Obama for 8 years, so they see no reason to stop now.

And don’t forget the pissed-off Bernie supporters who stayed home on election day.

We all remember Marcel Lazar, aka “Guccifer” who hacked Sidney Blumenthal’s account, providing access to his and Clinton’s private emails. He also claims to have hacked Clinton’s server in Chappaqua.

the man was extradited from Romania and sits in US jail specifically for those crimes - is anyone now claiming he was a Russian agent?

“late interference by Russian hackers and FBI Director James Comey scared off some potential supporters.”

No she scared off her voters all by herself. Neither of the Clintons (or Obola for that matter either) ever accept the fact that their own mistakes created their problems.
It is a corollary to “The reason that Socialism/Marxism has never worked isn’t because it’s a failed idea, but rather it’s just that the wrong people have been in charge of the implementation! The next time we try it WILL work!”

No Dearie, YOU cost yourself the election. You are an evil corrupt woman and the American people saw through your lies and insincerity.

You said it....Hitlery is in serious denial.

Of course, her being an unlikeable, corrupt, annoying, shrill Marxist bi*ch who held few if any sparsely attended rallies had nothing to do with it. s/

She sold political favors for bribes. If she wants to know who to blame I am sure she can find a mirror somewhere.

So she’s saying that if she hadn’t been caught being a sleaze bag and outed to the public she would have won?

More credit should be given to the man who took the phone video of her being tossed into the back of her SUV like a side of beef on 9/11/2016. She was not healthy enough to stand on her own and that was clear to anyone who bothered to watch.

Am I allowed to say Horse Puckey here?

None of the liberal idiots EVER CONSIDERS the content of the emails....and that’s what brought her down. If, indeed, she was actually up, which is questionable.

I love to confront liberal friends and neighbors with the simple question: What exactly does hacking mean? Did the Russians tamper with individual voting machines? Because if they didn’t do that, they didn’t interfere with the election.

I am met with dumb stares....Some people should just drool in the corner for the rest of their sorry lives.

I hope she runs again just for the schadenfreude of watching her get beat senseless once more.

I heard part of it.

So here her and the DNC leak audio of Trump in a trailer which was supposed to sink him, then BAMO, Wikileaks puts their stuff out and she did not like that.

... Comey's Oct. 28 letter informing Congress the FBI had reopened the probe of her use of a private email server...what she conveniently forgets to mention is that only four days later Comey released another letter saying again that there had been no finding of any wrongdoing - thus reinforcing and reminding the world that he had previously announced that she had done nothing wrong with the server - if anything, the Comey affair helped her in the election.....

Did this POS mention that the info that was hacked was accurate and put forth a picture of criminal activity and collusion beyond the scope of anything that had occurred in US Politics since the 1800s?
