Poll: People Aren’t Really Paying Attention to Hillary Email Story | Mediaite

At best, according to Pew, only 34% of Republicans are interested in the Hillary email fiasco. The people polled identify themselves as Republicans, so it's safe to assume they are the base of the GOP, and only 34% care. This probably means a much smaller number of independents don't give a darn. This will be another failed smear job on Hillary.

RealClearPolitics - 2016 Presidential Race

Not a single Republican can beat Hillary. You know it's bad when Rasmussen goes to Hillary several points over all the Republicans. The GOP's biggest stars, Walker and Rubio, are both tea party lunatics, and they are the GOP's best chances it looks like. 2016 is shaping to be a 3rd Dem POTUS term, while the GOP wave of 2014 looks like will be short lived

She'll pull a Nixon and give a "Checkers" speech and that will be the end of that.

Signed....

I would be shocked if a Republican wins in. in 2016, but there could always be someone that comes out of nowhere. Just look at 2008.

History says we will have a republican president after Obama, but my gut tells me we will have another Democrat, due to poor Republican candidates.

The republican game plan this presidential election cycle, is to keep Hillary Clinton on the defensive. Attack, attack, attack. They will offer no platform, nor any viable alternatives to the programs they want to dismantle and destroy. Their whole campaign will be the destruction of Clinton rather than the selling of a republican candidate.
They have perfected the tactic of political assassination in the last 6 years, in their attempts to destroy President Obama and the American government as we know it.
By the time the Koch propaganda machine spends a billion dollars in political character assassination, the American citizen will think Clinton's E-Mail servers were responsible for Benghazi, Ukraine, Syria, Libya, the Malaysian Airliner and the Jewish Holocaust, for good measure.

Finding common cause with Iranian Hardlining warmongers, in an attempt to destroy the president's foreign policy efforts, shows the nation and the world that they will stop at nothing, even if it means starting world war III, in their bid to destroy our current form of government and replace it with something "yet to be determined" and unspoken by them.

Default Don't count on it

There is not a Republican alive who can beat Hillary Clinton. The Republican ideology stinks. Their record reeks. These desperation moves to somehow discredit Hillary by her emails, is low-class, petty GOP smear nonsense, since the GOP has nothing to run on.

They have tried to discredit President Obama for years, with their stupid nonsense. Same here with Hillary.

Right now Hillary is savaging her own campaign and we all know that democrats tend to turn on their own like wolves on the sick and weak. She'll find a way to bow out gracelessly.

If Hillary is charged with a crime. She will be ineligible to run. You can't serve from prison.

Smile Hillary's personal emails might bring down her presidential aspirations.......or not

Within a couple of months, this story will be forgotten. May not even last that long.

Right wingers: it's back to the drawing board.

Maybe you and/or Hillary supporters would like to create the impression no one cares except right wing nuts, but sleaze is sleaze no matter who you are. Hillary and Bill have been cold calculating ambitious narcissists doing any and everything possible to stay in power. It started on the presidential level when they both lied in the interview when he was running for potus, about his bimbo eruptions.

On some level I think we all accept that some, even a majority politicians are like this, and will lie & cheat to try and win at any cost.
However many people also say enough is enough, and the Clintons have gone well beyond anything acceptable. Most have not forgot him wagging his finger at us and directly lying to the American public that put him into office.

There is little doubt that she made a cold calculated decision to circumvent rules/laws to control her political image/future. Remember she is the exact same person who excoriated the Bush administration for as she put it, "shredding the Constitution for having personal email accounts";

So while the koolaid drinkers would try to explain away anything short of a video showing Hillary actually committing murder or strangling kittens, average Democrats, Independents, and moderate Republicans can smell the stench from her pulling this.

The sad thing is that she probably knew this would be an issue at some point, but calculated it would blow over vs. someone finding a smoking gun if she used State Department email like she was suppose to.

The same apologists claiming Benghazi is old news and there is nothing to find might not even realize she has never turned over her emails about it, because she had control, not the SD. Then again, what relevance would the Secretary of State who runs the SD emails have any bearing on, right?
Just another right wing conspiracy.
