I can't imagine what she had to go through . . . . . how many times has Bill humiliated her publicly?

Then all those silly investigations by Congress, leading to the ultimate shaming by Ken Starr. The failed health care initiative. The 2008 primary. 9 Benghazi hearings.

She definitely deserved the email server thing, though. That was dumb, though she is probably horrendous with technology matters in general -- the staff gave her a book called, "Emails for Dummies" less than two years before the server was implemented.

She is secretive because of her fear of being humiliated again - I don't think she put the server up for sinister, criminal purposes; it doesn't justify what she did, but I could see her motivations.

I never lost sleep because I have sleeping pills, but I have been upset over the election, and I certainly hope that HRC wins. If she doesn't then I may begin to really lose sleep, pills or no pills. This comes from a person who never worried about a republican getting into office until Trump. This country doesn't need that kind of change because it would be much like Germany in the 40s.

I agree, I wasn't even that worried when Bush Jr won, more disappointed. This time the thought of Trump being the President is scary. The only time I was previously worried was when Sarah Palin was potentially the vice president and a heartbeat from the Presidency.

I woke up at 4:15 this morning, knowing I wouldn't go back to sleep. I'm nervous, but hopeful. The thought of what a Trump presidency would do to our standing in the world makes my stomach churn. The only way I've gotten through the last two months is with the help of some antacids.

I get so emotional when I think about this long journey and how hard HRC fought. She battled so much vitriol, lies, hatred, abuse--and here she is.

I pray she wins tomorrow. Love trumps hate.
So you're down with a candidate who giggles while Libyan families bury loved ones in a country that she deliberately targeted for destruction.

One thing I have to say is that I have met a lot of nice people on this forum because of this election. (even some of the ones on the other side are great people, we just differ in our opinions).

This is what a Democracy is, and we are exercising it fully on these threads. It has been a pleasure interacting with all of you these past months.

And, I will say it........if Donald Trump is elected, I will accept it and go on with my life. Probably you will not hear a Trump supporter say that if Hillary wins, but I mean it.

_"Hillary Clinton, 'Smart Power', and a Dictators Fall"_
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/us...ton-libya.html

It was the most stable, economically advanced country in North Africa. She wants to do the same thing to Syria.

Proud of yourselves?

No, this is not "what a democracy is." This country was deliberately not founded as a democracy--two wolves and a sheep deciding on what's for dinner--but rather as a constitutional republic.

It's no coincidence that Democrats have so much in common with the DPRK, with the GDR, with Democratic Kampuchea,....

Hillary sent state goons to beat Gennifer Flowers's lawyer into a pulp and leave him for dead. They broke half the bones in his body. She ran Bill's administrations.

Her former solutions provider Larry Nichols says she shacked up with Webb Hubbell in order to make partner.

The Clintons are violent psychopaths.
