W. Bush did cocaine for two decades and that's not baggage?
Ronald Reagan's biographer said he was traumatized by the death of his child and devastated by his divorce. Those are not baggage? In fact, Reagan had Alzheimer while in office. Baggage indeed.
Jeb Bush's daughter was a drug addict. Talk about baggage.
The thing is, everybody has to deal with S___ in their lives. Find me someone who doesn't have baggage by the time they are old enough to run for president and I'll find you an unaccomplished boring loser.

I give you eyewitness testimony via a well-respected, non-partisan journalist (who was actually recruited by the Clintons to do the book). Plus similar behavior is relayed from many other sources, including the Secret Service.
What are the sources for your charges? I don't doubt that Reagan was traumatized by his divorce and death of his infant daughter, but that is hardly in the same category as domestic violence over a period of years. The other charges sound bogus. Link? Quote? No Daily Kos or ThinkProgress, please.
Republicans don't want to talk about issues at all. It's all about how old Clinton is, whether she and her husband have an active sex life, their daughter's looks - anything but substance. Clinton gives a speech a couple days ago about the outrageous incarceration numbers in the US, calls for reform of the criminal justice system, but the only discussion she gets is drivel like the OP. Do Republicans seriously think they can win an election with this nonsense? Are there any ideas on the right? Just one?
What we need is a conspiracy theory to entertain us!
How about this? Hillary Clinton hired the outside troublemakers in Baltimore to distract the media from Clinton Cash and...she's really taller than she pretends to be and she will only stand in a hole to be photographed. She's going for the short people demographic.
I know this because my uncle's next door neighbor's daughter's boyfriend's mother said so.
While I won't be voting for Hillary Clinton, to me she is the least objectionable D out there, because she has grown to be non-ideological at this stage of her life.
But still there are things that give me pause about putting her in the White House. Bill and Hillary had a history of domestic violence. From Blood Sport: The President and his Adversaries by James B. Stewart, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist:
(Roger Perry was an Arkansas trooper assigned to the Arkansas gov. detail)
(from Blood Sport p 172).
Another trooper, Larry Patterson, would often drive Bill to the Quapaw Towers, an apartment complex where Gennifer Flowers lived. Bill would tell the trooper that he had a meeting with his former aide Maurice Smith, who also lived there. But the trooper said that Maurice Smith was a notorious cigar smoker, and Bill would return to the car reeking of perfume.
Hillary has been through a lot of emotional trauma because of Bill. Supposedly they have not had sex for over 20 years. Is it a good idea to have someone like that in the WH, and as commander in chief? She was the victim in this scenario, so she did little or nothing wrong. Still that is a lot of emotional baggage to be carrying into 1600 Penn. where she would have to make life/death calls, with no one above her on the organizational chart to overrule her.

Did you actually read what you wrote? You gave a passage from an eye witness who observed the couple being mad and then there were some broken glasses. Where is the domestic violence that you attributed? I found no police report and nothing official that document it. If you want to operate with facts as you claim, you should present it. Not heresay.
