Take away the spurious attacks by the tin foil hat conspiracy crowd and HRC looks like a decent candidate.

The only thing that makes her look decent is the complete disaster that is Trump. The bar is set so low, Hillary has the lowest ever likability/trust/approval that still somehow passes for reasonable.

They have been in power too long and they have become arrogant. A message needs to be sent out and that means vote the independent guy in and let the big parties reorganize their sh$t together.
They are not going to change anything because the Party structure is monolithic and is totally dependent upon transferring money from the middle class to the politicos and Billionaire class for subsistence. The only way out for the middle class is a totally separate movement that fractures the Government/Billionaire Monolith and puts certain policies back in place such as the reinstatement of Glass-Steagall and total dismantling of the trade treaties.

Other than the the devasting suffering that the neo-liberals have caused for untold millions all over the world, Clinton is just fine ... I guess until the neo-liberals also start suffering.

The reason so many are suspicious of HRC is likely due to the unrelenting attacks from Republicans.

She he has been accused of every sort of evil from murdering her friends to having thick ankles and hair on her toes.

Look at the names she is called on C-D threads and the daily "news" that recently hacked emails or ?? will bury her.

She has yet to be charged, let alone convicted in a court of law. Yet the attacks continue.

So many are confused. Vote for the Republican party to avoid long term damage to America.

Open your eyes if you care at all. The devastation caused by neo-liberals and neo-cons is everywhere and no where near peaking. If you don't care, as many do not, vote for her.

If you want to talk suffering, you need to start with the Republic President who destabilized the Middle East.

No, its likely because its one of those scenarios that where theres smoke theres fire with Hillary. Maybe she isn't able to be convicted on the info out there, but thats mostly because of her smarmy background and tactics as an ex lawyer. She knows what to say and when to say it. She lied to the American public about the emails, and continues to do so. It puts everything else she says into question. She also has a history of racist comments, demeaning and dismissing the sexual abuse victims of her husband, and previously being anti-gay rights.

Trump gets no passes here either, but thats my point, he is so awful that she seems almost passable.

Open your eyes to what?

These accusations against her are regularly debunked by the Pulitzer Prize winning PolitiFact.
