Oh, you mean like it is for Trump -- first, Comey is a traitor for deciding in July not to recommend prosecution; then, he's Trump's hero for releasing text about the existence of more emails; now, he's a Trump traitor again.

If a criminal like crooked Hillary can run and be elected the laws don't mean anything. They are just guidelines if you want to follow them.
Sort of like: if TRUMP wins, none of us will have to pay our bills! Yipee!

The difference is Hate/Love/Hate vs Love/Hate/Love. In your case you left off the Love at the end and stuck with Love/Hate.

The election is trying to be fixed by the lazy and partisan media, who repeat Trump lies without reporting them as false. The media refuses to report on policy issues -- which helps the candidate who lies about everything and has no coherent proposals.

The election is trying to be fixed by the media beating to death Hillary emails -- that after extensive investigation shows no malice, intent to hurt the nation, or financial gain -- the test of whether one is prosecuted.

Yes, the election is trying to be fixed by pro-Trump groups, but Hillary looks like she will prevail anyway.
^ This.

Exactly.

Why the media doesn't expose each lie each time he repeats one remains a mystery.

The Republicans are the ones trying to rig the election with their constant efforts at voter suppression. Mercifully, there are judges slapping these down left and right. North Carolina just had to reinstate several thousand voters that Republicans had illegally purged from the voting rolls.

Seriously, why even worry? Why waste your time running around repeatedly posting the same blather all over since Hillary has it in the bag anyway right?

IT'S HER TURN DAMN IT! <stomps foot>

Actually, health insurance premiums have risen slower in the last few years than expected, due to the ACA. Let us not also pretend that insurance premiums haven't risen by annual double-digits in the decade prior to the ACA. In a free-market system insurance companies have a right to raise prices.

Plus, this may all be a bunch of hype anyway, a negotiating tactic.

"In early September, Blue Cross and Blue Shield proposed a 14 percent increase in the premiums Calyx Engineers and Consultants’ employees would pay for health insurance in 2017."

"Last week, however, the Cary firm’s 145 employees found out that their insurance rates weren’t going up next year."

"Calyx didn’t ditch its insurer. Rather, Blue Cross agreed to scale back the increase. Such private negotiations make up the process of setting health insurance rates for North Carolinians who buy their coverage through their employers."

"Many employees who are now opening benefit packages to review and renew their health care coverage options for next year are seeing rate increases. Several health benefits consultants who advise businesses in the state say they’re expecting average premium increases of about 5 percent next year."
