Hillary Clinton on Thursday night attributed her defeat to a convergence of two “unprecedented” events: the release of a letter by James B. Comey, the F.B.I. director, shortly before the election, and what she called an “attack against our country” by the Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin.
[…]
Mrs. Clinton said the letter Mr. Comey released disclosing new questions about emails handled by her private server had cost her close races in several battleground states. “Swing-state voters made their decisions in the final days breaking against me because of the F.B.I. letter from Director Comey,” she said.
The Russians, she said, sought to “undermine our democracy” through cyberattacks on Democratic targets. She said the hacking into the Democratic National Committee and into the emails of her campaign chairman, John D. Podesta, were a result of Mr. Putin’s “personal beef” against her, pointing to her accusation that Russia’s 2011 parliamentary elections were rigged.





does this show that if Hillary runs again in 2020 she can win since the FBI And Russia might be off her back?
That's probably true. Unless, of course, you're one of the ones who believe that Trump didn't win.

It was a punch line long before Trump came into the picture.

Thanks for reinforcing what many of us already knew.
It seems to have not. We had no business being in Benghazi to start with and people actually, to my surprise, held her accountable for the lies told.

The truth is, she lost because of who she is, and because of her policies, which are Obama's policies on steroids. She is a liar, a cheat, and a criminal.

Lets be honest, Comeys "timing" indeed hurt Clinton, but no where near as much as Clinton lying about things like Russian "hacking"....

So in other words you agree that when the Russians revealed she cheated at the debates that it really hurt her campaign. Agree?

Um, maybe she should take responsibility for cheating?

Sure it hurt her...but then again that was because of having what appears to be a child predator sex-offender attached to your inner-circle.

No cheating at the debates, no weiner using their computer, no destroying your server in the first place either.....it was all self-inflicted.

If you can step away from a party line and think a moment... Obama keeping his mouth close served Trump and not Hillary... Trump isn't stupid... why did Trump say Obama was a good man after the White House meeting? hehehe Cause he WAS for him... Trump knew about the briefings etc.. the effort is for YOU not to know... Donor Class are loyal among themselves period.

You will start to see a lot of strange bedfellow moments that reflect the shadow of something beyond party line slogans and excuses ready made for a willing party soldier. It don't even have to make sense lol.

How about Obama keeping his mouth shut, Cause Hillary to lose the election. Who instructed Hillary to ignore the Blue States... did she REALLY want to win? Since we're throwing silly reasons around LOL Everybody have their role to play...




I seem to recall Obama jumping around the States stumping for Clinton and saying "She is the best, most qualified candidate for President ever".


Did you write this story this morning?

The Russians didn't reveal anything. They were not the source of the "hacked" emails. That's what Hillary claims. It isn't true, and Julian Assange has said so.

As well as her many other lies, such as the ones pertaining to her private email server, Benghazi, etc., etc. And her campaign was doomed long before Comey "reopened" (it was never closed) the investigation. Her goose was already cooked by the time he sent the letter to Congress saying they were going to take another look. The mainstream media had been lying about her popularity in the polls for many, many months. Perhaps the only states they polled were California and New York? There was no visible support for her here in Ohio ...ever.

It's being reported the Russian hacking started during the Republican primaries, that's how Trump won the Republican nomination.
