Wrong. We get it, and see it for what it is, even though you do not, or choose not to admit that you do. Stop making up rationalizations for your earlier baseless aspersion cast at Kelly.
Well baseless? Ma Foie! It's been fun but I have to leave to go to work to manage a bunch of aggressive women in hooker dresses and heels....who need me. go figure

And I'm not saying vote Hillary. Do what you want. Just know that there's a real possibility that the Republican nominee has molested several women. If you're ok with that, so be it. Hillary has not molested anyone to my knowledge, and yes, there's a possibility that her husband has. Which says more about Bill than it does about her. Go ahead and vote for pseudo-Libertarian Gary Johnson or unqualified hippie Jill Stein if you like.

No skepticratic you don't understand it. Regardless if Bill is not running for president he is still in the white house and very involved with both the national image and power.

I have no issue if Trump flirted and bedded many women if it were done respectfully. All men have private conversations like he did with the reporter. Where I draw the line is that Bill Clinton flew numerous times on a private jet owned by a convicted pedophile to a private island that was in fact known as a place were underage sex occurred with young girls. Its even alleged that Bill Clinton bedded one of these young girls.

So you saying that Bill is not running for president is like saying the scout leaders wife is who will be running the scout troops while her sex offender husband is simple providing her assistance since he is experienced

Yes baseless. Go back and watch the video. Then check out Kellyanne Conway's photo in her Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kellyanne_Conway

They are dressed in comparable attire.

Kelly was obviously hostile and aggressive from the get go, she kept escalating with an incendiary tone, and finally, Newt had enough and responded in kind. Once she had Newt disgusted, she tried to tone it back down and play the victim, it was rather hilarious. You can see her fuming early on in the interview when she looked away from the camera at her notes.

Methinks newt doest protest too much.
Megan Kelly's anti-Trump bias was obvious, every position she took on Trump was negative. What if he loses, what if he causes the senate to switch parties, what if he's a sexual predator. Stating all her negative opinions on Trump is her expressing an opinion. Can't even bring herself to say Clinton and sexual predator in the same breath.

Speaking of sexual predators, Kelly could not get all those women on her show fast enough, to accuse Trump of assault. She never spent a minute trying to verify their stories first.

Kelly was a good attorney once, now she has become a useful idiot. She accepts rumor, innuendo, and allegations which not only cannot be proven, but are 30 years old, and tries to play them off as legitimate.

At first it appeared you were talking about bill clinton.. If we can believe hillary, she said she was going to put Bill in charge of the economy.


Do you want an adulterous, sexual perv misogynist, naccissist running the economy????

Donald Trump was an adulterer and Donald Trump is on the ticket. It sounds like Trump was bragging to Billy Bush that he was still cheating when married to #3. Should we demonize #3 for not divorcing Trump? Should Trump be telling #3 to divorce him? By the way, Newt Gingrich and Rudy Giuliani cheated on their wives as well. It makes me laugh to hear Newt Gingrich of all people talk about marital fidelity when he has been married as often as Trump.

Exactly. The hypocrisy of the GOP is absolutely unbelievable, whether it is Trump manufacturing overseas, hiring H1B workers, cheating on his wife, etc. being defended by Newt Gingrich of all people Hillary was cheated on and chose to keep her family intact.

Oh yeah...and he was cheating on her at the same time to boot. What a man!

Umm I think you missed my point and then derailed my post by filling it with all sorts of stuff I wasn't even talking about.

I dont think Newt was discussing marital fidelity but rather pointing out the hypocrisy of going after Trump for his discretion's when Bill Clinton seems to have many more. The irony is this was said by a man who also had as many as both men so at least he is an expert on the matter.

Practically every position every interviewer takes with any campaign surrogate from either side is negative.

That is their job... to ask about the negatives.

The positives are called "campaign advertising". The media's job is to provide balance (read: the other side of the coin) from the campaign advertising and public statements by the candidates.

If it seems that there are more negatives with regard to Trump than with regard to Clinton, that's because, compared to Clinton, Trump is a serial liar, a misogynist, temperamentally unfit to be POTUS, and generally unqualified for the real work of leading the entire nation.
